ASP.NET Syntax ASP.NET Page Syntax Page Directives
.NET Framework version 2.0
Provides a way to get strong typing against the previous page, as accessed through the PreviousPage property.
<%@ PreviousPageType attribute = "value" [ attribute = "value" ... ] %>
| Term |
Definition |
| TypeName |
Specifies the type name for the previous page. |
| VirtualPath |
Specifies the path to the file that generates the strong type. |
The @ PreviousPageType directive is used to get strong typing against the PreviousPage property. The @ PreviousPageType directive can only be used on a Web Forms page ( an .aspx file ). If both attributes, TypeName and VirtualPath, are defined, the @ PreviousPageType directive will fail.
The following code example demonstrates how to specify the path to a file that generates the strong type.
<%@ PreviousPageType VirtualPath = "~/SourcePage.aspx"%>
