ByteLength
Summary Returns the length (in bytes) of a single configuration
property element.
Multiplying this length by the number returned by the
Dimension property gives you the total length (in bytes) of
this configuration property. If this configuration property is
not an array, the Dimension property returns 1, and the
ByteLength property returns the full length of the
configuration property.
Note: If a configuration property inherits its type from a
network variable that supports changeable types, and the
type of that network variable is changed, this property will
not be updated to reflect the change. You can check if the
configuration property inherits its type by reading the
TypeInherits property.
