This interface defines the key members that are required for all device-specific control adapters. The System.Web.UI.MobileControls.Adapters namespace includes a set of control adapters for every control in this namespace. For example, the TextBox has a corresponding System.Web.UI.MobileControls.Adapters.ChtmlTextBoxAdapter for rendering cHTML output, a System.Web.UI.MobileControls.Adapters.HtmlTextBoxAdapter for rendering HTML, and a System.Web.UI.MobileControls.Adapters.WmlTextBoxAdapter for rendering WML.

public interface IControlAdapter {
// Public Instance Properties
   public MobileControl Control{set; get; }
   public int ItemWeight{get; }
   public MobilePage Page{get; }
   public int VisibleWeight{get; }
// Public Instance Methods
   public void CreateTemplatedUI(bool doDataBind);
   public bool HandlePostBackEvent(string eventArgument);
   public void LoadAdapterState(object state);
   public bool LoadPostData(string postDataKey, System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection postCollection, 
        object controlPrivateData, out bool dataChanged);
   public void OnInit(EventArgs e);
   public void OnLoad(EventArgs e);
   public void OnPreRender(EventArgs e);
   public void OnUnload(EventArgs e);
   public void Render(System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter writer);
