EntityFieldSource Class

Initializes a new instance of the EntityFieldSource class.

The field of which this instance is the document source.

Name of the source, which is determined from the actual object implementing this interface.

Gets the source element.

Gets the source element type as string, which is e.g. the field type if this source represents a field, or 'entity' if it's an entity.

Gets the source field.

The type of source, e.g. multi element or single element or a field.

Binds the event handlers of contained elements.

Clones this instance using deep cloning. It doesn't clone elements referenced from the entity model. There it uses shallow clone.

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Serves as the default hash function.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Returns true if the passed in IDocumentFieldSource instance can be seen as a source originating from the same element. This means that even if the passed in element or this element has been changed, e.g. elementName has been changed, it will still return true if the original source is equal. This method is therefore different from 'Equals' which compares all elements.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Serializes the source to the serializer specified.

Returns a string that represents the current object.

Unbinds the event handlers of contained elements.

Raised when the implementing element has been changed

Raised when the implementing element has been removed from its container

Creates validator objects for the source object, if required.

Updates the output setting values container of this element (if applicable) with the defaults in the container specified.
