'Declaration
Public Overridable Sub MergeElementGroupPrototype ( _
targetElement As ModelElement, _
elementGroupPrototype As ElementGroupPrototype _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As ElementOperations
Dim targetElement As ModelElement
Dim elementGroupPrototype As ElementGroupPrototype
instance.MergeElementGroupPrototype(targetElement, _
elementGroupPrototype)
public virtual void MergeElementGroupPrototype(
ModelElement targetElement,
ElementGroupPrototype elementGroupPrototype
)
public:
virtual void MergeElementGroupPrototype(
ModelElement^ targetElement,
ElementGroupPrototype^ elementGroupPrototype
)
public function MergeElementGroupPrototype(
targetElement : ModelElement,
elementGroupPrototype : ElementGroupPrototype
)
Parameters
targetElement
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.ModelElementThe target element which will serve as the parent of the reconstituted elements.
elementGroupPrototype
Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.ElementGroupPrototypeThe source ElementGroupPrototype.
Remarks
This method performs the following: (1) reconstitutes the elements from the ElementGroupPrototype, (2) calls OnElementsReconstituted to provide any ElementOperations-derived class the opportunity to plug in custom processing, (3) calls the target element's MergeRelate virtual method for each reconstituted root element to provide the target with the opportunity to connect a root element to itself, (4) calls the virtual method MergeConfigure on the reconstituted root element immediately after calling MergeRelate to provide the root element with an opportunity to configure itself, and (5) calls OnMerged to provide any ElementOperations-derived class the opportunity to plug in custom processing.
