service PropertyHierarchy in module com::sun::star::configuration::

(Global Index)

Syntax

service PropertyHierarchy;

Description

provides access to and information about properties and subproperties of an implementation.

Properties in a property set may be full-fledged objects that have properties themselves (and so on recursively), thereby forming a hierarchy of properties. This service describes such a hierarchy, and allows direct access even to subproperties.

Properties of an implementation that are objects themselves will often implement XProperty to allow direct access to information about the object. If such properties have properties of their own, they should fully implement PropertyHierarchy again.

Exported Interfaces

com::sun::star::beans::XPropertySet

Description

provides access to and information about the immediate properties of an implementation.


com::sun::star::beans::XMultiPropertySet

Description

provides access to and information about the immediate properties of an implementation.

This interface allows retrieving or setting multiple properties at once. Accesses are guaranteed to occur as single atomic operations even if multiple threads are accessing the object simultaneously.


com::sun::star::beans::XHierarchicalPropertySet

Description

provides access to and information about the whole hierarchy of properties and subproperties of an implementation.


com::sun::star::beans::XMultiHierarchicalPropertySet

Description

provides access to and information about the whole hierarchy of properties and subproperties of an implementation.

This interface allows retrieving or setting multiple properties at once. Accesses are guaranteed to occur as single atomic operations even if multiple threads are accessing the object simultaneously.
