OPC Historian .NET Server Toolkit Reference
ReadAtTime(Int32,DateTime[],Int32[],Int32,Int32[]) Method

An identifier created by the client and passed to the server in this call. The server shall return this identifier along with the results of this call.
The timestamps for the requested data.
The list of server item handles for the items to be read.
Place to return a Server generated ID to be used in case the operation needs to be canceled.
Array of HRESULTs indicating whether the corresponding server handle was valid.
Asynchronous ReadAtTime.
This method reads the values and qualities from the history database for the specified timestamps for one or more items. This method is intended to provide values to correlate with other values with a known timestamp. For example, the values of sensors when lab samples were collected.
The results are returned via the client's IOPCHDA_DataCallback::OnReadComplete method.

The order of the values and qualities returned shall match the order of the time stamps supplied in the request. When no value exists for a specified timestamp, a value shall be interpolated from the surrounding values to represent the value at the specified timestamp. The interpolation will follow the same rules as the standard Intpolated aggregate as outlined in Section 2.9 of the OPC HDA specification. The OPCHDA_ITEM structure will return OPCHDA_NOAGGREGATE in the aggregate field. If a value is found for the specified timestamp, the server will set the OPCHDA_RAW bit in the quality. If the value is interpolated from the surrounding values, the server will set the OPCHDA_INTERPOLATED bit in the quality.
Syntax
'Usage
 
Dim instance As IAppPlugin
Dim transactionID As Integer
Dim timeStamps() As Date
Dim serverHandles() As Integer
Dim cancelID As Integer
Dim errors As Integer()
Dim value As Integer
 
value = instance.ReadAtTime(transactionID, timeStamps, serverHandles, cancelID, errors)
int ReadAtTime( 
   int transactionID,
   DateTime[] timeStamps,
   int[] serverHandles,
   out int cancelID,
   out int[] errors
)

Parameters

transactionID
An identifier created by the client and passed to the server in this call. The server shall return this identifier along with the results of this call.
timeStamps
The timestamps for the requested data.
serverHandles
The list of server item handles for the items to be read.
cancelID
Place to return a Server generated ID to be used in case the operation needs to be canceled.
errors
Array of HRESULTs indicating whether the corresponding server handle was valid.

Return Value

HRESULTS success/error code.
Remarks
The requests are queued and handled by a thread. The sample implementation has on handling thread. To improve performance it may be necessary in some servers to have multiple handling threads.
Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
