vim.option.OptionManager
|
|
========================
|
|
This managed object type is used for managing key/value pair options.
|
|
* You can define options on the fly, in a logical tree using a dot notation for keys. For example, "Ethernet.Connection" describes the Connection option as child of the Ethernet option.
|
|
* You can use the queryMethod to retrieve a single property or a subset of properties based on the dot notation path.

|
* System.View on the root folder, if this is used to read settings in the
|
|
* client
|
|
* subtree.
|
|
* System.Read on the root folder, if this is used to read all settings or any settings beside those in the
|
|
* client
|
|
* subtree.
|
|
* System.Read on the host, if this is used to read the advanced options for a host configuration.
