[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]
Property definitions are items, typically in a designated schema folder, created to contain schema information about properties. To create a property definition, create an item and specify its property values as described in the following table.
| Property | Fully Qualified Property Name | Value |
|---|---|---|
| name | urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-data#name | A well-formed URI. Specify the fully qualified name (which includes the namespace and separator character).
Spaces are not allowed in a name. |
| type | urn:schemas-microsoft-com:datatypes#type | Any supported data type. |
| content class | DAV:contentclass | This value must be:
urn:content-classes:propertydef |
Additionally, the property can contain any number of attributes from the urn:schemas-microsoft-com:exch-data: namespace or from other namespaces.
See the creating property definitions programming task for example code.
Tip You can store short XML pieces as a property values and then parse them using the XMLDOM objects; however, avoid storing large XML files as property values and store them instead as items.
Next step: Create a content class definition.
