Usage

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overridable Sub Init ( _
    <InAttribute> ApplicationName As String _
) Implements IWHSInfo2.Init

public virtual void IWHSInfo2.Init (
    [InAttribute] string ApplicationName

virtual void Init (
    [InAttribute] String^ ApplicationName
) = IWHSInfo2::Init

Parameters

  • ApplicationName
    A string that contains the unique identifier for your application.

Remarks

Identify your application to the Windows Home Server notification infrastructure using the Init method. When you call this method, the notification infrastructure associates your application with the unique identifier that you passed in with the Init method call.

Important

The Windows Home Server notification infrastructure does not work correctly when multiple instances of an application are running on the same computer using the same application name. To run multiple instances of your application on the same computer, you must provide a unique identifier for each instance. You can use a GUID as a unique identifier.
