Defines how a member's value is captured in the memento snapshot.

public enum MementoCaptureStrategy

Fields

ByReference = 0

Capture the reference as-is (shallow copy). Safe for immutable types and value types. WARNING: For mutable reference types, mutations will affect all snapshots.

Clone = 1

Clone the value using a known mechanism (ICloneable, record with-expression, etc.). Generator emits an error if no suitable clone mechanism is available.

Custom = 3

Use a custom capture mechanism provided by the user. Requires the user to implement a partial method for custom capture logic.

DeepCopy = 2

Perform a deep copy of the member value. Only available when the generator can safely emit deep copy logic.
