DS_GetDataUpdated

HRESULT DS_GetDataUpdated (DSHandle DSHandle, BOOL *dataUpdated);

Purpose

Returns the value of a DataSocket object's DataUpdated property.

The DataUpdated property is a Boolean that indicates whether a DataSocket object has synchronized with the DataSocket data source since the last time you read the DataSocket object's data value or attributes. In the polling model, this property also indicates if there is new data in the polling queue.

The value of the DataUpdated property of a DataSocket object that is configured for Read mode is set to non-zero when you call DS_Update on the DataSocket object. The value is set to zero when you call DS_GetDataType, DS_GetDataValue, DS_GetAttrType, or DS_GetAttrValue.

Parameters

DSHandle DSHandle Pass the handle you obtained from DS_Open, DS_GetAttrHandle, or DS_CreateAttrHandle to identify the DataSocket object.
Output
