IWMPMedia3.getAttributeCountByType (VB and C#)

The getAttributeCountByType method returns the number of attributes associated with the specified attribute type.

[Visual Basic]
Function getAttributeCountByType(
  bstrType As String,
  bstrLanguage As String
) As Integer

[C#]
int getAttributeCountByType (
  string bstrType,
  string bstrLanguage)
;

Parameters

bstrType

A System.String that is the attribute type.

bstrLanguage

A System.String that is the language. If the value is set to null or a zero-length string (""), the current locale string is used. Otherwise, the value must be a valid RFC 1766 language string such as "en-us".

Return Value

A System.Int32 that is the count of attributes that are associated with the type.

Remarks

This method is used to discover the number of attributes corresponding to a particular attribute name for a given media item. Index numbers can then be passed to the getItemInfoByType method. This is useful, for example, when a media item has been categorized under multiple genres.

Before calling this method, you must have read access to the library. For more information, see Library Access.
