Public Overloads Sub Load( _
   ByVal reader As TextReader _
) 

Visual Basic (Usage)	Copy Code
Dim instance As ChartSerializer Dim reader As TextReader   instance.Load(reader)

public void Load( 
   TextReader reader
)

Parameters

reader

A reader that is derived from the abstract TextReader class (e.g. StringReader).

The text reader to load the data from.

The following example loads persisted appearance data into the control that is posted from the client to the server. Note that the ViewStateData property represents the actual data persisted in the web document.

Visual Basic	Copy Code
Imports System.IO Imports Dundas.Charting.Webcontrol ... If IsPostBack Then     Dim sr As New StringReader(Chart1.ViewStateData)     Chart1.Serializer.Content = SerializationContent.Appearance     Chart1.Serializer.Load(sr) End If

C#	Copy Code
using System.IO; using Dundas.Charting.Webcontrol; ... if(IsPostBack){        StringReader sr = new StringReader(Chart1.ViewStateData);    Chart1.Serializer.Content = SerializationContent.Appearance;    Chart1.Serializer.Load(sr); }

Call this method to load serialized data into the Chart control.

When a load operation occurs by default serializable properties are first reset to their default values before they are set to the persisted values (if saved). To change this behavior use the ResetWhenLoaded property.

By default all serialized chart properties will be loaded. By setting the Content, SerializableContent or NonSerializableContent properties a specific set of properties can be loaded.

When using this definition the format (set by the Format property) must be XML.

If the ViewStateData property is used to persist state then this method can be used to load the serialized data POSTED by the client back to the control . For more information see the State Management topic (also see the sample code below).
