The IInfo type exposes the following members.

Properties

	Name	Description
Public property	AllowPartialUpdate	If true, the object allows partial updates.
Public property	ColumnNames	Column names. (Inherited from IDataContainer.)
Public property	Generalized	Generalized interface of this object.
Public property	HasChanged	Returns true if the object changed. (Inherited from IAdvancedDataContainer.)
Public property	IsComplete	Returns true if the object is complete (has all columns). (Inherited from IAdvancedDataContainer.)
Public property	Item	Gets or sets the value of the column. (Inherited from ISimpleDataContainer.)
Public property	ObjectSettings	Object settings
Public property	Properties	Properties of the object available through GetProperty. (Inherited from IHierarchicalObject.)
Public property	RelatedData	Custom data connected to the object. (Inherited from IRelatedData.)
Public property	TypeInfo	Object type info

Methods

	Name	Description
Public method	ChangedColumns	Returns list of column names which values were changed. (Inherited from IAdvancedDataContainer.)
Public method	CloneObject	Creates a clone of the object
Public method	ContainsColumn	Returns true if the object contains specified column. (Inherited from IDataContainer.)
Public method	DataChanged	Returns true if the object changed. (Inherited from IAdvancedDataContainer.)
Public method	Delete	Deletes the object using appropriate provider
Public method	Destroy	Destroys the object including its version history using appropriate provider
Public method	ExecuteWithOriginalData	Executes the given action using original data of the object
Public method	GetOriginalValue	Returns the original value of column. (Inherited from IAdvancedDataContainer.)
Public method	GetProperty	Returns property with given name (either object or property value). (Inherited from IHierarchicalObject.)
Public method	GetValue	Returns value of column. (Inherited from ISimpleDataContainer.)
Public method	Insert	Inserts the object using appropriate provider
Public method	ItemChanged	Returns true if the item on specified column name changed. (Inherited from IAdvancedDataContainer.)
Public method	MacroRepresentation	Returns the object which represents current object in the macro engine. Whenever the object implementing IMacroObject interface is used within macro engine this method is called its result is used instead. (Inherited from IMacroObject.)
Public method	MakeComplete	Makes the object data complete. (Inherited from IAdvancedDataContainer.)
Public method	ResetChanges	Resets the object changes and keeps the new values as unchanged. (Inherited from IAdvancedDataContainer.)
Public method	RevertChanges	Reverts the object changes to the original values. (Inherited from IAdvancedDataContainer.)
Public method	SetValue	Sets value of column. (Inherited from ISimpleDataContainer.)
Public method	SubmitChanges	Submits the changes in the object to the database.
Public method	ToMacroString	Returns the default text representation in the macros (this is called when the expression is resolved to its final value and should be converted to string). (Inherited from IMacroObject.)
Public method	TryGetProperty(String, Object)	Returns property with given name (either object or property value). (Inherited from IHierarchicalObject.)
Public method	TryGetProperty(String, Object, Boolean)	Returns property with given name (either object or property value). (Inherited from IVirtualHierarchicalObject.)
Public method	TryGetValue	Returns value of column. (Inherited from IDataContainer.)
Public method	Update	Updates the database entity using appropriate provider
