QuerySourceConditions Method (EasyAEClientCore)

Finds out event conditions associated with the specified source name. Uses server descriptor for specifying the OPC server.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
Public Function QuerySourceConditions( _
   ByVal serverDescriptor As ServerDescriptor, _
   ByVal sourceNodeDescriptor As AENodeDescriptor _
) As AEConditionElementCollection

'Usage
 
Dim instance As EasyAEClientCore
Dim serverDescriptor As ServerDescriptor
Dim sourceNodeDescriptor As AENodeDescriptor
Dim value As AEConditionElementCollection
 
value = instance.QuerySourceConditions(serverDescriptor, sourceNodeDescriptor)

public AEConditionElementCollection QuerySourceConditions( 
   ServerDescriptor serverDescriptor,
   AENodeDescriptor sourceNodeDescriptor
)

public:
AEConditionElementCollection^ QuerySourceConditions( 
   ServerDescriptor^ serverDescriptor,
   AENodeDescriptor^ sourceNodeDescriptor
)

Parameters

serverDescriptor: The OPC server involved in the operation.
sourceNodeDescriptor: A source node descriptor, usually expressed as qualified source name. Only the conditions associated with this source are returned.

Return Value

A collection of condition elements, one element for each condition of the given source.

Exceptions

Exception Description

Exception	Description
System.ArgumentNullException	A `null` reference (`Nothing` in Visual Basic) is passed to a method that does not accept it as a valid argument. This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.
OpcLabs.EasyOpc.OperationModel.OpcException	The OPC "Classic" (or OPC XML-DA) operation has failed. This operation exception in uniformly used to allow common handling of various kinds of errors. The System.Exception.InnerException always contains information about the actual error cause. This is an operation error that depends on factors external to your program, and thus cannot be always avoided. Your code must handle it appropriately.

OpcLabs.EasyOpc.OperationModel.OpcException

The OPC "Classic" (or OPC XML-DA) operation has failed. This operation exception in uniformly used to allow common handling of various kinds of errors. The System.Exception.InnerException always contains information about the actual error cause.
