Constructors

Culture()

Initializes a new instance of the Culture class

Declaration
public Culture()

Culture(IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<Object, Object>>)

Initializes a new instance of the Culture class.

Declaration
public Culture(IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<object, object>> properties)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair<System.Object, System.Object>> properties

Collection of properties.
Remarks

You can use this constructor to initialize a new instance of the ModelRelation class by specifying its properties in a list of key/value pairs. This is especially useful for dynamic languages like python.

Culture(Culture)

Initializes a new instance of the Culture class

Declaration
public Culture(Culture element)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Culture element

The culture to copy.
Remarks

This copy constructor creates copies of all value-typed properties. StorageColumns and Permissions from element are just added to the corresponding collections of the new Culture. No copying is performed.

Properties

DatabaseName

Gets the database column name.

Declaration
public string DatabaseName { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String

FallbackCulture

Gets the fallback culture.

Declaration
public Culture FallbackCulture { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
Culture

The fallback culture.

IsDefaultCulture

Gets a value indicating whether this instance is default culture.

Declaration
public bool IsDefaultCulture { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Boolean

true if this instance is default culture; otherwise, false.

Methods

Accept(ModelElementVisitor)

Dispatches the correct visit handler in the visitor.

Declaration
public override void Accept(ModelElementVisitor visitor)
Parameters
Type Name Description
ModelElementVisitor visitor

the visitor to accept.
Overrides

BuildFallbackCultures(IEnumerable<Culture>)

builds the string fallback dictionary.

Declaration
public static Dictionary<string, string> BuildFallbackCultures(IEnumerable<Culture> cultures)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<Culture> cultures

the cultures to convert to a dictionary.
Returns
Type Description
System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<System.String, System.String>

Returns a dictionary containing the fallback culture tree, represented as a key value dictionary.

GetMember(String)

Gets the value of a CLR property.

Declaration
public override object GetMember(string name)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String name

Name of the member to get.
Returns
Type Description
System.Object

Reference to the dynamic member.
Overrides

RemoveFallbackCulture()

Removes the fallback culture.

Declaration
public void RemoveFallbackCulture()

SetFallbackCulture(Culture)

Sets the fallback culture.

Declaration
public void SetFallbackCulture(Culture fallbackCulture)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Culture fallbackCulture

The fallback culture.

Validate(ref IList<PropertyValidationMessage>, Boolean)

Validates a ModelElement according to certain rules.

Declaration
protected override void Validate(ref IList<PropertyValidationMessage> messages, bool validateRecursively)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Collections.Generic.IList<PropertyValidationMessage> messages

An list of strings that stores that picks up the validation errors of a model element.
System.Boolean validateRecursively

Indicates wheter to validate only the current model element or all its children (recursively) as well.
Overrides
Remarks

The rules the ModelElement is validated against are dependent on the type of ModelElement that is validated. This method can be overridden to provide custom validation behavior for subclasses of ModelElement

When Validate(ref IList<PropertyValidationMessage>, Boolean) is called on a modelelement, the Validate(ref IList<PropertyValidationMessage>, Boolean) method of all children attatched to the modelelemnt are validated recursivly.
