IWMSAdminNetworkDataSourcePlugin.SupportedProtocolName (Visual Basic .NET)

The SupportedProtocolName property retrieves the name of a specific protocol from a list of supported protocols.

Syntax

  String = AdminNetworkDataSourcePlugin.SupportedProtocolName(dwProtocolNum)

Parameters

dwProtocolNum

[in] Integer containing the index.

Property Value

A String containing the protocol name.

If this property fails, it throws an exception.

Remarks

If you specify 0 for the dwProtocolNum parameter, the server returns HTTP if it is supported. If you specify 0 for the dwProtocolNum parameter, and HTTP is not supported but RTSP is, the server returns RTSP. If you specify 1 for the dwProtocolNum parameter, and RTSP is supported, the server returns RTSP. The server does not return HTTP if you specify 1 for the dwProtocolNum parameter.

Imports Microsoft.WindowsMediaServices.Interop
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Private Sub GetProtocolName()

    ' Declare variables.
    Dim Server As WMSServer
    Dim Plugin As IWMSPlugin
    Dim AdminNetDataSrc As IWMSAdminNetworkDataSourcePlugin
    Dim strProtocol As String

Try
    ' Create the WMSServer object.
    Server = New WMSServer()

    ' Retrieve the plug-in to be configured.
    Plugin = Server.DataSources.Item("WMS Network Data Source")

    ' Retrieve the custom interface of the plug-in.
    AdminNetDataSrc = Plugin.CustomInterface

    ' Retrieve the name of the first supported protocol.
    strProtocol = AdminNetDataSrc.SupportedProtocolName(0)

Catch excCom As COMException
