SPFeatureDefinitionCollection Class

Windows SharePoint Services 3

Represents a collection of SPFeatureDefinition objects.

Namespace: Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration
Assembly: Microsoft.SharePoint (in microsoft.sharepoint.dll)

[DefaultMemberAttribute("Item")] 
[SharePointPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, ObjectModel=true)] 
public sealed class SPFeatureDefinitionCollection : SPPersistedChildCollection<SPFeatureDefinition>

Remarks

Use the FeatureDefinitions property of the SPFarm class to get the collection of Feature definitions installed in the server farm. To add a Feature definition to the collection, use one of the Add methods of the SPFeatureDefinitionCollection class.

Warning:
Using the Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPFeatureDefinition constructor to create a Feature definition object is not supported, and returns a NullReferenceException if you attempt to implement members of an object created through the constructor.

Use an indexer to return a single Feature definition from the collection. For example, if the collection is assigned to a variable named myDefinitions, use myDefinitions[index] in Microsoft Visual C#, or myDefinitions(index) in Visual Basic, where index is the GUID of the Feature.
