Declaring an Enumerated Property
Sometimes it's convenient to have a property that limits the user to selecting from a fixed set of choices. For instance, in the VBSortedList.cst template, the Accessibility property controls the accessibility of the generated class:
To accomplish this, you need to take two steps. First, define an enumeration in a <script> block in your code:
<script runat="template"> Public Enum AccessibilityEnum [Public] [Protected] [Friend] [ProtectedFriend] [Private] End Enum </script>
Second, the Property directive should point to the enumeration:
<%@ Property Name="Accessibility" Type="AccessibilityEnum" Category="Options" Description="The accessibility of the class to be generated." %>
That's all there is to it!
