InformationModel.MakeObject<T>(browseName, objectTypeId)

Creates a project object of the type indicated in the second argument and returns a C# object of the specified <T> type.

Tip: At design time, the API functions only if the specified type is a predefined type (contained in the FTOptix modules).

static T MakeObject<T>(QualifiedName browseName, NodeId objectTypeId);

Arguments

T: An IUAObject C# class that corresponds to the class of the C# object to return.
browseName (QualifiedName): The BrowseName of the new object.
objectTypeId (NodeId): ANodeID of the type from which the new object is derived.

Returns

T: A C# object that corresponds to the project object created.

Example

The following example shows an API that creates a NewMotor object of the Motor type, searched with the Find method, and then specified using NodeID that returns a Motor C# object:

var motortype = Project.Current.Find("Motor");
var myObj = InformationModel.MakeObject<Motor>("NewMotor", motortype.NodeId);
Owner.Add(myObj);
