FindDataTypeSystem Method (_EasyUAClientComplexData)



OpcLabs.EasyOpcUA Assembly > OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Plugins.ComplexData.ComTypes Namespace > _EasyUAClientComplexData Interface : FindDataTypeSystem Method
The encoding name.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UAQualifiedName has an implicit conversion from System.String, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a string (representing the expanded text of the qualified name) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC UA qualified name will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UAQualifiedName.UAQualifiedName Constructor(String) constructor instead.

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

Finds the data type system that handles the encoding given by its encoding name.

Parameters

encodingName
The encoding name.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UAQualifiedName has an implicit conversion from System.String, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a string (representing the expanded text of the qualified name) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC UA qualified name will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UAQualifiedName.UAQualifiedName Constructor(String) constructor instead.

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

Return Value

A OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.DataTypeModel.IUADataTypeSystem that handles the given encodingName, or a null reference if no such data type system is found.

This method can return null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

The standard browse names to be used with encodingName are:

You can obtain the client complex data interface (OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Plugins.ComplexData.IEasyUAClientComplexData) by calling the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.EasyUAClientCore.GetService method on the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.EasyUAClientCore object, passing it the type of OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.Plugins.ComplexData.IEasyUAClientComplexData as the argument.

This member or type is for use from COM. It is not meant to be used from .NET or Python. Refer to the corresponding .NET member or type instead, if you are developing in .NET or Python.

Requirements

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