public void SetMetaObject(
	string name,
	Object? value
)

VB

Public Sub SetMetaObject ( 
	name As String,
	value As Object
)

C++

public:
virtual void SetMetaObject(
	String^ name, 
	Object^ value
) sealed

F#

abstract SetMetaObject : 
        name : string * 
        value : Object -> unit 
override SetMetaObject : 
        name : string * 
        value : Object -> unit

Parameters

name String: Name of the metadata value to set.
value Object: The metadata value to set. If , the value will be removed.

Implements

IExpandoResourceSetSetMetaObject(String, Object)

Remarks

If value is , a null reference will be explicitly stored. Its effect is similar to the RemoveMetaObject method (GetMetaObject will return in both cases), but if has been set, it will returned among the results of the GetMetadataEnumerator method.

value can be a ResXDataNode as well, its value will be interpreted correctly and added to the ResXResourceSet with the specified name.

If value is a ResXFileRef, then a file reference will be added to the ResXResourceSet. On saving its path will be made relative to the specified basePath argument of the Save methods. If forceEmbeddedResources is on saving, the file references will be converted to embedded ones.

Note

Not just ResXDataNode and ResXFileRef are handled but System.Resources.ResXDataNode and System.Resources.ResXFileRef as well. The compatibility with the system versions is provided without any reference to System.Windows.Forms.dll, where those types are located.

Exceptions

ObjectDisposedException	The ResXResourceSet is already disposed.
ArgumentNullException	name is .
