OraSubscriptions Collection

Description

Adds a subscription to the OraSubscriptions collection.

Usage

orasubscriptions.Add Name, DbeventsHdl, Ctx

Arguments	Description
[in]Name	The Dbevent of interest. The appropriate event trigger and AQ queue must be set up prior to this. Name here refers to the subscription name in the form of the string 'SCHEMA.QUEUE' if the registration is for a single consumer queue and 'SCHEMA.QUEUE:CONSUMER_NAME' if the registration is for a multiconsumer queue. The Name string should be in uppercase.
[in] DbeventsHdl	The database event handler. An IDispatch interface implementing the NotifyDBEvents method which is invoked when the database event of interest is fired.
[in] Ctx	Context-specific information that the application wants passed to NotifyDbEvents when it is invoked.

Remarks

To register for subscription of a dbevent, the name identifying the subscription of interest and the dbevent handler that handles the event must be passed in when the Add method is called. The queues and event triggers necessary for supporting the database event must be set up before the subscriptions can be fired.

The dbevent handler should be an automation object that implements the method NotifyDBEvents. The NotifyDBEvents method is invoked by Oracle Objects for OLE when database events of interest are fired.

For more detailed information about setting up the queues and triggers for Oracle Database Events, refer to the Oracle Database Concepts, section on Triggers on System Events and User Events.

The syntax of the method is:
