Get Node Description and Datatype

[bibhudatta-sahu]

Hello Everyone,
I would like to know how to get description and datatype of a node while browsing address space. Could you please help me on it.

Thanks,
Bibhudatta

This information isn’t available using the Browse service alone.

Typically a client would look at the NodeClass of the Nodes it browsed and then use the Read service to get attributes like Description, DataType, ValueRank, and ArrayDimensions for Variable Nodes.

Thank you for the solution. Could you please guide by providing small sample code to refer.

Thanks @kevinherron I got the solution after analyzing the MILO sdk code. 👍
