The client mapper object that will perform the operation.

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

The object being targeted.

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

Parameters

clientMapper
The client mapper object that will perform the operation.

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

targetObject
The object being targeted.

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

Exceptions
ExceptionDescription

One of the arguments provided to a method is not valid.

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.

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.

The component is not licensed for the operation requested.
Remarks
The "Write" operation writes a value from the mapping source into an OPC item. Only mappings of type OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.LiveMapping.DAItemMapping that include OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.LiveMapping.DAItemMappingOperations.Write in their OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.LiveMapping.DAClientItemMapping.Operations are affected; other mappings are ignored.

This is an extension method (info: C#, VB.NET). In languages that have support for extensions methods (such as C# and VB.NET), you can use the extension method as if it were a regular method on the object that is its first parameter. In other languages (such as with Python.NET), you will call the extension as a static method, and pass it the object on which it acts as its first parameter.

Requirements

Target Platforms: .NET Framework: Windows 10 (selected versions), Windows 11 (selected versions), Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2022; .NET: Linux, macOS, Microsoft Windows
