How to override the Render method?

Question

I'm looking at a control that must output raw HTML and provide rich design-time support.

How to create a custom server control, extend the WebControl class and override the Render method?

Can you provide an example?

Answer 1

This will create a control that extends web control and overrides the Render method (though doesn't actually do anything with it.

public class TestControl : System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl
{
    protected override void Render(System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter writer)
    {
        base.Render(writer);
    }
}

As you can see this is a fairly trivial answer but complete so I suspect that you didn't actually ask the question that you intended to.
