public:
System::Object ^ GetPropertyOwner(System::ComponentModel::PropertyDescriptor ^ pd);
public object GetPropertyOwner (System.ComponentModel.PropertyDescriptor pd);
public object? GetPropertyOwner (System.ComponentModel.PropertyDescriptor? pd);
abstract member GetPropertyOwner : System.ComponentModel.PropertyDescriptor -> obj
Public Function GetPropertyOwner (pd As PropertyDescriptor) As Object
Parameters
A PropertyDescriptor that represents the property whose owner is to be found.
Returns
An Object that represents the owner of the specified property.
Remarks
The GetPropertyOwner method retrieves the object that contains the property member that is described by PropertyDescriptor parameter. Typically, this object is required for the PropertyDescriptor.GetValue and PropertyDescriptor.SetValue methods.
This method should return an object that you can use as follows:
pd.GetValue(GetPropertyOwner(myPd));
If myPd
is null
, your implementation of the ICustomTypeDescriptor interface should return the default object (typically, the base object that exposes the properties and attributes).
