RelativeSource.ShouldSerializeAncestorType Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Windows.Data

Assembly:

PresentationFramework.dll

Indicates whether the AncestorType property should be persisted.

C#

public bool ShouldSerializeAncestorType();

Returns

Boolean

true if the property value has changed from its default; otherwise, false.

Remarks

This ShouldSerialize method is provided because the AncestorType property does not have a simple default value. This method indicates whether the property has changed from its default value. You typically invoke this method if you are either developing a designer for the RelativeSource or developing your own control incorporating the RelativeSource.
