OpcLabs.EasyOpcUA Assembly > OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.PubSub Namespace > UAPubSubConnectionDescriptor Class : TransportProfileUriString Property
Indicates the transport protocol mapping and the message mapping used. A URI string.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
<NotNullAttribute()>
<TypeConverterAttribute(OpcLabs.BaseLib.ComponentModel.Internal.ValuesStandardPropertyConverter)>
Public Property TransportProfileUriString As String
 
'Usage
 
Dim instance As UAPubSubConnectionDescriptor
Dim value As String
 
instance.TransportProfileUriString = value
 
value = instance.TransportProfileUriString

Property Value

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

The default value of this property is "" (String.Empty).

Remarks

Well-known transport profile URI strings are defined in the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.PubSub.Engine.UAPubSubTransportProfileUriStrings class.

Example
// This example shows how to subscribe to all dataset messages on an OPC-UA PubSub connection with MQTT JSON mapping using
// TCP.
//
// The following package needs to be referenced in your project (or otherwise made available) for the MQTT transport to 
// work.
// - OpcLabs.MqttNet
// Refer to the documentation for more information.
