PropertyMetadata Class
Defines certain behavior aspects of a dependency property, including conditions it was registered with.
Namespace: System.Windows
Assembly: System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)
The PropertyMetadata type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | PropertyMetadata(Object) | Initializes a new instance of the PropertyMetadata class, using a property default value. |
![]() ![]() | PropertyMetadata(PropertyChangedCallback) | Initializes a new instance of the PropertyMetadata class, using a callback reference. |
![]() ![]() | PropertyMetadata(Object, PropertyChangedCallback) | Initializes a new instance of the PropertyMetadata class, using a property default value and callback reference. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() ![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() ![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (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.) |

In Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), a dependency property can be registered with an owning type, and then you could override the metadata for that property as it existed on a specific type. In Silverlight 5, there is no support for per-type property metadata. The metadata used for a dependency property in Silverlight 5 is always the metadata that is applied by the initially registering and owning type (the type from which the Register is made).
