Property Value

The value of this property cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Exceptions
ExceptionDescription

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.

Remarks

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.ServerDescriptor has an implicit conversion from System.Guid, System.String and OpcLabs.EasyOpc.ServerElement, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a GUID (representing the CLSID of the server), a string (representing the so-called OPC server descriptor string, such as a ProgID or the URL of the server), or a OpcLabs.EasyOpc.ServerElement object (result from OPC browsing), in place of OpcLabs.EasyOpc.ServerDescriptor value when setting this property, and the corresponding OPC server descriptor will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.ServerDescriptor.FromGuid, OpcLabs.EasyOpc.ServerDescriptor.FromString or OpcLabs.EasyOpc.ServerDescriptor.FromServerElement static method instead.

Requirements
