Gets an enumeration of the types referenced by the ValueSerializer.
public:
virtual System::Collections::Generic::IEnumerable<Type ^> ^ TypeReferences(System::Object ^ value, System::Windows::Markup::IValueSerializerContext ^ context);public virtual System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<Type> TypeReferences (object value, System.Windows.Markup.IValueSerializerContext context);abstract member TypeReferences : obj * System.Windows.Markup.IValueSerializerContext -> seq<Type>
override this.TypeReferences : obj * System.Windows.Markup.IValueSerializerContext -> seq<Type>Public Overridable Function TypeReferences (value As Object, context As IValueSerializerContext) As IEnumerable(Of Type)Parameters
- value
- Object
The value being serialized.
- context
- IValueSerializerContext
Context information that is used for conversion.
Returns
The types converted by this serializer.
Remarks
Any types a ValueSerializer converts should be included in the returned enumeration. This allows a serializer to ensure a de-serializer has enough information about the types this serializer converts.
Overriding this method is an advanced scenario. Overriding should only be necessary if you are implementing a system where CLR type system ownertype-property relationships available to a XAML schema context do not report enough information.
WPF Usage Notes
The WPF property system implements an internal value serializer that overrides TypeReferences because a dependency property has a concept that it can have added owners. WPF expressions also have special internal handling.
