ExportDefinition.cs

Gets the contract metadata.

public:
 virtual property System::Collections::Generic::IDictionary<System::String ^, System::Object ^> ^ Metadata { System::Collections::Generic::IDictionary<System::String ^, System::Object ^> ^ get(); };

public virtual System.Collections.Generic.IDictionary<string,object?> Metadata { get; }

member this.Metadata : System.Collections.Generic.IDictionary<string, obj>

Public Overridable ReadOnly Property Metadata As IDictionary(Of String, Object)

Property Value

IDictionary<String,Object>

The metadata of the ExportDefinition. The default is an empty, read-only IDictionary<TKey,TValue> object.

Remarks

Overrides of this property should return a read-only IDictionary<TKey,TValue> object with a case-sensitive, non-linguistic comparer, such as Ordinal, and should never return null.

If the ExportDefinition does not contain metadata, return an empty IDictionary<TKey,TValue> instead.
