C++ Class to .NET Class Mappings

Wherever the native C++ class methods use pass-by-reference semantics to return data, the corresponding .NET methods shown in the following table return the object instead of using pass-by-reference semantics.

C++ Class	.NET Class
class `apache::geode::client::AttributesFactory`	Sealed class `AttributesFactory`
class `apache::geode::client::AttributesMutator`	Sealed class `AttributesMutator`
class `apache::geode::client::Cache`	Sealed class `Cache`
abstract class `apache::geode::client::Cacheable`	Interface `IPdxSerializable` or interface `IGeodeSerializable`
class `apache::geode::client::CacheableBytes`	`Byte[]` or `ArrayList<Byte>`
class `apache::geode::client::Cacheableint32`	`Int32`
class `apache::geode::client::CacheableString`	`String`
abstract class `apache::geode::client::CacheableKey`	You can use any type that implements `hashcode` and `equals`. The generic .NET built-in types are all suitable.
abstract class `apache::geode::client::CacheListener`	Interface `ICacheListener`
class `apache::geode::client::CacheLoader`	Interface `ICacheLoader` plus static class `CacheLoader`
class `apache::geode::client::CacheWriter`	Interface class `ICacheWriter`
class `apache::geode::client::CacheFactory`	Sealed class `CacheFactory`
class `apache::geode::client::DataInput`	With `IPdxSerializable`, `IPdxReader.` With `IGeodeSerializable`, sealed class `DataInput`.
class `apache::geode::client::DataOutput`	With `IPdxSerializable`, `IPdxWriter.` With `IGeodeSerializable`, sealed class `DataOutput`.
class `apache::geode::client::DiskPolicyType`	enum `DiskPolicyType` plus static class `DiskPolicy` containing convenience methods for `DiskPolicyType` enumeration
class `apache::geode::client::DistributedSystem`	Sealed class `DistributedSystem`
class `apache::geode::client::EntryEvent`	Sealed class `EntryEvent`
class `apache::geode::client::Exception`	Class `GeodeException`
all other exceptions deriving from `apache::geode::client::Exception`	Corresponding exceptions deriving from `GeodeException`
class `apache::geode::client::ExpirationAction`	enum `ExpirationAction` plus static class `Expiration` containing convenience methods for `ExpirationAction` enumeration
class `apache::geode::client::Log`	Static class `Log`. The native `Log::log` method is mapped to `Log.Write` to avoid the conflict with the class name which is reserved for the constructors of Log class. The various loglevel `Throw` or `Catch` methods are not implemented, since they are redundant to `Log::Log` , `Log::LogThrow`, and `Log::LogCatch` methods that take `LogLevel` as a parameter.
enum `apache::geode::client::MemberType`	enum `MemberType`
abstract class `apache::geode::client::PersistanceManager`	Not provided. You can register a C++ implementation using `AttributesFactory.SetPersistenceManager` but you cannot implement a new one in .NET
class `apache::geode::client::Properties`	Sealed class `Properties`
class `apache::geode::client::Properties::Visitor`	Delegate `PropertiesVisitor`
abstract class `apache::geode::client::Region`	Class `IRegion`
class `apache::geode::client::RegionAttributes`	Sealed class `RegionAttributes`
class `apache::geode::client::ScopeType`	enum `ScopeType` plus static class `Scope` containing convenience methods for `ScopeType` enumeration+
abstract class `apache::geode::client::Serializable`	Two options: Interface `IPdxSerializable` Interface `IGeodeSerializable` plus wrapper `Serializable` class for native `Serializable` and `UserData` objects. The native `toString` method is not provided, since the `ToString` method of the base object class provides the same functionality.
class `apache::geode::client::SystemProperties`	Sealed class `SystemProperties`
class `apache::geode::client::UserData`	Two options: Interface `IPdxSerializable` Interface `IGeodeSerializable`
class `apache::geode::client::VectorT<T>`	Array of the given type, such as T[]
