CollectionDef Properties Collection
A Properties collection contains all of the persistent properties and collections that are attached to an object through a particular interface. The CollectionDef object exposes four separate Properties collections. These collections are exposed by:
- The ICollectionDef interface (the default).
- The IInterfaceMember or IInterfaceMember2 interface.
- The IRepositoryObject or IRepositoryObject2 interface.
- The IAnnotationalProps interface.
Syntax
Set variable = object.Properties(index)
The Properties collection syntax has the following parts.
| Part | Description |
|---|---|
| variable | A variable declared as a ReposProperty object. Receives the specified property. |
| object | An object expression; evaluates to an object that exposes ICollectionDef, IInterfaceMember or IInterfaceMember2, IRepositoryObject or IRepositoryObject2, or IAnnotationalProps as the default interface. |
| index | An integer index that identifies which property in the collection is to be addressed. The valid range is from one to the number of elements in the collection. The number of elements in the collection is specified by object.Properties.Count. For more information, see Selecting Items in a Collection. |
