Public ReadOnly Property Executables As Executables

Property Value

Executables

An Executables collection.

Sample Output:

PackagePath: \Package\{8A18B94E-1176-429E-BB3D-6F3F1E0C9070}

Number of Executables in ForLoop: 2

Number of precedence constraints: 1

Remarks

All containers, including the ForLoop, have an Executables property that contains the collection of executable objects processed by the run-time engine during execution of the container. The order of execution of the objects in the collection is determined by the PrecedenceConstraints that are inherited and implemented by the container.
