What is relationship between the propertyobject and the variables?

[xiaochan]

 Hi:

   The propertyobject is the basic class in Teststand. I saw many examples that created variables from the "propertyobject" class. What i

want to ask is what is relationship between them. Can i consider  that in Teststand variables are the object of  the "propertyobject" class?

In additional, which objects do the propertyobject class creat except the objects mentioned the teststand API in help file ? Any help appreciated!

Each variable is an individual instance of PropertyObject. But because of the fact that PropertyObject is the ancestor of most of the other TS classes (inheritance hierarchy, very flat in TS!), all those class instances also inherit the possiblity to treat them as PropertyObject.

So each Step can be either handled as "Step" or as "PropertyObject".
