IFPCAlerts::AddWithStorageName[C++]

FPCAlerts.AddWithStorageName [Visual Basic]

[C++]

The AddWithStorageName method creates a new FPCAlert object with a specified storage name in the collection and returns a reference to it.

HRESULT AddWithStorageName(
  BSTR Name,
  BSTR EventGUID,
  BSTR ServerName,
  BSTR StorageName,
  long AdditionalKey,
  IFPCAlert** ppNewAlert
);

Parameters

Name
[in] Required. BSTR that specifies the name of the alert. This name can be used in the Item method to retrieve the alert object.
EventGUID
Required. String-formatted globally unique identifier (GUID) of the event for which the new alert will be issued.
ServerName
[in, optional] BSTR that specifies the name of the server that will be allowed to issue the new alert. The default value is an empty string. If no server is specified, any server will be allowed to issue the alert.
StorageName
[in, optional] BSTR that specifies the storage name for uniquely identifying the new alert. The default value is an empty string.
AdditionalKey
[in, optional] A 32-bit integer that specifies an additional key (index) in the table of subevents defined for the event for which the new alert will be issued. The value set should be less than or equal to the number of subevents defined for the event. A value of 0 indicates all subevents. The default value is –1, which indicates that no additional key will be assigned to the alert.
ppNewAlert
[out] Address of an interface pointer that on return points to the new IFPCAlert interface created.

Return Values

This method can return one of the following:

Remarks

The GUID supplied in the EventGUID parameter must be formatted as a string in the form {12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789ABC}. Note the presence of the braces normally used with GUIDs.

The storage name supplied in the StorageName parameter specifies the name that will be used to identify the alert whenever its properties are written to permanent storage or a file. The storage name is used to compare the identity of objects during import and export operations. The AddWithStorageName method should be used in code that adds an alert during registration of a filter, or in any other third-party add-in that adds an alert when it is initialized.

After an alert object has been created, its storage name can be retrieved using the PersistentName property.

Parameters

Name
[in] Required. String value that specifies the name of the alert. This name can be used in the Item method to retrieve the alert object.
EventGUID
Required. String-formatted globally unique identifier (GUID) of the event for which the new alert will be issued.

The default value is –1, which indicates that no additional key will be assigned to the alert.

Return Values

This method returns a reference to an FPCAlert object if successful. Otherwise, an error is raised that can be intercepted by using an error handler.
