    name : String, 
    ... attributes : Attribute[]
)

Parameters

• name
  Type: System.String

  The name of a property.

• attributes
  Type: array<System.Attribute[]

  A set of attributes that should be added or modified.

Remarks

This method allows changing the attributes associated with an existing property. For example, in some cases it might be necessary for one property to become read only based on a value set on another property. When this second property is updated, a data provider would call the ModifyProperty method, passing a ReadOnlyAttribute with the correct value.
