Extension Methods

	Name	Description
	AddExtension(Guid)	Overloaded. Extend this ModelElement with newly instantiated extension of the identified domain type. An InvalidOperationException will be thrown if the element already has an extension of that type. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	AddExtension(Type)	Overloaded. Extend this ModelElement with a newly instantiated extension of the specified type. An InvalidOperationException will be thrown if the element already has an extension of that type. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	AddExtension(DomainClassInfo)	Overloaded. Extend this ModelElement with a newly instantiated extension of the specified domain type. An InvalidOperationException will be thrown if the element already has an extension of that type. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	AddExtension(ExtensionElement)	Overloaded. Extend this ModelElement with a specific extension. An InvalidOperationException will be thrown if the element already has an extension of the same type. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	AddExtension<T>()	Overloaded. Extend this ModelElement with a newly instantiated extension of a particular type. An InvalidOperationException will be thrown if the element already has an extension of the same type. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	CanDelete	Deletes the element from the model. (Defined by ImmutabilityExtensionMethods.)
	GetAllExtensions	Return an enumerable that performs a breadth first traversal across the tree of extension elements embedded in this ModelElement. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	GetBaseElement	Returns the root of the virtual MEL in which the specified ModelElement is participating. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	GetExtension(Guid)	Overloaded. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	GetExtension(Type)	Overloaded. Get the ExtensionElement of the specified type from the available extensions of this ModelElement. If the element has no such extension then an InvalidOperationException will be raised. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	GetExtension(DomainClassInfo)	Overloaded. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	GetExtension<T>()	Overloaded. Get the ExtensionElement of the specified type from the available extensions of this ModelElement. If the element has no such extension then an InvalidOperationException will be raised. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	GetLocks	Get the lock flags for this element. This will include any locks enabled on the Partition containing the element. (Defined by ImmutabilityExtensionMethods.)
	IsExtendedBy(Guid)	Overloaded. Query whether this ModelElement is currently extended by an ExtensionElement of a particular type. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
	IsExtendedBy(Type)	Overloaded. Query whether this ModelElement is currently extended by an ExtensionElement of a particular type. (Defined by ModelElementExtensionMethods.)
