This is the copy constructor which creates a new AFFile object with the same values as the specified AFFile object.

Namespace: OSIsoft.AF.Asset
Assembly: OSIsoft.AFSDK (in OSIsoft.AFSDK.dll) Version: 3.2.0.7

Syntax

public AFFile(
	AFFile item
)

Public Sub New ( 
	item As AFFile
)

Dim item As AFFile

Dim instance As New AFFile(item)

public:
AFFile(
	AFFile^ item
)

new : 
        item : AFFile -> AFFile

Parameters

item: Type: OSIsoft.AF.AssetAFFile
The AFFile object to be copied and used to initialize the newly created AFFile object.

Remarks

The new AFFile will copy all the information from the specified item except for the Owner value. Therefore, this new file will not be associated with an owning object. Calling Upload Overload or Download Overload methods will buffer the Stream on the client and will not save to the server until an Owner has been assigned.
