Method Save

Save()

Saves the DockItem.

Declaration

protected virtual object Save()

Returns

Type	Description
System.Object	The saved object instance represents this DockItem. The default implementation returns string of the type when HideOnPerformClose is true, otherwise returns the DockItem itself. The derived class can override this method to provide its own implementation.

Remarks

When saving state of DockControl by calling Save(), the returned object instance is set as Target property of DockItemReference. This provides the flexibility that any object instance can be saved for the DockItem.
