SetProperty Method

Sets the value of a specific RSS feed property.

Syntax

procedure SetProperty(PropertyName: String; PropertyValue: String);

Remarks

This method is intended for extending functionality of the RSS component. It will set the value for a specific field of this RSS feed. Property is the name of the property according to the following convention: root/element@attribute. The root field can be any of the four following values:


channel	This treats the channel as the root level, and element is any property of the channel. If the empty string ("") is supplied for the root field, the component will assume channel as the root.
image	This treats the channel's image as the root level, and element is any property of an image.
textInput	This treats the channel's textInput as the root level, and element is any property of an textInput.
item[x]	This treats the channel's x-th item as the root level The field element is any property of an item.

The element field can be any property of the root field, and attribute can be any property of that field. If an attribute is not supplied, Value will be placed in the text portion of element. For example:

  RSSControl.SetProperty("item[5]/guid@isPermaLink", "true")

Note: in order to add non-standard fields (i.e. fields that are not defined in the RSS specification), element must be prefixed with a namespace that defines that field. The same applies for the attribute field. Use the Namespaces properties to define and list namespaces.
