Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
<NotNullAttribute()>
Public Overloads Shared Function Create( _
   ByVal referenceTypeId As UANodeId, _
   ByVal targetName As UAQualifiedName _
) As UABrowsePathElement

'Usage
 
Dim referenceTypeId As UANodeId
Dim targetName As UAQualifiedName
Dim value As UABrowsePathElement
 
value = UABrowsePathElement.Create(referenceTypeId, targetName)

[NotNull()]

   UAQualifiedName targetName
)

[NotNull()]
public:
static UABrowsePathElement^ Create( 
   UANodeId^ referenceTypeId,
   UAQualifiedName^ targetName
)

Parameters

referenceTypeId

The type of reference to follow.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UANodeId 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 nodeId) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC UA node Id will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UANodeId.UANodeId Constructor(String) constructor instead.

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

targetName

The name of the target node.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.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 OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UAQualifiedName.UAQualifiedName Constructor(String) constructor instead.

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

Return Value

Returns the newly created instance.

This method never returns null (Nothing in Visual Basic).
