        <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.Design.DataBindingHandler" /> provides a base class for data-binding handlers. A data-binding handler can be used within a designer to perform data-binding to enable a meaningful display of the control on the design surface. Typically a control's designer is responsible for this functionality. However, when a control is not live on the design surface, such as within the template of another control, it does not have a designer, and this functionality is provided by a data-binding handler if one has been specified with a <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.DataBindingHandlerAttribute" /> in the code for the control.</para>
      <para>To use a data-binding handler, the control which has the data-bound property or properties must have a <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.DataBindingHandlerAttribute" /> specified within its code that indicates the type of data-binding handler to use.</para>
      <para>For example, the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label" /> control is associated with the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.Design.TextDataBindingHandler" /> class through a <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.DataBindingHandlerAttribute" /> in the code for the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label" /> class. Within a template for a <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataList" />, a <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label" /> control whose text property has been data bound displays the word "DataBound" on the label. Without the data-binding handler, the label would be invisible at design-time, as it does not have a designer to bind its data-bound properties while in a templated control at design-time.</para>
      <para>To implement a data-binding handler, define a new class that derives from this class and implement the <see cref="M:System.Web.UI.Design.DataBindingHandler.DataBindControl(System.ComponentModel.Design.IDesignerHost,System.Web.UI.Control)" /> method to set the appropriate properties.</para>

          <para>This method should be implemented in a derived class to provide functionality to a custom data-binding handler. The logic for the data binding should be implemented within this method, and can be specific to the type or types that the data-binding handler is to bind a property or properties on.</para>
