Represents the base class for all property definition classes. A property definition is created from a property template and holds mutable property metadata. Each property definition class corresponds to a specific property data type (for example, PropertyDefinitionBinary defines a property that returns a binary value, PropertyDefinitionBoolean defines a property that returns a Boolean value, and so on). When a property definition is added to a class definition's PropertyDefinitions collection, a user-defined property is added to that class.

Many of the metaproperties that originate from a property template can be modified on the property definition of the class, while other metaproperties can be modified only on the property template. For a list of modifiable metaproperties and how they can be customized, see Modifying Custom Metaproperties.
