DynamicActivity<TResult> Class

Definition

Provides an approach that is consistent with the document object model (DOM), which constructs activities dynamically that interface with the WF designer and workflow runtime using ICustomTypeDescriptor.

C#
[System.Windows.Markup.ContentProperty("Implementation")]
public sealed class DynamicActivity<TResult> : System.Activities.Activity<TResult>, System.ComponentModel.ICustomTypeDescriptor

Type Parameters

TResult

The result returned by the activity.

Inheritance
Attributes
Implements

Remarks

With DynamicActivity<TResult> you can create new activities without creating new types. DynamicActivity<TResult> with its associated XAML support in ActivityXamlServices allows new arguments to be defined in XAML and bound by the host without requiring XAML to be compiled.

Constructors

DynamicActivity<TResult>()

Creates a new instance of the DynamicActivity<TResult> class.

Properties

Attributes

DisplayName

Gets or sets an optional friendly name that is used for debugging, validation, exception handling, and tracking.

(Inherited from Activity)
Id

Gets an identifier that is unique in the scope of the workflow definition.

(Inherited from Activity)
Implementation

ImplementationVersion

Gets or sets the version of the implementation used.

(Inherited from Activity)
Name

Gets the name to be displayed for the activity in the workflow designer.

Properties

Gets the collection of properties that map to the arguments of the dynamically generated activity.
