Microsoft Identity Integration Server 2003 Developer Reference

CSEntry.ObjectClass

The ObjectClass property retrieves a ValueCollection object that contains the object class of the connector space entry.

Note  You can write to this property only in the IMVSynchronization.Provision method.

[C#]
public ValueCollection ObjectClass {get; set;}
[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Property ObjectClass As ValueCollection

Exceptions

Exception type Condition
ArgumentNullException The property value is null.
InvalidOperationException There are no object classes or the CSEntry object is a disconnector object.

Remarks

The ObjectClass property usually returns a ValueCollection with a single entry that has the same value as the ObjectType property. For file-based management agents, the ObjectClass property returns a ValueCollection that contains one item, and ObjectType returns a String. For the Active Directory management agent, ObjectClass returns multiple items in its ValueCollection, and ObjectType returns only the primary object type. For example, for a user object, ObjectClass returns top, person, organizationalPerson, and user; ObjectType returns user. Use ObjectType to determine the type of a connector space object, such as if you want to determine whether an object is a user or a group.
