Method Restore

Namespace

MailFathom.Application.Rules

Assembly

MailFathom.Application.dll

Restore(string)

Reads back an identity this system derived earlier and recorded.

public static MailRuleSetRevision Restore(string value)

Parameters

value string

The recorded identity.

Returns

MailRuleSetRevision

The revision, which compares equal to a freshly derived one of the same rule set.

Remarks

A durable record of a run has to say which rule set the run was bound to, and it survives the process that derived it — so the identity has to come back from storage rather than only out of Create(IReadOnlyList<MailRuleDeclaration>). The shape is checked rather than trusted, because a value that is not one this type produces would compare unequal to every rule set and silently make every run look superseded.

Exceptions

ArgumentException

Thrown when the value is not an identity this type could have produced.
