Public Overridable Property Container As AnnContainer

Visual Basic (Usage)	Copy Code
Dim instance As AnnObject Dim value As AnnContainer   instance.Container = value   value = instance.Container

public virtual AnnContainer Container {get; set;}

public:
virtual property AnnContainer^ Container {
   AnnContainer^ get();
   void set (AnnContainer^ value);
}

Return Value

This example creates two containers, adds an object to the first container then moves it to the second while checking the Container property of the object.

Visual Basic

Copy Code

Public Sub AnnObject_Container()    ' create 2 containers    Dim firstContainer As AnnContainer = New AnnContainer()    firstContainer.Name = "First Container"    Dim secondContainer As AnnContainer = New AnnContainer()    secondContainer.Name = "Second Container"    ' add an object to the first container    Dim line As AnnLineObject = New AnnLineObject()    line.Name = "Line1"    ' add the object to the first container    firstContainer.Objects.Add(line)    Dim s As String = String.Format("Container: {0}", line.Container.Name)    MessageBox.Show(s)    ' move the object to the second container    firstContainer.Objects.Remove(line)    secondContainer.Objects.Add(line)    s = String.Format("Container: {0}", line.Container.Name)    MessageBox.Show(s) End Sub

C#

Copy Code

public void AnnObject_Container()  {     // create 2 containers     AnnContainer firstContainer = new AnnContainer();     firstContainer.Name = "First Container";     AnnContainer secondContainer = new AnnContainer();     secondContainer.Name = "Second Container";     // add an object to the first container     AnnLineObject line = new AnnLineObject();     line.Name = "Line1";       // add the object to the first container     firstContainer.Objects.Add(line);     string s = string.Format("Container: {0}", line.Container.Name);     MessageBox.Show(s);       // move the object to the second container     firstContainer.Objects.Remove(line);     secondContainer.Objects.Add(line);     s = string.Format("Container: {0}", line.Container.Name);     MessageBox.Show(s);  }

An AnnObject can be part of one AnnContainer only at any given time.

When adding or removing objects to or from a container, you do not need to manually set this property to the container value: this operation is performed internally by the LEADTOOLS annotation toolkit. However, you can check the value of this property to determine the container to which a certain object currently belongs.
