factory Func<TElement>

Callback to create a new instance of the element.

editor TEditor

Dummy element used for type inference of the editor class.

Returns

IContainerDescription<TContainer>

The "this" pointer for use in a "Fluent API" style.

Type Parameters

TElement

The type of elements in the list.

TEditor

An editor for modifying this type of element.

AddProperty<TProperty, TEditor>(string, Func<TContainer, PropertyPointer<TProperty?>>, Func<TProperty>, TEditor)

Adds a property to the description.

public IContainerDescription<TContainer> AddProperty<TProperty, TEditor>(string name, Func<TContainer, PropertyPointer<TProperty?>> getPointer, Func<TProperty> factory, TEditor editor) where TProperty : class, IEquatable<TProperty> where TEditor : INodeEditor<TProperty>, new()

Parameters

name string
