Framework Class

Initializes a new instance of the Framework class.

Returns the set of accepted target types for enum typed model fields. Accepted types are types which have an implicit conversion from enum by this framework.

Gets or sets the data folder the files are located in.

Gets or sets the documentation folder, inside the Documentation root folder for this framework. If there's no documentation for this framework, leave this empty.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether this framework is a legacy framework and has to be sorted as such. Default: false

Gets or sets the name of this framework definition.

Gets or sets the setting definitions defined for this framework

Gets/sets the sort order for this framework in UI elements. Default is 5. A lower number will make this framework show up higher in the list than frameworks with a higher number.

Gets / sets the list of supportedDriverIDs. If this list is empty, all drivers support this framework, otherwise the drivers with the specified driverids are supported.

Gets the list of names of the supported platforms for this framework. If this list is empty, all platforms are supported otherwise the platforms with the names specified.

Gets the list of names of the supported templategroups for this framework. If this list is empty, all templategroups are supported otherwise the templategroups with the names specified.

Gets / sets the value whether this framework supports implicit conversions between numeric values at runtime.

Gets or sets the system type converters defined for this framework. Key is the typeName as specified in the framework's .framework file, value is the codeGeneratorData value specified with this type converter in the framework's .framework file.

Gets or sets the type of the model this framework is used by.

Gets the framework validator used for framework specific validation

Gets or sets the value lists defined for this framework.

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Gets the external type name for the type specified, if any, for the active database. It retrieves this from the target framework of the entity model, as everything derives from that. If no external type is defined for the type specified, it will return null, so the caller knows the type is to be treated as-is.

Serves as the default hash function.

Gets the setting definitions filtered on targetElement.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Parses the definition pointed at by rootNode into a new FrameworkDefinition object.

Parses the framework settings definition pointed at by rootnode into three output lists.

Returns a string that represents the current object.
