    DoRootFolder Property (FileSystemItem)
    In This Topic
    Gets a reference to the root folder of this item.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Protected MustOverride ReadOnly Property DoRootFolder As AbstractFolder
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As FileSystemItem
    Dim value As AbstractFolder
     
    value = instance.DoRootFolder
    protected abstract AbstractFolder DoRootFolder {get;}

    Property Value

    An AbstractFolder object that represents the folder at the root of the path of this item, or a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if a root folder is not available.
    Remarks

    A root folder should represent the starting point of a folder hierarchy. On a physical disk, it is usually represented by a drive letter ("C:\") or UNC root ("\\server\share\").

    If the current item is the root of a folder hierarchy, the RootFolder property should return a reference to itself.

    If a root folder is not available, the RootFolder property should return a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

    Requirements

    Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
