UABrowsePathElement Constructor(UABrowsePathElement)



OpcLabs.EasyOpcUA Assembly > OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Navigation Namespace > UABrowsePathElement Class > UABrowsePathElement Constructor : UABrowsePathElement Constructor(UABrowsePathElement)
The browse path element to be copied from.

Because the UABrowsePathElement has an implicit conversion from OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UAQualifiedName, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UAQualifiedName (containing a target qualified name, which becomes the "any hierarchical" forward reference) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC UA browse path element will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the FromUAQualifiedName static method instead.

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

Initializes a new instance as a copy of an existing browse path element object.
