service PropertyHierarchy
Description
provides access to and information about properties and subproperties of an implementation.

Properties in a property set may be full-fledged objects that have properties themselves (and so on recursively), thereby forming a hierarchy of properties. This service describes such a hierarchy, and allows direct access even to subproperties.

See also
::com::sun::star::beans::XProperty
Properties of an implementation that are objects themselves will often implement ::com::sun::star::beans::XProperty to allow direct access to information about the object. If such objects have properties of their own, they should fully implement PropertyHierarchy again.

Exported Interfaces - Summary
::com::sun::star::beans::XPropertySet

provides access to and information about the immediate properties of an implementation.

::com::sun::star::beans::XMultiPropertySet

provides access to and information about the immediate properties of an implementation. (details)

::com::sun::star::beans::XHierarchicalPropertySet

provides access to and information about the whole hierarchy of properties and subproperties of an implementation.

::com::sun::star::beans::XMultiHierarchicalPropertySet

provides access to and information about the whole hierarchy of properties and subproperties of an implementation. (details)

Exported Interfaces - Details
::com::sun::star::beans::XPropertySet
Description
provides access to and information about the immediate properties of an implementation.
::com::sun::star::beans::XMultiPropertySet
Description
provides access to and information about the immediate properties of an implementation.

This interface allows retrieving or setting multiple properties at once. Accesses are guaranteed to occur as single atomic operations even if multiple threads are accessing the object simultaneously.

::com::sun::star::beans::XHierarchicalPropertySet
Description
provides access to and information about the whole hierarchy of properties and subproperties of an implementation.
::com::sun::star::beans::XMultiHierarchicalPropertySet
Description
provides access to and information about the whole hierarchy of properties and subproperties of an implementation.

This interface allows retrieving or setting multiple properties at once. Accesses are guaranteed to occur as single atomic operations even if multiple threads are accessing the object simultaneously.

Apache OpenOffice is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
