Represents the base class for all property description classes. A property description object holds immutable metadata that describes a specific class property. Each property description class corresponds to a specific property data type (for example, PropertyDescriptionBinary defines a property that returns a binary value, PropertyDescriptionBoolean defines a property that returns a Boolean value, and so on).

Because all of its properties are read-only, you cannot directly modify a property description object. You can, however, modify a property definition object, which holds the mutable metadata of the property. For a list of modifiable metaproperties and how they can be customized, see Modifying Custom Metaproperties.
