Methods
CreateWritableClone()
Declaration
public PropertyDefinitionType CreateWritableClone()Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| PropertyDefinitionType |
IsSystemType()
Determines whether this page definition type is a built in system type.
Declaration
public bool IsSystemType()Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| System.Boolean |
|
MakeReadOnly()
Changes the object instance into a read-only object.
Declaration
public void MakeReadOnly()Remarks
After calling this method, any attempt to change the object instance or any contained object will generate a System.NotSupportedException. I.e. the semantics is "deep read-only".
Note! After setting an object to read-only it is not possible to revert back to read-write mode. You will have to call the CreateWritableClone method to get a copy that can be modified.
ResolvePropertyDataType(PropertyDataType)
Resolves the given PropertyDataType to a System.Type.
Declaration
public static Type ResolvePropertyDataType(PropertyDataType dataType)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| PropertyDataType | dataType | The data type to resolve into a Type. |
Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| System.Type | A System.Type that matches the provided type. |
Remarks
ThrowIfReadOnly()
Declaration
protected virtual void ThrowIfReadOnly()Explicit Interface Implementations
IReadOnly.CreateWritableClone()
Creates a writable copy of the current object.
Declaration
object IReadOnly.CreateWritableClone()Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| System.Object | A writable copy of the current object. |
Remarks
