Remarks

In order to communicate with an instance of QWS, you will need to specify which session you want to exchange information with. Some methods take a session identifier to specify the instance. Others require that your application is already connected to an instance, and will use that connected instance. The Connect method allows you to connect your application to a QWS session.

Connect will accept objects of type String, Int32, UInt32, Int16, Int32, UInt16, UInt32 and Char

Examples

CopyC#

Connect("A");
    // or
Connect('a');
    // or
Connect(65);
    // or
byte iid = 65;
Connect(iid);
