Remarks

We do not need to use or set the PropertyType enumeration in the CM. The CM does not know about Environment or Global properties, and does not create Output properties. We can just verify that we haven't read a PropertyType.Reserved property ourselves. So the CM only represents Normal properties.

Properties

AllParents	All parent elements of this element, going up to the ProjectRootElement. None if this itself is a ProjectRootElement. None if this itself has not been attached to a parent yet. (Inherited from ProjectElement)
Condition	Gets or sets the Condition value. It will return empty string IFF a condition attribute is legal but it’s not present or has no value. It will return null IFF a Condition attribute is illegal on that element. Removes the attribute if the value to set is empty. It is possible for derived classes to throw an InvalidOperationException if setting the condition is not applicable for those elements. (Inherited from ProjectElement)
ConditionLocation	Location of the "Condition" attribute on this element, if any. If there is no such attribute, returns null. (Inherited from ProjectElement)
