'Declaration
Public Function GetPageLayouts ( _
associatedContentType As SPContentType, _
excludeObsolete As Boolean _
) As PageLayoutCollection
'Usage
Dim instance As PublishingSite
Dim associatedContentType As SPContentType
Dim excludeObsolete As Boolean
Dim returnValue As PageLayoutCollection
returnValue = instance.GetPageLayouts(associatedContentType, _
excludeObsolete)
public PageLayoutCollection GetPageLayouts(
SPContentType associatedContentType,
bool excludeObsolete
)
Parameters
- associatedContentType
Type: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPContentType
SPContentType object to match against the AssociatedContentType property values of the PageLayout objects returned in the collection.
- excludeObsolete
Type: System.Boolean
Boolean flag that indicates whether to exclude PageLayout objects that are marked as hidden.
Return Value
Type: Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.PageLayoutCollection
A collection of PageLayout objects from the Master Page Gallery of the RootWeb property that have an AssociatedContentType property that matches a specific SPContentType object.
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | Indicates that the associatedContentType parameter is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), which is invalid. |
Remarks
The associatedContentType parameter must not be a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic). If the excludeObsolete parameter is set to True, obsolete PageLayout objects that have been marked as hidden are not returned in the collection. If the excludeObsolete parameter is set to False, obsolete PageLayout objects are included in the collection.
