PropertyExtensionPropertyDefinitionControl DataObject

PropertyExtensionPropertyDefinitionControl is used to get the property definition of the specified properties in the virtual member manager property extension repository.

The PropertyExtensionPropertyDefinitionControl is extended from PropertyDefinitionControl and is used in the input data object of the getSchema method of SchemaService.

The structure of a PropertyExtensionPropertyDefinitionControl data object consists of:

repositoryId
specifies the ID of the repository in the virtual member manager configuration XML file. For example, if an LDAP server is configured in the virtual member manager configuration XML file with the ID LDAP1, you set the repositoryId to LDAP1 in the DataTypeControl. The getSchema method returns the supported data types for the repository LDAP1. If the repositoryId is not specified in the DataTypeControl, the supported data types in the virtual member manager level are returned.
Note: This property is ignored.
propertyNames
contains the list of the properties that the caller wants to get the definition for. The property names need to be the qualified property names which mean they contain the namespace prefix. If the propertyNames property is not specified, all the properties defined for the specified entity type are returned.
entityTypeName
specifies the entity type. The entityTypeName also is a qualified name which means that it contains the namespace prefix of the entity type.
