Method and system for bidirectionally data binding a control of a template

摘要

A control is bound to a data item that provides a data binding context. Controls inside the template of a data bound control have properties which are bound to fields of the data item via a bidirectional data binding process. Bidirectional data binding allows a page developer to specify that a field in a data item is inserted into a control property value when a page is rendered on a client. Bidirectional data binding also allows the data-bound control to automatically and codelessly extract an arbitrary control property value associated with a data item field in a template when the page is posted back to the server.
