WMRMMetering.GetMeteringResponse

The GetMeteringResponse method generates a metering response for the client.

Syntax

  String = WMRMMetering.GetMeteringResponse

Parameters

This method takes no parameters.

Return Values

If the method succeeds, it returns a String containing a metering response. If it fails, it returns a number in the error object.

Remarks

The metering response confirms that the metering data was successfully collected, and indicates to the client which items should be cleared and reset in the data store.
