Parameters

path

Type: SystemString
A string containing a pathname that is relative to the specified object, or a fully qualified path. See Path Syntax for more information.

relativeFrom

Type: OSIsoft.AFAFObject
Specifies the object that the path was retrieved from. The query date of this object will be used where applicable.

Return Value

A path to an object is created by the one of the AFObjectGetPath methods and can be restored from a string using this method. A path, such as "\\MySystem\MyDatabase\MyElement|Attribute1", can be used to reference any object derived from AFObject. See Path Syntax for a complete description of the path syntax.

Notes to Callers
The ShowExcludedAttributes setting will determine if excluded attributes are returned when finding attributes by path.
