Contains Method (key)

[This is preliminary documentation and is subject to change.]

Determines if the collection contains a property with the specified key. It does not check the parent properties class, so calling GetProperty with the specified key could still return a value.

Declaration Syntax

Visual Basic

Visual C++

public bool Contains(
	string key
)

Public Function Contains ( _
	key As String _
) As Boolean

public:
virtual bool Contains (
	String^ key
) sealed

Parameters

key (String): The key of the property to check for in the collection

Return Value

TRUE if the specified property is contained in the collection, otherwise FALSE

Remarks

To determine if this class or any parent contains a key with the specified value, call GetProperty( key ) and check to see if the returned value is not null. Alternately, you can check each parent in the chain by repeatedly calling .Parent and then calling Contains on the parent.
