EventFilter:
"The EventFilter provides for the filtering and content selection of Event Subscriptions. If an Event Notification conforms to the filter defined by the where parameter of the EventFilter, then the Notification is sent to the Client. Each Event Notification shall include the fields defined by the selectClauses parameter of the EventFilter."
In order to obtain or modify these parameters, access the UAMonitoringParameters.EventFilter property of OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.OperationModel.UAMonitoredItemArguments.MonitoringParameters.
There are implicit conversions to this type from:
The UAEventFilter object (used for specifying the event filters) is probably the most complicated part of the OPC UA Alarms & Condition features. It has two main parts: Select clauses (contained in the SelectClauses property, of UAAttributeFieldCollection type), and a Where clause (contained in the WhereClause property, of UAContentFilterElement type). The Select clauses contain a collection of the attribute fields to return with each event in a notification. The Where clause contains the criteria limiting the notifications.
In order to make the creation of some event filters appear shorter in the code, a UAEventFilterBuilder class is provided. Instances of this builder can be implicitly converted to the event filter itself (hence you can create just the UAEventFilterBuilder objects, and use them at all places where the UAEventFilter object is expected). The builder contains a Where clause, and is a collection of Select clauses. You can therefore use the C# collection initializer to specify the Select clauses.
In COM (tools like VB6, Delphi etc.), creation of OPC UA Event Filters requires longer code. For related information, see http://kb.opclabs.com/Creating_an_OPC_UA_event_filter_in_COM .
