Function GetVar( _
   ByVal bsVarName As System.String, _
   ByVal bsCfgName As System.String, _
   ByRef poRetValue As System.Object _
) As System.Boolean

System.bool GetVar( 
   System.string bsVarName,
   System.string bsCfgName,
   out System.object poRetValue
)

System.bool GetVar( 
&   System.String^ bsVarName,
&   System.String^ bsCfgName,
&   [Out] System.Object^ poRetValue
) 

Parameters

bsVarName

Name of variable to read

bsCfgName

Name of configuration or layout from which to get the variable value; empty string for folders and file types that do not support configurations (see Remarks)

poRetValue

Variable value; data type as specified in IEdmVariable5::VariableType (see Remarks)

Return Value

To specify bsCfgName:

• Call IEdmFile5::GetConfigurations to get the available configuration names for this file.
• If this method is used in your add-in's implementation of IEdmAddIn5::OnCmd, then a list of configuration names for the data card is returned in ppoData that can be cast to EdmCmdData. EdmCmdData.mpoExtra contains an IEdmStrLst5 of configuration names.

C++ users must initialize the VARIANT struct of poRetValue with a call to VariantInit before calling this method. They also must free the contents of the struct with a call to VariantClear. 

Return codes:

• S_OK: The method successfully executed.
• S_FALSE: The variable was not found.
