The ImportDefinition type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
  | ImportDefinition() | Initializes a new instance of the ImportDefinition class. |
| ImportDefinition(Expression<Func<ExportDefinition, Boolean>>, String, ImportCardinality, Boolean, Boolean) | Initializes a new instance of the ImportDefinition class with the specified constraint, contract name, and cardinality, and indicates whether the import definition is recomposable or a prerequisite. |
| ImportDefinition(Expression<Func<ExportDefinition, Boolean>>, String, ImportCardinality, Boolean, Boolean, IDictionary<String, Object>) | Initializes a new instance of the ImportDefinition class with the specified constraint, contract name, cardinality, and metadata, and indicates whether the import definition is recomposable or a prerequisite. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Cardinality | Gets the cardinality of the exports required by the import definition. |
| Constraint | Gets an expression that defines conditions that the import must satisfy to match the import definition. |
| ContractName | Gets the name of the contract. |
| IsPrerequisite | Gets a value that indicates whether the import definition must be satisfied before a part can start producing exported objects. |
| IsRecomposable | Gets a value that indicates whether the import definition can be satisfied multiple times. |
| Metadata | Gets the metadata associated with this import. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| IsConstraintSatisfiedBy | Gets a value that indicates whether the export represented by the specified definition satisfies the constraints of this import definition. |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| ToString | Returns a string representation of the import definition. (Overrides Object.ToString().) |
