SettingsObject Methods

Clone this object using serialization.

Copy this object to target object.

Provide GUI counterpart for this custom settings type. It will be shown as Export Profile Field settings tab, Profile Settings page or User Settings page depending on which type param this object is from ExportBaseFIELDSETTINGSTYPE, EXPORTSETTINGSTYPE, PROFILESETTINGSTYPE, USERSETTINGSTYPE.

Internally used for deserializing this object from store.

Deserialize your object from s. Do not otherwise manipulate or modify e.g. Position. It is highly recommended to use StreamExtensions for popping base types from s.

Data must be deserialized in same order as is serialized at Serialize(Stream).

Make sure you deserialize according to Version variable and then set it to correspond current object version.

Returns current version in format YYss where YY is major and ss is minor, e.g. 2401 for CT 2024 SP1.

Called immediately after this object is created as new or when reinitialization is needed before deserialization.

Called immediately after this object is created as new or when reinitialization is needed before deserialization. Calls Init(ICTExtension) internally but also sets Context as given.

This function is meant to be sealed -implemented by CUSTOMTOOLS core objects to define the base object type, so it can be distinquished from script extended ones. This is needed for successful deserialization. See also HasSerializedCustomData. For implementation that do not override existing extensions, this can be ignored.

Internally used for serializing and storing this object.

Serialize your object to s. Do not otherwise manipulate or modify e.g. Position. It is highly recommended to use StreamExtensions for pushing base types into s.

Data must be serialized in same order as is deserialized at Deserialize(Stream).
