TimeZoneEnumeration.GetEnumerator Method

Article
12/03/2008

Gets an IEnumerator interface that allows you to iterate through the collection of time zones represented by the TimeZoneEnumeration object.

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

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function GetEnumerator As IEnumerator

public IEnumerator GetEnumerator ()

public:
virtual IEnumerator^ GetEnumerator () sealed

public final IEnumerator GetEnumerator ()

public final function GetEnumerator () : IEnumerator

Return Value

An IEnumerator interface for the TimeZoneEnumeration object.

Remarks

Use this method to return an IEnumerator interface that allows you to iterate through the time zones in a TimeZoneEnumeration. An initialized TimeZoneEnumeration represents the collection of time zones in a specified Notification Services instance.

Example

The following examples show how to use a TimeZoneEnumeration to iterate through a set of time zones. The GetEnumerator method makes the For Each and foreach statements possible:

Dim instanceName As String = "Tutorial"

' Create the NSInstance object.
Dim testInstance As NSInstance = _
    New NSInstance(instanceName)

' Create the TimeZoneEnumeration.
Dim testTimeZoneEnumeration As TimeZoneEnumeration = _
    New TimeZoneEnumeration(testInstance, _
    System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Parent.Name)

' Step through the enumeration, populating
' the drop-down list as you go. Note that the TimeZone
' reference must include the namespace, because there is
' an identically named class in the System namespace.
Dim thisTimeZone As _
    Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices.TimeZone
For Each thisTimeZone In testTimeZoneEnumeration
    Console.WriteLine(thisTimeZone.TimeZoneName)
Next

string instanceName = "Tutorial";

// Create the NSInstance object.
NSInstance testInstance = new NSInstance(instanceName);

// Create the TimeZoneEnumeration.
TimeZoneEnumeration testTimeZoneEnumeration =
    new TimeZoneEnumeration(testInstance,
    System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Parent.Name);

// Step through the enumeration, populating
// the drop-down list as you go. Note that the TimeZone
// reference must include the namespace, because there is
// an identically named class in the System namespace.
foreach(Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices.TimeZone
thisTimeZone in testTimeZoneEnumeration)
{
    Console.WriteLine(thisTimeZone.TimeZoneName);
}
