'Declaration
Function GetIfCollection ( _
    ByRef strList As Object _
) As Object
'Usage
Dim instance As IGlobalConfig
Dim strList As Object

) : Object

Parameters

  • strList
    Type: System..::.Object%
    The object that contains the encoded string to be converted.

Return Value

Type: System..::.Object
The Array or a Simplelist if found. If there is no collection, returns strList as a plain string.

Remarks

Implemented by GlobalConfigFreeThreaded.GetIfCollection (GetIfCollection).

If the encoding in the string contained in the Fields property indicates a SimpleList object, then a SimpleList object is returned. If the encoding indicates a System.Array, then a System.Array is returned. If no collection object is indicated, then the method returns the original encoded input string.

The Initialize method must be called before this method can be called.
