property String^ Type {
	String^ get ();

Property Value

Type: System::String
The name of the type of object that the IHierarchyData object represents.

The Type property does not return the System::Type of the object represented in an IHierarchyData object. It returns a name used by data-bound controls to differentiate between items in a hierarchy that have different bindable properties.

The following code example demonstrates how to write the basic IHierarchyData properties to an HttpResponse stream, then check the type of an IHierarchyData object using the Type property and cast the object to perform more type-specific operations. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the IHierarchyData interface.

No code example is currently available or this language may not be supported.
