Question

I have ASP.Net project and I have added a reference of System.Windows.Forms to the project. Then I have created a class by inheriting it from a Windows control.

public class winButton : Button
{
   public winButton()
   {
      this.Text = "Test";
   }
}

Then I built the solution. Then I was expecting that I will be seeing an extra control of name ‘winButton’ in the toolbox. But I was not able to. So is it not correct what I am hoping? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

In the same solution I created a Winform project. My custom is visible in the toolbox now. So perhaps, controls inherited from Winform Control are not supported in Webform (ASP.Net) projects.
