	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetObjectData	Serializes object data into the SerializationInfo object. (Overrides ProtoElementBase.GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext).)
	GetPropertyValue	Gets the value of the specified domain property. (Inherited from ProtoElementBase.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

A prototype is a compressed, serializable version of an element. A prototype is aware of what properties that element contains so that it can be deserialized into another store.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
