ParentCommandAttribute Class

Indicates the parent command for a nested subcommand.

Definition

Namespace: Ookii.CommandLine.Commands
Assembly: Ookii.CommandLine (in Ookii.CommandLine.dll) Version: 4.2.0+a4d3631e4dcc0970081ed435288efdebc1325f83

public sealed class ParentCommandAttribute : Attribute
Inheritance
Object    Attribute    ParentCommandAttribute

Remarks

If you wish to have a command with nested subcommands, apply this attribute to the children of another command. The CommandManager class will only return commands whose ParentCommandTypeName property value matches the CommandOptionsParentCommand property.

The parent command type should be the type of another command. It may be a command derived from the ParentCommand class, but this is not required. The ParentCommand class makes implementing nested subcommands easy, but you may also use any command with your own nested subcommand logic as a parent command.

To create a hierarchy of subcommands, the command with this attribute may itself also have nested subcommands.
