Examples

The following example shows how CustomMappingAttribute is used on the MapFrom(Object) method.

Note

Although the mapping applies to the MapTo(Object) method as well, only the MapFrom(Object) method is decorated with the attribute.

public partial class Book : ICustomMapping
{
    [CustomMapping(Columns = new String[] { "ISBN", "UPCA" })]
    public void MapFrom(object listItem)
    {
        SPListItem item = (SPListItem)listItem;
        this.ISBN = item["ISBN"];
        this.UPCA = item["UPCA"];
    }

    // Other members omitted.

}
