'Declaration
Public Function GetFieldOrdinal ( _
fieldName As String _
) As Integer
public int GetFieldOrdinal (

String^ fieldName
) sealed
public final int GetFieldOrdinal (
String fieldName

fieldName : String
) : int
Parameters
- fieldName
The name of the subscription field for which you want the ordinal returned.
Return Value
An integer representing the zero-based field ordinal.
Example
The following examples show how to use the GetFieldOrdinal method to get the ordinal of a subscription field by providing the field name:
Dim instanceName As String = "Tutorial"
Dim applicationName As String = "Weather"
Dim subscriptionClassName As String = "WeatherCity"
Dim fieldName As String = "City"
Dim ordinal As Integer = 2
' Create the NSInstance object.
Dim testInstance As New NSInstance(instanceName)
' Create the NSApplication object.
Dim testApplication As New NSApplication( _
testInstance, applicationName)
' Create the Subscription object.
Dim testSubscription As New Subscription( _
testApplication, subscriptionClassName)
' Use the GetFieldName method to return a field name
Console.WriteLine("Name of field " + ordinal.ToString() + _
": " + testSubscription.GetFieldName(ordinal))
' Use the GetFieldOrdinal to return a field ordinal
Console.WriteLine("Ordinal for the " + fieldName + _
" field: " + testSubscription.GetFieldOrdinal(fieldName))
string instanceName = "Tutorial";
string applicationName= "Weather";
string subscriptionClassName= "WeatherCity";
string fieldName = "City";
int ordinal = 2;
// Create the NSInstance object.
NSInstance testInstance = new NSInstance(instanceName);
// Create the NSApplication object.
NSApplication testApplication =
new NSApplication(testInstance, applicationName);
// Create the Subscription object.
Subscription testSubscription =
new Subscription(testApplication, subscriptionClassName);
// Use the GetFieldName method to return a field name
Console.WriteLine("Name of field " + ordinal.ToString() + ": " +
testSubscription.GetFieldName(ordinal));
// Use the GetFieldOrdinal to return a field ordinal
Console.WriteLine("Ordinal for the " + fieldName + " field: " +
testSubscription.GetFieldOrdinal(fieldName));
