Event Data

The event handler receives an argument of type EasyUADataChangeNotificationEventArgs containing data related to this event. The following EasyUADataChangeNotificationEventArgs properties provide information specific to this event.

PropertyDescription
ArgumentsHolds arguments that were used to subscribe to a monitored item in an OPC-UA server.  
AttributeDataAttribute data: the value of an attribute, together with status code and timestamps.  
DiagnosticsDiagnostics information (such as warnings) assembled during the operation. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
DiagnosticsCountCount of diagnostic information elements assembled during the operation. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
DiagnosticsSummaryTextual summary of diagnostics information, one message per line. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
ErrorIdGets or sets the error ID of the error. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
ErrorMessageGets or sets a message that describes the current exception. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
ErrorMessageBriefThe first line of the error message. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
ExceptionGets the current exception. Contains null reference when no exception. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
NormalizedDiagnosticsA normalized OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs.Diagnostics collection. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
NormalizedExceptionA normalized OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs.Exception object, or null if there was no error. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
StatusInfoStatus information corresponding to the contents of the event arguments.  
SucceededGets indication whether the operation has succeeded. (Inherited from OpcLabs.BaseLib.OperationModel.OperationEventArgs)
