ValueTypePropertyReference<TOperand,TResult> Class

Definition

Represents a property on a value type that can be used as an l-value in an expression.

generic <typename TOperand, typename TResult>
public ref class ValueTypePropertyReference sealed : System::Activities::CodeActivity<System::Activities::Location<TResult> ^>
public sealed class ValueTypePropertyReference<TOperand,TResult> : System.Activities.CodeActivity<System.Activities.Location<TResult>>
type ValueTypePropertyReference<'Operand, 'Result> = class
    inherit CodeActivity<Location<'Result>>
Public NotInheritable Class ValueTypePropertyReference(Of TOperand, TResult)
Inherits CodeActivity(Of Location(Of TResult))

Type Parameters

TOperand

The value type.

TResult

The property type.

Inheritance
ValueTypePropertyReference<TOperand,TResult>

Examples

The following code example uses ValueTypePropertyReference<TOperand,TResult> in an Assign activity to assign a string value to a property and prints the property value to the console. The Assign activity is equivalent to the following statement when using the struct defined in the following example: myStructVariable.AProperty = "Hello";.

Note

Instead of instantiating the ValueTypePropertyReference<TOperand,TResult> l-value expression activity directly, it is strongly recommended that you call ConvertReference, which provides a higher level of abstraction and enables you to implement your workflow more intuitively.

// Define a struct with a property named AProperty.  
struct StructWithProperty  
{  
    public string AProperty { get; set; }  
}  

public static void ValueTypePropertyReferenceSample()  
{  
    // Create a variable of type StructWithProperty to store the property.  
    var swpvar = new Variable<StructWithProperty>("swpvar", new StructWithProperty());  

    // Create the top-level activity to be invoked later.  
    Activity myActivity = new Sequence  
    {  
        Variables = { swpvar },  
        Activities =   
        {                      
            // Create an Assign activity for a property named AProperty.  
            new Assign<string>  
            {  
                To = new ValueTypePropertyReference<StructWithProperty, string>  
                {  
                    OperandLocation = swpvar,  
                    PropertyName = "AProperty",  
                },  
                // Assign a string literal to AProperty.  
                Value = "Hello",  
            },  
            // Create a WriteLine activity to write the value of AProperty to the console.  
            new WriteLine()  
            {  
                Text = ExpressionServices.Convert<string>(ctx => swpvar.Get(ctx).AProperty),  
            }  
        }  
    };  

    // Invoke the Sequence activity.  
    WorkflowInvoker.Invoke(myActivity);  
}  

Constructors

ValueTypePropertyReference<TOperand,TResult>()

Initializes a new instance of the ValueTypePropertyReference<TOperand,TResult> class.

Properties

Constraints

Gets a collection of Constraint activities that can be configured to provide validation for the Activity.

(Inherited from Activity)
DisplayName

Gets or sets an optional friendly name that is used for debugging, validation, exception handling, and tracking.

(Inherited from Activity)
Id

(Inherited from Object)
Execute(CodeActivityContext)

When implemented in a derived class, performs the execution of the activity.

GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
OnCreateDynamicUpdateMap(UpdateMapMetadata, Activity)

Raises an event when creating a map for the dynamic update.

(Inherited from CodeActivity<TResult>)
