Methods

CloneCreates a new object that is a copy of the current instance.
Dereference Replaces the RelationProperty instances that refer external vCards with their ContactID values by RelationProperty instances that contain these VCard instances directly, provided that vCards contains these VCard instances.
EqualsDetermines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object)
GetHashCodeServes as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object)
GetTypeGets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object)
