Public Overrides Function ShouldSerializeDescription As Boolean
'Usage
Dim instance As ListViewWebPart
Dim returnValue As Boolean

returnValue = instance.ShouldSerializeDescription()
public override bool ShouldSerializeDescription()

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if the property value has been changed from its default; otherwise, false.

Remarks

This ShouldSerialize method is provided because the Description property does not have a simple default value. This method indicates whether the property has changed from its default value. You typically invoke this method if you are either developing a designer for the ListViewWebPart or developing your own control incorporating the ListViewWebPart.

true if the value of the SerializeAll property is true or the Description property does not match the list title.
