DAPropertyArguments Constructor(String,String,String,DAPropertyId)



OpcLabs.EasyOpcClassicCore Assembly > OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.OperationModel Namespace > DAPropertyArguments Class > DAPropertyArguments Constructor : DAPropertyArguments Constructor(String,String,String,DAPropertyId)
Name of the machine. Determines the computer on which the OPC server is located. It may be an empty string, in which case the OPC server is assumed to exist on the local computer or at the computer specified for it by DCOM configuration.

The value represents a UNC or DNS computer name. Any string can be passed to this parameter (i.e. will not cause System.ArgumentException), but not all values make sense and will work when an operation using them is attempted. IPv6 addresses are normally enclosed between '[' and ']'.

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

Contains ProgID of the OPC server.

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

Contains OPC item identifier.

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

Contains Id of the OPC property.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAPropertyId has an implicit conversion from System.Int64 and OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAPropertyIds, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a long integer (representing the numerical value of the access rights), or an element of the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAPropertyIds enumeration in place of this parameter, and the corresponding Property Id specification will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the DAPropertyId Constructor(Int64) or DAPropertyId Constructor(DAPropertyIds) constructor instead.

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

Initializes a new instance of the class, with the OPC server specified by machine name and server class, the OPC item specified by its ItemId, and the OPC property specified by its property Id.

Parameters

machineName
Name of the machine. Determines the computer on which the OPC server is located. It may be an empty string, in which case the OPC server is assumed to exist on the local computer or at the computer specified for it by DCOM configuration.

The value represents a UNC or DNS computer name. Any string can be passed to this parameter (i.e. will not cause System.ArgumentException), but not all values make sense and will work when an operation using them is attempted. IPv6 addresses are normally enclosed between '[' and ']'.

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

serverClass
Contains ProgID of the OPC server.

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

itemId
Contains OPC item identifier.

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

propertyId
Contains Id of the OPC property.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAPropertyId has an implicit conversion from System.Int64 and OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAPropertyIds, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a long integer (representing the numerical value of the access rights), or an element of the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.DataAccess.DAPropertyIds enumeration in place of this parameter, and the corresponding Property Id specification will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the DAPropertyId Constructor(Int64) or DAPropertyId Constructor(DAPropertyIds) constructor instead.

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

Exceptions
ExceptionDescription

A null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is passed to a method that does not accept it as a valid argument.

This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.

Requirements

Target Platforms: .NET Framework: Windows 10 (selected versions), Windows 11 (selected versions), Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2022; .NET: Linux, macOS, Microsoft Windows
