Syntax

public bool CreateLinkInstanceOnly { get; set; }

Public Property CreateLinkInstanceOnly As Boolean
	Get
	Set

public:
property bool CreateLinkInstanceOnly {
	bool get ();
	void set (bool value);
}

member CreateLinkInstanceOnly : bool with get, set

Property Value

Boolean

Remarks

If this value is false (default), we will create a linked symbol and instance. If this value is true, then we will re-use an existing linked symbol file and create an instance only. The intention is for CreateLinkInstanceOnly to be true when we are trying to create a new link, when the link already exists in the host file.
