Indicates whether a specified ExtendedProperty object exists in the ExtendedProperties collection.

Namespace: Microsoft.Ink
Assembly: Microsoft.Ink (in microsoft.ink.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function DoesPropertyExist ( _
    id As Guid _
) As Boolean
'Usage
Dim instance As ExtendedProperties
Dim id As Guid
Dim returnValue As Boolean

returnValue = instance.DoesPropertyExist(id)
public bool DoesPropertyExist (
    Guid id
)
public:
bool DoesPropertyExist (
    Guid id
)
public boolean DoesPropertyExist (
    Guid id
)
public function DoesPropertyExist (
    id : Guid
) : boolean
Not applicable.

Parameters

  • id
    The globally unique identifier (GUID) of the property to check for.

Return Value

true if the specified ExtendedProperty object exists in the ExtendedProperties collection; otherwise, false.

Example

This C# example uses the Stroke event handler to store an ExtendedProperty in each Stroke object. The ExtendedProperty object contains a time stamp, which is added to the Stroke by using the Stroke object's ExtendedProperties property. This sample started with a generated C# application and added a button, theButton, and a list box, theListBox, to the main form. When the button is pressed, the list box is populated with a list of the time stamps of the Stroke objects.

        //...

        // Add the following after Main() in the generated code.

        InkCollector theInkCollector;
        // This GUID constant is used for the Strokes'
        // timestamp ExtendedProperty.
        Guid theTimeGuid = new Guid(10, 11, 12, 10, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            // Initialize the InkCollector with the form's
            // window handle, then enable it.
            theInkCollector = new InkCollector(Handle);
            theInkCollector.Enabled = true;
            // Add a handler for Stroke Events to record
            // an ExtendedProperty with each one.
            theInkCollector.Stroke += new InkCollectorStrokeEventHandler(TheStrokeHandler);
        }

        public void TheStrokeHandler(object sender, InkCollectorStrokeEventArgs e)

            long theTime = DateTime.Now.ToFileTime();
            // Store the data under its own Guid key.
            e.Stroke.ExtendedProperties.Add(theTimeGuid, theTime);
        }

        private void PopulateList()
        {
            //Clear the list before repopulating it.
            theListBox.Items.Clear();
            // Query the InkCollector's Ink for its Strokes collection.
            Strokes theStrokes = theInkCollector.Ink.Strokes;

            {
                // Test for the timestamp ExtendedProperty on this Stroke.
                if (theStroke.ExtendedProperties.DoesPropertyExist(theTimeGuid))
                {
                    // Get the raw data out of this Stroke's ExtendedProperties
                    // list by using the previously defined Guid.
                    long theLong = (long)theStroke.ExtendedProperties[theTimeGuid].Data;
                    // Then turn the timestamp (as a FileTime) into a time string.
                    string theTime = DateTime.FromFileTime(theLong).ToString();
                    // Add the string to the listbox.
                    theListBox.Items.Add(theTime);
                }
            }
        }

        private void theButton_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            PopulateList();
        }

            theInkCollector.Dispose();
