Examples

In the following example, a ValuePattern object obtained from a target control is passed into a function that retrieves the current ValuePattern property values.

///--------------------------------------------------------------------
/// <summary>
/// Gets the current property values from target.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="valuePattern">
/// A ValuePattern control pattern obtained from 
/// an automation element representing a target control.
/// </param>
/// <param name="automationProperty">
/// The automation property of interest.
/// </param>
///--------------------------------------------------------------------
private object GetValueProperty(
    ValuePattern valuePattern,
    AutomationProperty automationProperty)
{
    if (valuePattern == null || automationProperty == null)
    {
        throw new ArgumentNullException("Argument cannot be null.");
    }

    if (automationProperty.Id ==
        ValuePattern.ValueProperty.Id)
    {
        return valuePattern.Current.Value;
    }
    return null;
}
