IWMSPlayer.RequestedURL (Visual Basic .NET)

The RequestedURL property retrieves the URL that the player used to request a connection.

Syntax

  String = IWMSPlayer.RequestedURL

When getting the value, this property returns a String that contains the URL.

Property Value

A String that contains the URL.

If this property fails, it returns an error number.

Number Description
0x8002000B The value does not exist.

Remarks

This property is read-only. The URL that is returned by the RequestedURL property can be different than that requested by the player. For example, if the player requests mms://ServerName/movie.wmv, the RequestedURL property can return either mmsu://ServerName/movie.wmv or mmst://ServerName/movie.wmv, depending on the type of connection used by the session.

Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Private Sub GetRequestedURL()

    ' Declare variables.
    Dim Server As WMSServer
    Dim Players As IWMSPlayers
    Dim Player As IWMSPlayer
    Dim strURL As String

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

    ' Retrieve the IWMSPlayers object.
    Players = Server.Players

    ' Retrieve information about each client connection.
    For Each Player In Players
        ' Retrieve the requested URL of the client.
        strURL = Player.RequestedURL
    Next
