Graph.BeginUpdate Method (Object, String, UndoOption, Boolean)

[This documentation is for preview only, and is subject to change in later releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]

Starts a batch mode update on the Graph (which is more efficient). You must call the Complete() method on the returned GraphTransactionScope, otherwise your changes will be rolled back. The usual pattern is to use this in a using block so that if an exception is thrown the changes are automatically rolled back.

Assembly:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.GraphModel (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.GraphModel.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function BeginUpdate ( _
    undoUnitId As Object, _
    undoDescription As String, _
    option As UndoOption, _
    forceAdd As Boolean _
) As GraphTransactionScope
public GraphTransactionScope BeginUpdate(

    string undoDescription,
    UndoOption option,
    bool forceAdd
)
public:
GraphTransactionScope^ BeginUpdate(
    Object^ undoUnitId, 
    String^ undoDescription, 
    UndoOption option, 
    bool forceAdd
)
member BeginUpdate : 
        undoUnitId:Object * 
        undoDescription:string * 
        option:UndoOption * 
        forceAdd:bool -> GraphTransactionScope
public function BeginUpdate(
    undoUnitId : Object, 
    undoDescription : String, 
    option : UndoOption, 
    forceAdd : boolean
) : GraphTransactionScope

Parameters

  • undoDescription
    Type: System.String

    An application might surface this caption as a label on the undo operations.

  • forceAdd
    Type: System.Boolean

    This is only valid if the option is UndoOption.Add. This causes a new undo unit even if it is empty. This is useful when you are doing a compound operation that consists of multiple merged undo units where you must be sure the Add operation adds the initial unit even if it is empty.

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.GraphModel.GraphTransactionScope
A new GraphTransactionScope.
