WriteValueAction<TValue>(UADataVariable,UANodeId,Action<TValue>) Method



OpcLabs.ServerOpcUA Assembly > OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.NodeSpace Namespace > UADataVariableExtension Class > WriteValueAction Method : WriteValueAction<TValue>(UADataVariable,UANodeId,Action<TValue>) Method
The data variable that will be modified and returned.

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

Specifies the OPC UA data type of the variable value. For standard data types, see OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.Standard.UADataTypeIds.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UANodeId 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 nodeId) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC UA node Id 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.UANodeId.UANodeId Constructor(String) constructor instead.

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

The write value action, i.e. the action that accepts the value to be written and performs the write operation.

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

Makes data variable that consumes the attribute data using the write value action. Specify the data type Id.

Parameters

dataVariable
The data variable that will be modified and returned.

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

dataTypeId
Specifies the OPC UA data type of the variable value. For standard data types, see OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.Standard.UADataTypeIds.

Because the OpcLabs.EasyOpc.UA.AddressSpace.UANodeId 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 nodeId) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding OPC UA node Id 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.UANodeId.UANodeId Constructor(String) constructor instead.

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

writeValueAction
The write value action, i.e. the action that accepts the value to be written and performs the write operation.

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

Type Parameters

TValue

Return Value

Returns the dataVariable, internally modified as defined by the method.

This method never returns 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.

Remarks

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.

Requirements

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