IMetadata

Description

Marks a type as metadata that can be attached to a locale, a table, a shared key, or a per-locale entry.

Implementations are serialized by reference through MetadataCollection, so each metadata item can carry its own serialized fields, for example a Comment or an ExcludeEntryFromEditorExport flag. Apply MetadataAttribute to an implementation to control where it can be attached and how it appears in the editor's "Add Metadata" menu.

Additional resources: MetadataCollection, MetadataAttribute, Comment, ExcludeEntryFromEditorExport
