ConfigurationElement.LockAllAttributesExcept Property
Gets the collection of locked attributes.
Assembly: System.Configuration (in System.Configuration.dll)
Property Value
Type: System.Configuration.ConfigurationLockCollectionThe ConfigurationLockCollection of locked attributes (properties) for the element.
The LockAllAttributesExcept property allows you to lock all the attributes at once, with the exception of the one you specify. To do that, you use the Contains method, as explained in the Example section.
Note |
|---|
The LockAllAttributesExcept property allows you to prevent the child configuration elements of the element to which you apply the rule from being modified. Use the LockItem property if you want to put a general lock on the parent element itself and its child elements. |
Notes to Implementers:
If you use the LockAllAttributesExcept and LockAttributes properties at the same time, the most restrictive rule applies.
The following example shows how to use the LockAllAttributesExcept.
' Show how to use LockAllAttributesExcept. ' It locks and unlocks all urls elements ' except the port. Shared Sub LockAllAttributesExcept() Try ' Get the current configuration file. Dim config _ As System.Configuration.Configuration = _ ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration( _ ConfigurationUserLevel.None) ' Get the MyUrls section.
