Enum MenuInstantiationMode

Controls when a menu's visual instance is created during the application lifecycle.

Namespace: Serenity.Menu.Domain.Enums

Assembly: Serenity.Menu.Domain.dll

Syntax

public enum MenuInstantiationMode

Remarks

PreloadOnStartup is value 0 so that existing serialized assets (which have no stored value for this field) deserialize to it, preserving the current eager-construction behavior. This enum is configuration-only; no runtime code branches on it yet.

Fields

Name	Description
LazyOnFirstOpen	Reserved for a future implementation: defer the menu's visual construction until the menu is first shown. Not yet honored by any runtime code.
PreloadOnStartup	The menu's visual instance is built during Serenity startup. This is the default and matches the historical behavior in which every menu is eagerly created during installation.
