Category Property

Cette fonctionnalité sera supprimée dans une prochaine version de Microsoft SQL Server. Évitez d'utiliser cette fonctionnalité dans de nouveaux travaux de développement et prévoyez de modifier les applications qui utilisent actuellement cette fonctionnalité.

The Category property represents the name of a category for SQL Server Agent alerts, jobs, and operators.

Syntaxe

object
.Category [=value]

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.

  • value
    Specifies a SQL Server Agent category by name. A SQL Server Agent category name can contain a maximum of 100 characters.

Data Type

String

Modifiable

Read/write. When setting the property for an Alert, Job, or Operator object, the value must reference an existing SQL Server Agent alert, job, or operator category.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetCategory(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
HRESULT SetCategory(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewVal);

Notes

SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.

Notes

Microsoft SQL Server alert, job, and operator categories group SQL Server Agent objects. The Category property of SQL-DMO Alert, Job, and Operator objects references the applicable SQL Server Agent category.

Setting the Category property for the JobFilter object restricts listed SQL Server Agent jobs to those having the category when using the EnumJobs method of the JobServer object.
