Protected Fields

 NameDescription
Protected Field_operator

_operator

_operator has been marked as protected just to allow the inheriting classes the ability to change the operator without going through the property set method, which will reset the UseInSearch flag.


		this._operator = " IN ";
		

Or


		this._operator = " = ";

Public Properties

 NameDescription
Public PropertyAllowGroupByAllowGroupBy

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for specifying weather this field can be used in grouped result set or not.

(Inherited from BaseField)
Public PropertyAllowNullAllowNull

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for specifying weather this field can contain Null values. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyAllowSaveAllowSave

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for specifying weather this field can be used in updates/inserts or not.

This value doesn't necessarily indicate that the field will be used in the updates/inserts, but if this is true, only then the field's UseInSave property will be used.

This can be useful to the User Interface controls to be able to decide if this field will allow updates or not. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyAllowSearchAllowSearch

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for specifying weather this field can be used in searching resultset or not.

This value doesn't necessarily indicate that the field will be used in the Search criteria, but if this is true, only then the field's UseInSearch property will be used.

This can be useful to the User Interface controls to be able to decide if this field will allow search or not. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyAllowSortAllowSort

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for specifying weather this field can contain Null values.

This value doesn't necessarily indicate that the field will be used in the sort, but if this is true, only then the field's Sort property will be used.

This can be useful to the User Interface controls to be able to decide if this field will allow sorting or not. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyBusinessObjectBusinessObject

Holds a reference to the business object that contains this field. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyDBTypeDBType

Returns a Type representation of the .NET type that is equivalent to the underlying database type. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyGroupPositionGroupPosition

GroupPosition can be used to specify the position of the column in the group by clause. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyGroupTypeGroupType

Determines weather a field will be used in group by clause and the aggregate function to use (if any). (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyIsCustom

IsCustom

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for specifying weather this field's name is a custom name or not.

If it is set to true the Name property can be assigned any valid sql String. This can be very useful for creating calculated columns in result sets where the calculated column is created by the database server.


	MyField.IsCustom = true;
	
(Inherited from BaseField)
Public PropertyIsDirtyIsDirty

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for checking if the value of this field has been modified since the business object values were loaded last. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyIsNullIsNull

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for specifying weather this field's current value is Null or not.

When IsNull is set to True the Value is destroyed. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyIsValid Returns a Boolean value indicating the status of all the validators applied to this field. (Inherited from BaseField)
Public PropertyListList

List can be used to specify a list of values that are to be used in the search criteria.

This is only used if the SearchMode is set to List or All. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyNameName

Holds this field's actual column name from the database. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyOperator

Operator

Holds a String value that can be used for specifying search operator. Changing the Operator value also set ths UseInSearch property to true. NOTE: Starting version 3.x you can use Operators class that provides constants for each operator that is implemented.


	MyField.Operator = Operators.EqualTo;
	

OR


	MyField.Operator = Operators.NotEqualTo;
	

OR


	MyField.Operator = Operators.Like;
	
(Inherited from BaseField)
Public PropertyOriginalValue OriginalValue is used to keep track of the original value loaded from the database during Load operation. This value is used for concurrency checking during an Update or Delete method. (Inherited from BaseField)
Public PropertyResultSetNameResultSetName

Holds a String value that can be used for specifying the result set name (i.e. an alias) for this column.

(Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertySearchCondition

SearchCondition

Holds a String value that can be used for specifying search condition.

You can use MoreResults property of the business object and that will automatically assign a value to the SearchCondition property. However, by directly changing the value of this property you gain full control over the search critiria.


	MyField.SearchCondition = " AND ";
	

OR


	MyField.SearchCondition = " OR ";
	
(Inherited from BaseField)
Public PropertySearchModeSearchMode

SearchMode is used to determine weather the field's where clause will be based on the value, list or all. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertySearchPostfix

Holds a String value that can be used as postfix to the search criteria for this field.


	MyField.SearchPostfix = " ) ";
	
(Inherited from BaseField)
Public PropertySearchPrefix

Holds a String value that can be used as prefix to the search criteria for this field.


	MyField.SearchPrefix = " (  ";
	
(Inherited from BaseField)
Public PropertySortSort

Determines weather a field will be used in sort and its sort direction. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertySortPositionSortPosition

SortPosition can be used to specify the position of the column in the sort order. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertySqlParamSqlParam

Holds a IDataParameter value that can be used for specifying the SqlParameter Name.

SqlParam is not serialized and it is also ignored by the xml serialization.

In normal circumstances, there is no need to assign value to this property as it automatically handles it. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyTableNameTableName

Holds a String value that can be used for specifying the table name for this field. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyTableResultSetNameTableResultSetName

Holds a String value that can be used for specifying the table's result set name for this field.

This should match with the value of the business objects ResultSetName property.

In normal circumstances, there is no need to assign value to this property as it automatically handles it. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyUseInSaveUseInSave

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for specifying weather to include this field in specifying the update command. (Inherited from BaseField)

Public PropertyUseInSearchUseInSearch

Holds a Boolean value that can be used for specifying weather to include this field in specifying the search criteria. (Inherited from BaseField)
