// Example usage:
  new MyComponent().Load();
public abstract class LoadableComponent<T> : ILoadableComponent where T : LoadableComponent<T>

Remarks

After the Load() method is called, the component will be loaded and ready for use.

Properties

IsLoaded

Gets a value indicating whether the component is fully loaded.

protected bool IsLoaded { get; }

Property Value

bool

Remarks

When the component is loaded, this property will return true or false depending on the execution of EvaluateLoadedStatus() to indicate the not loaded state.

public virtual string? UnableToLoadMessage { get; set; }

protected abstract bool EvaluateLoadedStatus()

Returns
