Methods

Apply(AppEntry, Feed, IIconStore, bool)

Applies this access point to the current machine.

public override void Apply(AppEntry appEntry, Feed feed, IIconStore iconStore, bool machineWide)

Parameters

appEntry AppEntry

The application being integrated.

feed Feed

The feed providing additional metadata, icons, etc. for the application.

iconStore IIconStore

Stores icon files downloaded from the web as local files.

machineWide bool

Apply the configuration machine-wide instead of just for the current user.

Clone()

Creates a deep copy of this AccessPoint instance.

public override AccessPoint Clone()

Returns

AccessPoint

The new copy of the AccessPoint.

Equals(object?)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

public override bool Equals(object? obj)

Parameters

obj object

The object to compare with the current object.

Returns

bool

true if the specified object is equal to the current object; otherwise, false.

Equals(MenuEntry?)

protected bool Equals(MenuEntry? other)

Parameters

other MenuEntry

Returns

bool

GetConflictIDs(AppEntry)

Retrieves identifiers from a namespace global to all AccessPoints. Collisions in this namespace indicate that the respective AccessPoints are in conflict cannot be applied on a system at the same time.

public override IEnumerable<string> GetConflictIDs(AppEntry appEntry)

Parameters

appEntry AppEntry

The application entry containing this access point.

Returns

IEnumerable<string>

Remarks

These identifiers are not guaranteed to stay the same between versions. They should not be stored in files but instead always generated on demand.

Exceptions

KeyNotFoundException

An AccessPoint reference to a Capability is invalid.

GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

public override int GetHashCode()

Returns

int

A hash code for the current object.

Unapply(AppEntry, bool)

Unapply this access point on the current machine.

public override void Unapply(AppEntry appEntry, bool machineWide)

Parameters

appEntry AppEntry

The application entry containing this access point.

machineWide bool

Apply the configuration machine-wide instead of just for the current user.

Exceptions

KeyNotFoundException

An AccessPoint reference to a Capability is invalid.

IOException

A problem occurred while writing to the filesystem or registry.

UnauthorizedAccessException

Write access to the filesystem or registry is not permitted.
