LogProvider.GetExpression(String) Method

Definition

Returns a String that contains the expression for the specified property. Null means no expression is assigned.

public:
 virtual System::String ^ GetExpression(System::String ^ propertyName);
public string GetExpression (string propertyName);
abstract member GetExpression : string -> string
override this.GetExpression : string -> string
Public Function GetExpression (propertyName As String) As String

Parameters

propertyName
String

The name of the property whose expression you want to see.

Returns

A String that contains the expression used to evaluate the property.

Implements

Examples

The following example sets the Description property of the log provider to be the text, "This is the log for…" with the current month and day appended to the end of the string. It then validates the package, which resolves the expression and saves the value to the property specified in propertyName. The expression will also be set on the expressions on the property when the package is saved.

Sample output:

Current description: Writes log entries for events to a CSV file

Validation passed: Success

The expression for Description is "This is the log for January 06"

The description is now: This is the log for January 06

Remarks

The propertyName will be ConfigString, Description, or Name. For the log provider, those are currently the only three properties that can use an expression.
