Syntax
'Declaration
Public Function ModelExists ( _

'Usage
Dim instance As ModelReader
Dim targetModelId As Identifier
Dim isNameMatch As Boolean
Dim isIdMatch As Boolean
Dim returnValue As Boolean
returnValue = instance.ModelExists(targetModelId, _

[OutAttribute] bool% isNameMatch,
[OutAttribute] bool% isIdMatch
)
member ModelExists :

isIdMatch:bool byref -> bool
public function ModelExists(
targetModelId : Identifier,
isNameMatch : boolean,
isIdMatch : boolean
) : boolean
Parameters
- targetModelId
Type: Microsoft.MasterDataServices.Services.DataContracts.Identifier
The name and/or ID of the model to search for a match.
- isNameMatch
Type: System.Boolean%
true to a name that passed in, and the name has a match; otherwise, false.
- isIdMatch
Type: System.Boolean%
true to an ID that passed in, and the ID has a match; otherwise, false.
Return Value
Type: System.Boolean
true if there is a model that matches targetModelId (per rules above); otherwise, false.
Remarks
Note that both of the out parameters can be true and the result false, if the name and ID both match, but they match different models.
ModelExists throws ArgumentNullException if targetModelId is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
ModelExists throws ArgumentException if neither a name nor an ID was provided. At least one of those must be given.
