Parameters

client

The client object that will perform the operation.

This is typically the EasyUAClient object.

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

endpointDescriptor

Endpoint descriptor. Identifies the OPC-UA server.

Because the UAEndpointDescriptor has implicit conversions from System.String and System.Uri, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a string (representing the endpoint URL, or a so-called OPC UA endpoint descriptor string), or a System.Uri object, in place of this parameter, and the corresponding endpoint descriptor will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the UAEndpointDescriptor.FromString or UAEndpointDescriptor.FromUri static method instead.

Also, because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Discovery.UAApplicationElement and OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Discovery.UADiscoveryElement have an implicit conversion to UAEndpointDescriptor, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Discovery.UAApplicationElement or OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Discovery.UADiscoveryElement (results from OPC UA discovery) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding endpoint descriptor will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can convert a (non-null) OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Discovery.UAApplicationElement or OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Discovery.UADiscoveryElement to UAEndpointDescriptor using the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Discovery.UAApplicationElement.ToUAEndpointDescriptor or OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Discovery.UADiscoveryElement.ToUAEndpointDescriptor method instead.

If you are using OPC Wizard (for server development), an implicit conversion from EasyUAServerCore can be used in the same way to simply pass the server object in place of this parameter, which will use its OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.EasyUAServerCore.EffectiveServerDescriptor property for the connection.

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

nodeDescriptor

Node descriptor. Identifies the node in OPC server's address space.

Because the UANodeDescriptor has implicit conversions from OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UANodeId, OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UANodeElement, OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Navigation.UABrowsePath and System.String, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UANodeId object (representing the Id of the OPC UA node), a node element object (from OPC UA browsing), OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Navigation.UABrowsePath object (representing OPC UA absolute browse path), or a string (with expanded node Id text) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding node descriptor will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the UANodeDescriptor.FromString, UANodeDescriptor.FromUABrowsePath, UANodeDescriptor.FromUANodeElement or UANodeDescriptor.FromUANodeId static method instead.

If you are using OPC Wizard (for server development), an implicit conversion from OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.NodeSpace.UAServerNode can be used in the same way to simply pass the server node in place of this parameter, which will use its OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.NodeSpace.UAServerNode.EffectiveNodeDescriptor property for the operation.

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

browseParameters

UABrowseParameters. Specifies which nodes will be returned.

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

Return Value

This is an extension method (info: C#, VB.NET). In languages that have support for extensions methods (such as C# and VB.NET), you can use the extension method as if it were a regular method on the object that is its first parameter. In other languages (such as with Python.NET), you will call the extension as a static method, and pass it the object on which it acts as its first parameter.
