XamlReaderSettings.AllowProtectedMembersOnRoot Property

Definition

Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the root object may include members that have a protected code access model when it reports the XAML type representation.

public:
 property bool AllowProtectedMembersOnRoot { bool get(); void set(bool value); };
public bool AllowProtectedMembersOnRoot { get; set; }
member this.AllowProtectedMembersOnRoot : bool with get, set
Public Property AllowProtectedMembersOnRoot As Boolean

Property Value

true if the root object may include members that have a protected code access model; otherwise, false.

Remarks

This setting is relevant to some XAML implementations such as WPF where the root object is often a "factory" for generating an instance from a pattern type, when that pattern type is not always a practical object instance. For example, a root of UserControl has a certain meaning for WPF and Silverlight application models, and UserControl might have protected properties (UserControl.Content) that the parser needs access to. Tools and design surfaces also need access to such properties. These cases should generally be reported to the XAML type system as writable properties even though they have protected access in the backing type system.
