Notification Property
      
 

Description

Fast notification interface to use instead of events.

Property type

A wodVPNNotify object.  

Syntax

[Set] object.Notification [= wodVPNNotify]

The Notification Property syntax has these parts:

PartDescription
objectAn expression evaluating to an object of type wodVPNCom.
wodVPNNotifyA wodVPNNotify object.

Remarks

This method exists only in the DLL version of wodVPN.

The Notification property holds a reference to the IwodVPNNotify interface, which can be implemented by your application. When this property is set and contains such a reference, wodVPN will call your method implementations instead of firing events. More information on how this works can be found on the Fast Notifications Interface page.

For example, instead of having this in your code (VB example):

Private Sub VPN1_Connected(ByVal PeerID As String, ByVal IP As String, ByVal Port As Long)

End Sub

you will have this:

Private Sub IwodVPNNotify_Connected(ByVal Owner As WODVPNCOMLib.IwodVPNCom, ByVal PeerID As String, ByVal IP As String, ByVal Port As Long)

End Sub

Which is more or less the same, except the notification method has one more argument - Owner, which holds a reference to the wodVPN instance that called this method.

In VB, to implement IwodVPNNotify interface, you need code like this:

- at the top of the code, in the <general> section, put this:

Dim VPN1 As wodVPNCom
Implements IwodVPNNotify

- in Form_Load (or where you initialize a new instance of wodVPN) do this:

Set VPN1 = New wodTunnelCom
Set VPN1.Notification = Me
VPN1.Timeout = 30
VPN1.Start
'...

You will notice that when we declared wodVPN, we did not use the WithEvents keyword. It is not needed anymore, because events will not be fired - the Notification methods we implement will be called instead.
