IWMSPublishingPointCurrentCounters.ConnectedPlayers (Visual Basic .NET)

The ConnectedPlayers property retrieves the total number of players connected directly to the publishing point.

Syntax

  Integer = IWMSPublishingPointCurrentCounters.ConnectedPlayers

Property Value

Integer containing the total number of connected players.

Remarks

This property is read-only. This count of players represents each client's session, not its physical connection to the server. When a client is disconnected from the server unexpectedly, the client will attempt to reconnect to the server. When this occurs, the server will not decrement this counter until a player's session times out.

Example Code

Imports Microsoft.WindowsMediaServices.Interop
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Private Sub GetConnectionCount()

    ' Declare variables.
    Dim Server As WMSServer
    Dim PubPoints As IWMSPublishingPoints
    Dim PubPoint As IWMSPublishingPoint
    Dim CurrentCounters As IWMSPublishingPointCurrentCounters
    Dim iValue As Integer

Try
    ' Create the WMSServer object.
    Server = New WMSServer()

    ' Retrieve the IWMSPublishingPoints object.
    PubPoints = Server.PublishingPoints

    ' Retrieve information about each publishing point.
    For Each PubPoint In PubPoints

        ' Retrieve a pointer to a list of current statistics
        ' for the publishing point.
        CurrentCounters = PubPoint.CurrentCounters

        ' Retrieve the current number of connected players.
        iValue = CurrentCounters.ConnectedPlayers

    Next

Catch excCom As COMException
    ' TODO: Handle COM exceptions.
Catch exc As Exception
    ' TODO: Handle errors.
Finally
    ' TODO: Clean-up code goes here.
End Try

End Sub
