Creates a selection list property with an existing selection list.

Parameters

Name of the property The name cannot be null, empty, or longer than 255 characters. The string used for the name will be trimmed of leading and trailing whitespace when it is stored and is case-insensitive during name comparison.

selectionList

An existing selection list; cannot be null.

Return Value

An ISelectionListProperty.

Remarks

If the selection list is not a persisted object, an InvalidOperationException will be thrown when IDataEntryTemplate.Store is called. The following example demonstrates creating a selection list and a selection list property.

// Create a selection list representing states
String[] stateOptionValues = {"CA", "MA"};
ISelectionList stateSelectionList = selectionListManager.CreateSelectionList(rootFolder, "State Selection List", stateOptionValues);
stateSelectionList.Store();
// Create a selection list property that uses the selection list
ISelectionListProperty stateSelectionListProperty = propertyManager.CreateSelectionListProperty("State Selection List Property", "Choose a state.", stateSelectionList);
// Get the selection list
ISelectionList originalSelectionList = stateSelectionListProperty.GetSelectionList();
// The returned selection list is the same as the stateSelectionList above.
// Set the selection list on the property
stateSelectionListProperty.SetSelectionList(originalSelectionList);
// The selection list is identical, so there
// is no functional change to the selection list property.
