Defining Properties

You can create a property definition object to represent properties in an information model. Properties can include enumerated values. You can also specify a property as a virtual member if you want to provide a property value from a source other than the repository.

To define a property definition object, you can use the PropertyDef class or the IPropertyDef interface for COM programs, or the PropertyDef object for Automation programs.

The following topics provide more information about defining properties.
