To use Broker ActiveX Control with Visual Studio .NET
Add Broker ActiveX Control to the Project references.
Add a Broker Control variable
BrokerLib.BrokerClass().
While you are using Broker ActiveX Control, the properties and methods of the object are listed in the member list.
Important:
To use custom
data types you have to access the items through a temporary
object.
' create new ActiveX Control
Dim broker As New BrokerLib.BrokerClass()
Dim TransactionObject As Object
Dim SomeObject As Object
Dim CTObject As Object
' load tor object
TransactionObject = broker.CreateTransObject("Broker.tor")
' call a method from the tor object
SomeObject = TransactionObject.GetData("Person1")
'
reference a temporary object to the Customer Data type
CTObject = SomeObject.CustData
' access to the items of the Customer Data
Console.WriteLine("Name :" & CTObject.Name)
Console.WriteLine("Address :" & CTObject.Address)
