DependenciesCalculator.GetDeleteDependents Method

Evaluates dependencies for the delete operation over the specified array of objects in the specified database; and, if it is specified, evaluates dependencies recursively on the returned collection.

Namespace:  Microsoft.AnalysisServices
Assembly:  Microsoft.AnalysisServices (in Microsoft.AnalysisServices.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function GetDeleteDependents ( _
    database As Database, _
    items As Object(), _
    recursive As Boolean _
) As Hashtable
'Usage
Dim instance As DependenciesCalculator
Dim database As Database
Dim items As Object()
Dim recursive As Boolean
Dim returnValue As Hashtable

returnValue = instance.GetDeleteDependents(database, _
    items, recursive)
public Hashtable GetDeleteDependents(
    Database database,
    Object[] items,
    bool recursive
)
public:
Hashtable^ GetDeleteDependents(
    Database^ database, 
    array<Object^>^ items, 
    bool recursive
)
member GetDeleteDependents : 
        database:Database * 
        items:Object[] * 
        recursive:bool -> Hashtable 
public function GetDeleteDependents(
    database : Database, 
    items : Object[], 
    recursive : boolean
) : Hashtable

Parameters

  • items
    Type: array<System.Object[]
    Specifies the intended array of objects to be deleted.
  • recursive
    Type: System.Boolean
    A Boolean value that states whether dependencies are to be calculated recursively over the dependent objects returned.

Return Value

Type: System.Collections.Hashtable
A collection of key and value pairs of objects that would be removed, invalidated, or modified by the intended delete operation. The key contains the dependent object and the value contains an array of DependencyResult objects.

Remarks

All dependent objects are returned in the System.Collections.Hashtable collection, whether recursive is true or false. When recursive is true the collection might be longer.

The collection is organized according to the hash code of the key.
