Hi,

Maybe I'm missing it, but I can't find a way to verify, at runtime, if a BO has child BO properties.

I would think of a HasChildren or IsParent property, but it's not there.

Thank you.

If you are using managed properties, then you can call FieldManager.GetChildren() to get a list of child objects.

If you aren't using managed properties, you could probably achieve something similar (although at much greater expense) by reflecting on the object properties and see if they implement interfaces that are unique to child objects (e.g. IUndoableObject)

Hey thanks a lot.

I do use managed properties, so FieldManager.GetChildren() does the job.
