GetVar Method (IEdmEnumeratorVariable5)

Obsolete. Superseded by IEdmEnumeratorVariable10::GetVar2.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function GetVar( _
   ByVal bsVarName As System.String, _
   ByVal bsCfgName As System.String, _
   ByRef poRetValue As System.Object _
) As System.Boolean
C# 
System.bool GetVar( 
   System.string bsVarName,
   System.string bsCfgName,
   out System.object poRetValue
)
C++/CLI 
System.bool GetVar( 
&   System.String^ bsVarName,
&   System.String^ bsCfgName,
&   [Out] System.Object^ poRetValue
) 

Parameters

bsVarName
Name of variable to read
bsCfgName
Name of configuration or layout from which to get the variable value; empty string for folders and file types that do not support configurations (see Remarks)
poRetValue
Variable value; data type as specified in IEdmVariable5::VariableType (see Remarks)

Return Value

True if the variable is found, false if not

Remarks

To specify bsCfgName:

  • Call IEdmFile5::GetConfigurations to get the available configuration names for this file.
  • If this method is used in your add-in's implementation of IEdmAddIn5::OnCmd, then a list of configuration names for the data card is returned in ppoData that can be cast to EdmCmdData. EdmCmdData.mpoExtra contains an IEdmStrLst5 of configuration names.

C++ users must initialize the VARIANT struct of poRetValue with a call to VariantInit before calling this method. They also must free the contents of the struct with a call to VariantClear. 

Return codes:

  • S_OK: The method successfully executed.
  • S_FALSE: The variable was not found.
