Constructors
| ElementPropertyDescriptor(ElementTypeDescriptor, ModelElement, DomainPropertyInfo, Attribute[]) |
The ElementPropertyDescriptor can operate upon a specific element passed in to the constructor, or it can accept a null element. If a specific element is provided, GetValue(), SetValue(), and the other methods don't need the component argument passed in and can instead use that specific element. If a null element is provided, GetValue(), SetValue(), and the other methods will use the component argument passed in. |

Properties
| Category |
Gets the name of the category to which the member belongs, as specified in the CategoryAttribute. |
| ComponentType |
The type of component the framework expects for this property. Notice this returns element.GetType(). That is because the object that is being browsed when this property is shown is an ModelElement. So we are faking the PropertyGrid into thinking this is a property on that type, even though it isn't. |
| Converter |
Gets the type converter of the property descriptor. |
| Description |
Gets the description of the member, as specified in the DescriptionAttribute. |
| DisplayName |
Gets the name that can be displayed in a window, such as a Properties window. |
| DomainPropertyInfo |
DomainPropertyInfo for this propery |
| IsInstanceBased |
Test if this PropertyDescriptor is based on an instance or a static type. |
| IsReadOnly |
We have to override all the abstract members. |
| ModelElement |
returns the element to which this property belongs |
| PropertyType |
Returns the property type. |
Methods
| AddValueChanged(Object, EventHandler) | |
| CanResetValue(Object) |
This is not a resettable property. |
| CanSetProperty(ModelElement, DomainPropertyInfo) | |
| GetEditor(Type) |
Gets an editor of the specified type. Override this so we can provide our own FlagEnumerationEditor for bit-wisable enum |
| GetElementPropertyDescriptor(ModelElement, DomainPropertyInfo) |
Gets the ElementPropertyDescriptor given a ModelElement and DomainPropertyInfo. |
| GetSetValueTransactionName(String) |
Gets a string describing the set field action. |
| GetValue(Object) |
Get the value of the property... |
| RemoveValueChanged(Object, EventHandler) | |
| ResetValue(Object) |
Reset domain propertyvalue to the default based on the default of the domain. |
| SetProperty(ModelElement, DomainPropertyInfo, Object) |
Set the property value. Property value is generally set via an ElementPropertyDescriptor. It will be set directly via the SetValue method on propertyInfo if
|
| SetValue(Object, Object) |
Sets the value of the property. |
| ShouldSerializeValue(Object) |
Allow the property to be reported as bold in the property browser |
