Subscriber.Initialize Method

Article
12/03/2008

Initializes an instance of the Subscriber class. Use this method in conjunction with the parameterless constructor to enable COM interoperability.

Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices (in microsoft.sqlserver.notificationservices.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub Initialize ( _
    nsInstance As NSInstance _
)

public void Initialize (
    NSInstance nsInstance
)

public:
virtual void Initialize (
    NSInstance^ nsInstance
) sealed

public final void Initialize (
    NSInstance nsInstance
)

public final function Initialize (
    nsInstance : NSInstance
)

Parameters

nsInstance
An NSInstance that represents an instance of Notification Services.

Remarks

The Initialize method is used in conjunction with the parameterless constructor to enable COM interoperability. It must be called before any other property or method is called on a Subscriber created with the parameterless constructor.

Example

The following example shows how to create and initialize a Subscriber in unmanaged Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) code:

Dim testInstance, testSubscriber
const instanceName = "Tutorial"

' Create and initialize the NSInstance object.
set testInstance = _
    WScript.CreateObject( _
    "Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices.NSInstance")

testInstance.Initialize instanceName

' Create and initialize the Subscriber object.
set testSubscriber = _ 
    WScript.CreateObject( _ 
    "Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices.Subscriber")
testSubscriber.Initialize (testInstance)
wscript.echo "Subscriber object created."

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Microsoft Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
