Returns several summaries for a single PIPoint over a single time range.
Namespace: OSIsoft.AF.PI
Assembly: OSIsoft.AFSDK (in OSIsoft.AFSDK.dll) Version: 3.1.1.1182
Syntax
public Task<IDictionary<AFSummaryTypes, AFValue>> SummaryAsync( AFTimeRange timeRange, AFSummaryTypes summaryType, AFCalculationBasis calculationBasis, AFTimestampCalculation timeType, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default )
Public Function SummaryAsync ( timeRange As AFTimeRange, summaryType As AFSummaryTypes, calculationBasis As AFCalculationBasis, timeType As AFTimestampCalculation, Optional cancellationToken As CancellationToken = Nothing ) As Task(Of IDictionary(Of AFSummaryTypes, AFValue)) Dim instance As PIPoint Dim timeRange As AFTimeRange Dim summaryType As AFSummaryTypes Dim calculationBasis As AFCalculationBasis Dim timeType As AFTimestampCalculation Dim cancellationToken As CancellationToken Dim returnValue As Task(Of IDictionary(Of AFSummaryTypes, AFValue)) returnValue = instance.SummaryAsync(timeRange, summaryType, calculationBasis, timeType, cancellationToken)
public: Task<IDictionary<AFSummaryTypes, AFValue^>^>^ SummaryAsync( AFTimeRange timeRange, AFSummaryTypes summaryType, AFCalculationBasis calculationBasis, AFTimestampCalculation timeType, CancellationToken cancellationToken = CancellationToken() )
member SummaryAsync : timeRange : AFTimeRange * summaryType : AFSummaryTypes * calculationBasis : AFCalculationBasis * timeType : AFTimestampCalculation * ?cancellationToken : CancellationToken (* Defaults: let _cancellationToken = defaultArg cancellationToken new CancellationToken() *) -> Task<IDictionary<AFSummaryTypes, AFValue>>
Parameters
- timeRange
- Type: OSIsoft.AF.TimeAFTimeRange
The time range over which to compute the summary. - summaryType
- Type: OSIsoft.AF.DataAFSummaryTypes
A flag which specifies one or more summaries to compute over the time range. - calculationBasis
- Type: OSIsoft.AF.DataAFCalculationBasis
Specifies the method of evaluating the data over the time range. - timeType
- Type: OSIsoft.AF.DataAFTimestampCalculation
A flag indicating what how to calculate a time stamp for each interval. - cancellationToken (Optional)
- Type: System.ThreadingCancellationToken
A cancellation token used to abort processing before completion. Passing the default CancellationToken.None will run to completion or until the PIConnectionInfo.OperationTimeOut period elapses.
Return Value
Type: TaskIDictionaryAFSummaryTypes, AFValueReturns a task whose result is a dictionary of AFValue, indexed by the specific AFSummaryTypes.
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| AggregateException | Asynchronous methods throw AggregateException on failure which will contain one or more exceptions containing the failure. |
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | The summaryType cannot be None. |
| PIException | Error returned by the PI Data Archive. |
Remarks
| Impersonation of AF SDK asynchronous calls relies on the .NET framework's built-in support for flowing execution context across asynchronous points. When making these calls while impersonating, the thread or runtime must be configured to propagate the impersonation across these asynchronous points (see the SecurityContext documentation for details). |
| This call might use a background task to complete some of its work. See the Threading Overview for some matters to consider when execution transitions to another thread. |
