static GetControlCollection(): ASPxClientControlCollection| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| ASPxClientControlCollection | An ASPxClientControlCollection object representing the client-side collection of web controls. |
Use the GetControlCollection method on the client side to gain access to the collection of all DevExpress client object instances..
A particular web control object can be accessed either by its unique hierarchically-qualified identifier, using the ASPxClientControlCollection.GetByName method.
