Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride Function FindItemMetadataByUniqueIndexedFields ( _
    fields As IEnumerable(Of KeyValuePair(Of String, Object)) _
) As ItemMetadata
'Usage
Dim instance As ReplicaMetadata
Dim fields As IEnumerable(Of KeyValuePair(Of String, Object))
Dim returnValue As ItemMetadata

returnValue = instance.FindItemMetadataByUniqueIndexedFields(fields)
public abstract ItemMetadata FindItemMetadataByUniqueIndexedFields (
    IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<string,Object>> fields
)
public:
virtual ItemMetadata^ FindItemMetadataByUniqueIndexedFields (
    IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<String^, Object^>>^ fields
) abstract
public abstract ItemMetadata FindItemMetadataByUniqueIndexedFields (
    IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<String,Object>> fields
)
public abstract function FindItemMetadataByUniqueIndexedFields (
    fields : IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<String,Object>>
) : ItemMetadata

Parameters

  • fields
    The set of unique indexed fields that identifies the item for which to search. The fields must be valid fields and represent a unique index. These fields must be in the same order as that used to specify the index when InitializeReplicaMetadata was called.

Return Value

The unique item metadata entry that has the specified values for the indexed fields. A null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is returned when no item exists.

Exceptions
