UAEventFilter Constructor(UAEventFilter)



OpcLabs.EasyOpcUA Assembly > OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA Namespace > UAEventFilter Class > UAEventFilter Constructor : UAEventFilter Constructor(UAEventFilter)
The event filter object to be copied from.

Because the UAEventFilter has an implicit conversion from UAAttributeFieldCollection, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use an OPC UA attribute field collection (representing the Select clauses of the event filter) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC UA event filter will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the FromUAAttributeFieldCollection static method instead.

Also, because the UAEventFilterBuilder has an implicit conversion to UAEventFilter, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a UAEventFilterBuilder in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC UA event filter will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can convert a UAEventFilterBuilder to UAEventFilter using the UAEventFilterBuilder.ToUAEventFilter static method instead.

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

Initializes a new copy of the object.

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.
