Syntax

C#
Visual Basic
Objective-C
Java
C++

object GetItemValues( 
   object itemNames,
   bool onlyChanges,
   int contextCoupon
)

'Declaration

Function GetItemValues( _
   ByVal itemNames As Object, _
   ByVal onlyChanges As Boolean, _
   ByVal contextCoupon As Integer _
) As Object

'Usage

Dim instance As IContextData
Dim itemNames As Object
Dim onlyChanges As Boolean
Dim contextCoupon As Integer
Dim value As Object
 
value = instance.GetItemValues(itemNames, onlyChanges, contextCoupon)

Object^ GetItemValues( 
   Object^ itemNames,
   bool onlyChanges,
   int contextCoupon
)

Parameters

itemNames: The name of the context item values to get.
onlyChanges: Enables a participant to instruct the context manager to filter which items it returns no matter what names were specified. When the value of onlyChanges is true, then the items that are returned are limited to only the context subjects whose items were set by the most recently committed context change transaction, or by the transaction in progress, as indicated by the value of contextCoupon.
contextCoupon: The context coupon.

Return Value

A string array containing the common subject context item values.

Remarks

When the value of the input contextCoupon denotes the most recently committed transaction, the item values that are returned represent the state of the common context as it existed when the transaction was completed. When the value of the input contextCoupon denotes the transaction currently in progress, the item values that are returned represent the state of the common context as it has been established so far by the transaction
