Assembly: DevExpress.ExpressApp.Xpo.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.ExpressApp.Xpo

#Declaration

#Returns

Type Description
ITypesInfo

An ITypesInfo object supplying metadata on types used in an XAF application.

#Remarks

Since the GetTypesInfo method is static, you can call in from any appropriate context. However, it is recommended to call the XpoTypesInfoHelper.ForceInitialize method before using GetTypesInfo, because the required metadata information may be not initialized yet.

using DevExpress.ExpressApp.DC;
using DevExpress.ExpressApp.Xpo;
// ...
XpoTypesInfoHelper.ForceInitialize();
ITypesInfo typesInfo = XpoTypesInfoHelper.GetTypesInfo();
