Entity.FindByPath(String, StringComparison, String, Int32) Method

Definition

Returns a list of entities that are under this entity and that match the exact search path. A path is a sequence of entity names, separated by a special path delimiter character/string. For instance, a path string could be "house/table/leg4". In that example, this function would search for direct child entities named "house", from there recursively search for child entities named "table" and so on. It only returns those entities that match the full path.

Public Function FindByPath (path As String, comparison As StringComparison, pathSeparator As String, maxResultCount As Integer) As IReadOnlyList(Of Entity)

Parameters

path
String

The path string relative to this entity. The path separator character/string can be passed separately.

comparison
StringComparison

A pre-defined string comparison method to compare each path segment against an entity's name. See StringComparison.

pathSeparator
String

A single character (or non-empty string) that denotes a delimiter in the path string. For instance, use "/" or "".

maxResultCount
Int32

The maximum number of entities to find. Use 1 to return the first result only, or a negative number for all results.

Returns

The list of result entities that match the input path.

Remarks

The path separator should be chosen carefully, so it's not a potential character sequence in entity names.
