Assembly: CS_SiteLib (in CS_SiteLib.dll) Version: 5.7.5016.0 (5.7.5016.0)
Syntax
Copy
protected virtual void WriteSections(
	TextWriter writer,
	string[] source,
	StringComparer stringComparer
)

Parameters

writer
Type: System.IOTextWriter
A TextWriter to write HTML content to
source
Type: SystemString
The entities that form the web map. Each member in the array is a string with the document name and the its ID separated by a pipe (|) character (example: "My document|1278")
stringComparer
Type: SystemStringComparer
A StringComparer object used when sorting the source data.
Examples
This is the standard implementation of the WriteSections method provided by Content Studio.
C#
Copy
protected virtual void WriteSections(TextWriter Writer, string[] Source, StringComparer StringCo)

    if (CSSPrefix.Length > 0)
        WriteAttribute(Writer, " class", CSSPrefix + "_ContentLists");
    Writer.Write(">" + Environment.NewLine);
