'Usage
 

[NotNull()]
public string operator implicit( 
   UAQualifiedName qualifiedName
)

[NotNull()]
public:
operator String^ ( 
   UAQualifiedName^ qualifiedName
)

Parameters

qualifiedName

The qualified name to be converted.

Because the UAQualifiedName has an implicit conversion from System.String, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a string (representing the expanded text of the qualified name) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC UA qualified name will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the UAQualifiedName Constructor(String) constructor instead.

The value of this parameter can be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Return Value

For non-null inputs, this operator is equivalent to ExpandedText.

This method or property does not throw any exceptions, aside from execution exceptions such as System.Threading.ThreadAbortException or System.OutOfMemoryException.
