ForEachEnumeratorHost.SetExpression(String, String) Method

Definition

Assigns the specified expression to the property. Specify null to remove an existing expression from the property.

public:
 virtual void SetExpression(System::String ^ propertyName, System::String ^ expression);
public void SetExpression (string propertyName, string expression);
abstract member SetExpression : string * string -> unit
override this.SetExpression : string * string -> unit
Public Sub SetExpression (propertyName As String, expression As String)

Parameters

propertyName
String

The name of the property to which to assign the expression.

expression
String

The expression.

Implements

Examples

The following code example hosts a SMO enumerator in the ForEachEnumeratorHost. Using the SetExpression method, the DelayValidation property is modified, then the expression is retrieved using the GetExpression method.
