Description

Represents a binding between a dictionary object and a using object, such as a diagram object and contains the IDs of the using object. For example for a domain bound to an attribute, it has the attribute's IDs.

Remarks

This Object represents a binding between a dictionary object (Owner of the parent collection) and a using object (which can be a diagram object or a dictionary object).

Objects of this type have four read-only properties:

  • Object type (the type of the using object)
  • Using Objects ID
  • Using Objects ParentID
  • Using Objects ModelID
    For Using Objects that are dictionary objects, the ModelID is zero.

For example, for a domain bound to an attribute:

  • the BoundObject has an ObjectType of 3,
  • the attributes ID for an ID,
  • the parent entity ID for a ParentID, and
  • the parent Models ID for a ModelID.

However, if the dictionary object is an attachment and the using object is a domain, then:

  • the ObjectType is 19 (for Domain),
  • the ID is the domain's ID,
  • the ParentID is the DataDictionary's ID, and
  • the ModelID is zero.

If the using object is or was an Entity, then:

  • the ID is the entity ID, and
  • both the parent ID and the ModelID are the parent model's ID.
