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.
Class reference or class object you want to typecast to a target class within the inheritance hierarchy.
Class you want reference to match.
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.
Default: No error
Class reference or class object typecast to the target class.
Error information.
The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

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.
Typecasting changes the data type of an input to that of the class you specify. This allows you to access the object or reference you input as if it is the target class you specify.
