endpointDescriptor
The endpoint descriptor of the node.
nodeDescriptor
The node descriptor of the node.

Return Value

If successful, the method returns the actual value of OPC attribute requested.
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.

The OPC UA operation has failed. This operation exception in uniformly used to allow common handling of various kinds of errors. The System.Exception.InnerException always contains information about the actual error cause.

This is an operation error that depends on factors external to your program, and thus cannot be always avoided. Your code must handle it appropriately.

Remarks

This method also checks whether the returned value is not a reference, and is indeed of the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UANodeId type. The returned value is therefore always a valid OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UANodeId.
