Properties

	Name	Description
	IsDisposed	Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the object has been disposed.
	IsInitialized	Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the object has been initialized.
	Name	When overridden in a derived class, gets the name of the property that the object represents.
	Value	When overridden in a derived class, gets or sets the value of the property that the object represents.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Dispose()	Releases all resources that are being used by the PrintProperty.
	Dispose(Boolean)	Releases the unmanaged resources that are being used by the PrintProperty and optionally releases the managed resource.
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Enables a PrintProperty to attempt to free resources and to perform other cleanup operations before the PrintProperty is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Overrides Object.Finalize().)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	InternalDispose	Releases the unmanaged resources that are being used by the PrintProperty and optionally releases the managed resources.
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	OnDeserialization	When overridden in a derived class, implements the ISerializable interface and raises the deserialization event when the deserialization is complete.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Examples

The following example shows how to use this class to discover at run time the properties, and the types of those properties, of a print system object, without using reflection.



            // Enumerate the properties, and their types, of a queue without using Reflection
            LocalPrintServer localPrintServer = new LocalPrintServer();
            PrintQueue defaultPrintQueue = LocalPrintServer.GetDefaultPrintQueue();

            PrintPropertyDictionary printQueueProperties = defaultPrintQueue.PropertiesCollection;

            Console.WriteLine("These are the properties, and their types, of {0}, a {1}", defaultPrintQueue.Name, defaultPrintQueue.GetType().ToString() +"\n");

            foreach (DictionaryEntry entry in printQueueProperties)
            {
                PrintProperty property = (PrintProperty)entry.Value;

                if (property.Value != null)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(property.Name + "\t(Type: {0})", property.Value.GetType().ToString());
                }
            }
            Console.WriteLine("\n\nPress Return to continue...");
            Console.ReadLine();
