Creates a selection list property with an existing selection list.

Parameters

name

The name of the property; 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.

description

The description of the property; cannot be null or longer than 255 characters.

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.
