ActivationDependencies Element (Feature)
SharePoint 2013
Specifies a list of features on which the activation of the current feature depends.
<ActivationDependencies> </ActivationDependencies>
Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
None | N/A |
Minimum: 0 Maximum: 1 |
If the Feature on which the current Feature depends is hidden and inactive, it is activated automatically. Such a hidden Feature is deactivated when the last Feature depending on it is deactivated. If the Feature is visible, it is not activated automatically. A hidden Feature cannot have any activation dependencies.
If included within a Feature element, the following code example prevents the current Feature from being activated unless the Feature with the specified ID is activated.
<ActivationDependencies>
<ActivationDependency
FeatureId="11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111" />
</ActivationDependencies>
For another example of how this element is used, see Feature.xml Files.
