AFAttributeTemplate.FindAttributeTemplate Method (String, AFObject)

public static AFAttributeTemplate FindAttributeTemplate(
	string path,
	AFObject relativeFrom
)

Public Shared Function FindAttributeTemplate ( 
	path As String,
	relativeFrom As AFObject
) As AFAttributeTemplate

Dim path As String
Dim relativeFrom As AFObject
Dim returnValue As AFAttributeTemplate

returnValue = AFAttributeTemplate.FindAttributeTemplate(path, 
	relativeFrom)

public:
static AFAttributeTemplate^ FindAttributeTemplate(
	String^ path, 
	AFObject^ relativeFrom
)

static member FindAttributeTemplate : 
        path : string * 
        relativeFrom : AFObject -> AFAttributeTemplate 

Parameters

path

Type: SystemString
A string containing a pathname that is relative to the specified AFAttributeTemplate, 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. If this parameter is an AFElementTemplate and a relative path is specified, then the BaseTemplate is also searched.

Return Value

A path to the AFAttributeTemplate can be obtained by calling one of the GetPath Overload methods.

This method is similar to the FindObject(String) method, but will only return an AFAttributeTemplate. When the path only indicates a path to an element template, this routine will return the DefaultAttribute of that element template (or its base template).

Note that unlike the AFAttributeTemplates collection of an AFElementTemplate, this routine will find attribute templates that are defined in base ElementTemplate(s) of the specified relativeFrom parameter.
