MergablePropertyAttribute Class

Definition

Specifies that this property can be combined with properties belonging to other objects in a Properties window.

public ref class MergablePropertyAttribute sealed : Attribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.All)]
public sealed class MergablePropertyAttribute : Attribute
public sealed class MergablePropertyAttribute : Attribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.All)>]
type MergablePropertyAttribute = class
    inherit Attribute
type MergablePropertyAttribute = class

Examples

The following example marks a property as appropriate to merge.

public:
   [MergableProperty(true)]
   property int MyProperty 
   {
      int get()
      {
         // Insert code here.
         return 0;
      }
      void set( int value )
      {
         // Insert code here.
      }
   }
[MergableProperty(true)]
 public int MyProperty {
    get {
       // Insert code here.
       return 0;
    }
    set {
       // Insert code here.
    }
 }
<MergableProperty(True)> _
Public Property MyProperty() As Integer
    Get
        ' Insert code here.
        Return 0
    End Get
    Set
        ' Insert code here.
    End Set 
End Property

The next example shows how to check the value of the MergablePropertyAttribute for MyProperty. First the code gets a PropertyDescriptorCollection with all the properties for the object. Next it indexes into the PropertyDescriptorCollection to get MyProperty. Then it returns the attributes for this property and saves them in the attributes variable.

The example presents two different ways of checking the value of the MergablePropertyAttribute. In the second code fragment, the example calls the Equals method with a static value. In the last code fragment, the example uses the AllowMerge property to check the value.

// Gets the attributes for the property.
AttributeCollection^ attributes = TypeDescriptor::GetProperties( this )[ "MyProperty" ]->Attributes;

// Checks to see if the value of the MergablePropertyAttribute is Yes.
if ( attributes[ MergablePropertyAttribute::typeid ]->Equals( MergablePropertyAttribute::Yes ) )
{
   // Insert code here.
}

// This is another way to see if the property is bindable.
MergablePropertyAttribute^ myAttribute = dynamic_cast<MergablePropertyAttribute^>(attributes[ MergablePropertyAttribute::typeid ]);
if ( myAttribute->AllowMerge )
{
   // Insert code here.
}
// Gets the attributes for the property.
 AttributeCollection attributes = 
    TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(this)["MyProperty"].Attributes;
 
 // Checks to see if the value of the MergablePropertyAttribute is Yes.
 if(attributes[typeof(MergablePropertyAttribute)].Equals(MergablePropertyAttribute.Yes)) {
    // Insert code here.
 }
 
 // This is another way to see if the property is bindable.
 MergablePropertyAttribute myAttribute = 
    (MergablePropertyAttribute)attributes[typeof(MergablePropertyAttribute)];
 if(myAttribute.AllowMerge) {
    // Insert code here.
 }
' Gets the attributes for the property.
Dim attributes As AttributeCollection = _
    TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(Me)("MyProperty").Attributes

' Checks to see if the value of the MergablePropertyAttribute is Yes.
If attributes(GetType(MergablePropertyAttribute)).Equals(MergablePropertyAttribute.Yes) Then
    ' Insert code here.
End If 

' This is another way to see if the property is bindable.
Dim myAttribute As MergablePropertyAttribute = _
    CType(attributes(GetType(MergablePropertyAttribute)), MergablePropertyAttribute)
If myAttribute.AllowMerge Then
    ' Insert code here.
End If

If you marked a class with the MergablePropertyAttribute, use the following code to check the value.

AttributeCollection^ attributes = TypeDescriptor::GetAttributes( MyProperty );
if ( attributes[ MergablePropertyAttribute::typeid ]->Equals( MergablePropertyAttribute::Yes ) )
{
   // Insert code here.
}
AttributeCollection attributes = 
    TypeDescriptor.GetAttributes(MyProperty);
 if(attributes[typeof(MergablePropertyAttribute)].Equals(MergablePropertyAttribute.Yes)) {
    // Insert code here.
 }
Dim attributes As AttributeCollection = TypeDescriptor.GetAttributes(MyProperty)
If attributes(GetType(MergablePropertyAttribute)).Equals(MergablePropertyAttribute.Yes) Then
    ' Insert code here.
End If

Remarks

Properties that are marked with the MergablePropertyAttribute set to true can be combined with properties belonging to other objects in a Properties window. Properties that are marked with the MergablePropertyAttribute set to false must be displayed separately. The default is true.

Note

When you mark a property with the MergablePropertyAttribute set to true, the value of this attribute is set to the constant member Yes. For a property marked with the MergablePropertyAttribute property set to false, the value is No. Therefore, when you want to check the value of this attribute in your code, you must specify the attribute as MergablePropertyAttribute.Yes or MergablePropertyAttribute.No.

For more information, see Attributes.

Constructors

MergablePropertyAttribute(Boolean)

Initializes a new instance of the MergablePropertyAttribute class.

Fields

Default

Specifies the default value, which is Yes, that is a property can be combined with properties belonging to other objects in a Properties window. This static field is read-only.

No

Specifies that a property cannot be combined with properties belonging to other objects in a Properties window. This static field is read-only.

Yes

Specifies that a property can be combined with properties belonging to other objects in a Properties window. This static field is read-only.

Properties

AllowMerge

Gets a value indicating whether this property can be combined with properties belonging to other objects in a Properties window.

TypeId

When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute.

(Inherited from Attribute)

Methods

Equals(Object)

Indicates whether this instance and a specified object are equal.

GetHashCode()

Returns the hash code for this instance.

GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute()

Determines if this attribute is the default.

IsDefaultAttribute()

When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class.

(Inherited from Attribute)
Match(Object)

When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object.

(Inherited from Attribute)
