To More Specific Class
Typecasts a class object or class reference to a class below the object or reference in the inheritance hierarchy.
You can use this node to typecast any object or reference in a class hierarchy, including VI Server references, .NET/ActiveX references, and classes you create.


reference
Class reference or class object you want to typecast to a target class within the inheritance hierarchy.

target class
Class you want reference to match.

error in
Error conditions that occur before this node runs.
The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.
Standard Error Behavior
Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.
| error in does not contain an error | error in contains an error |
|---|---|
| If no error occurred before the node runs, the node begins execution normally.
If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out. | If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out. |
Default: No error

specific class reference
Class reference or class object typecast to the target class.

error out
Error information.
The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.
