DAItemPoint Constructor(ServerDescriptor,DAItemDescriptor)



OpcLabs.EasyOpcClassic Assembly > OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.Connectivity Namespace > DAItemPoint Class > DAItemPoint Constructor : DAItemPoint Constructor(ServerDescriptor,DAItemDescriptor)
The point's server descriptor.

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 this parameter, 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.

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

The point's item descriptor.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAItemDescriptor has an implicit conversion from System.String and OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.AddressSpace.DANodeElement, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a string (representing the qualified name of the node), or a OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.AddressSpace.DANodeElement object (result from OPC browsing), in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC DA item descriptor will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAItemDescriptor.FromString or OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAItemDescriptor.FromDANodeElement static method instead.

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

Initializes a new instance of the class, with given server and item descriptors.

Parameters

serverDescriptor
The point's server descriptor.

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 this parameter, and the corresponding OPC server descriptor will be constructed automatically.

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

itemDescriptor
The point's item descriptor.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAItemDescriptor has an implicit conversion from System.String and OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.AddressSpace.DANodeElement, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a string (representing the qualified name of the node), or a OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.AddressSpace.DANodeElement object (result from OPC browsing), in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC DA item descriptor will be constructed automatically.
