ProjectItem.GetMetadataValue(String) Method

Definition

Get the evaluated value of a metadata on this item, possibly from an item definition. Returns empty string if it does not exist. To determine whether a piece of metadata does not exist vs. simply has no value, use HasMetadata. May be used to access the value of built-in metadata, such as "FullPath". Attempting to get built-in metadata on a value that is not a valid path throws InvalidOperationException.
