Extender un (ASP.NET) BoundField

Question

Me gustaría crear un control que amplíe el BoundField que se utiliza dentro de un GridView. Lo que me gustaría hacer es proporcionar otra propiedad llamada HighlightField que sea similar a la propiedad DataField en la que deseo darle el nombre de columna de datos. Dada esa columna de datos, vería si el valor es verdadero o falso y resaltará el texto dado dentro de la columna dada en la fila dada.

Algunos pseudo-código si eso no tiene sentido:

<asp:GridView id="grid"> 
    <Columns> 
    <asp:BoundField DataField="Name" /> 
    <cc:HighlightField DataField="Name" HighlightField="IsHighlighted" /> 
    </Columns> 
</asp:GridView> 

Y luego dentro de la databind o algo:

if(this row's IsHighlighted value is true) 
    set the CssClass of this datacell = "highlighted" 
(or wrap a span tag around the text) 

Ravish me señaló en la dirección correcta, esto es lo que terminé con:

public class HighlightedBoundField : BoundField 
{ 
    public string HighlightField 
    { 
     get { return ViewState["HighlightField"].ToString(); } 
     set 
     { 
      ViewState["HighlightField"] = value; 
      OnFieldChanged(); 
     } 
    } 

    public override void InitializeCell(DataControlFieldCell cell, DataControlCellType cellType, DataControlRowState rowState, int rowIndex) 
    { 
     base.InitializeCell(cell, cellType, rowState, rowIndex); 

     bool isDataRowAndIsHighlightFieldSpecified = cellType == DataControlCellType.DataCell && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(HighlightField); 
     if (isDataRowAndIsHighlightFieldSpecified) 
     { 
      cell.DataBinding += new EventHandler(cell_DataBinding); 
     } 
    } 

    void cell_DataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e) 
    { 
     TableCell cell = (TableCell)sender; 
     object dataItem = DataBinder.GetDataItem(cell.NamingContainer); 
     cell.Text = DataBinder.GetPropertyValue(dataItem, DataField).ToString(); 

     bool highlightThisCellsText = Convert.ToBoolean(DataBinder.GetPropertyValue(dataItem, HighlightField)); 
     if (highlightThisCellsText) 
     { 
      cell.CssClass += " highlight"; 
     } 
    } 
}

No comprobado:

public class HighlightBoundField : DataControlField { 

    //property to indicate if this field should be highlighted, given the value of this property 
    // 
    public string HighlightField { 
     get { 
      object value = ViewState["HighlightField"]; 

      if (value != null) { 
       return Convert.ToString(value); 
      } 

      return ""; 
     } 

     set { 
      ViewState["HighlightField"] = value; 
      OnFieldChanged(); 
     } 
    } 

    //property to display as text in the cell 
    // 
    public string DataField { 
     get { 
      object value = ViewState["DataField"]; 

      if (value != null) { 
       return value.ToString(); 
      } 

      return string.Empty; 
     } 

     set { 
      ViewState["DataField"] = value; 

      OnFieldChanged(); 
     } 
    } 

    //bound field creation 
    // 
    protected override DataControlField CreateField() { 
     return new BoundField(); 
    } 

    //override the method that is used to populate and format a cell 
    // 
    public override void InitializeCell(DataControlFieldCell cell, DataControlCellType cellType, DataControlRowState rowState, int rowIndex) { 
     base.InitializeCell(cell, cellType, rowState, rowIndex); 

     //if this celltype is a data row 
     // 
     if (cellType == DataControlCellType.DataCell && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(HighlightField)) { 
      //create label control to display text 
      // 
      var lblText = new Label(); 

      //add event listener for when the label is bound 
      // 
      lblText.DataBinding += new EventHandler(lblText_DataBinding); 

      //add label to controls collection 
      // 
      cell.Controls.Add(lblText); 
     } 
    } 

    void lblText_DataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e) { 
     //retrieve data item and set label text 
     // 
     Label lblText = (Label) sender; 
     object dataItem = DataBinder.GetDataItem(lblText.NamingContainer); 
     lblText.Text = DataBinder.GetPropertyValue(dataItem, DataField).ToString(); 

     //check if value should be highlighted 
     // 
     if (Convert.ToBoolean(DataBinder.GetPropertyValue(dataItem, HighlightField))) { 
      lblText.Style.Add("background-color", "yellow"); 
     } 
    } 
}
