Updating a Subscriber Device

Use the Update method of the SubscriberDevice class to modify existing subscriber device data in the Notification Services instance database. The examples below show how to update a subscriber device using managed code and using Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) to illustrate COM interop.

Managed Code Example

The following code example shows how to use a SubscriberDevice object in managed code to update a subscriber device.

string instanceName = "Tutorial";

// Create the NSInstance object.
NSInstance testInstance = new NSInstance(instanceName);

// Create the SubscriberDevice object.
SubscriberDevice testSubscriberDevice =
    new SubscriberDevice(testInstance);

// Set the subscriber ID and device name
// so that the correct record is updated.
testSubscriberDevice.SubscriberId = "TestUser1";
testSubscriberDevice.DeviceName = "Work e-mail";

// Modify the subscriber device properties 
// and update the record.
testSubscriberDevice.DeviceAddress = "stephanieb@adventure-works.com";
testSubscriberDevice.DeviceTypeName = "e-mail";
testSubscriberDevice.DeliveryChannelName = "FileChannel";
testSubscriberDevice.Update();

COM Interop Example

The following VBScript example shows how to use a SubscriberDevice object in unmanaged code to update a subscriber device:

Dim testInstance, testSubscriberDevice
const instanceName = "Tutorial"

' Create the NSInstance object.
set testInstance = _
    WScript.CreateObject( _
    "Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices.NSInstance")
testInstance.Initialize instanceName

' Create the SubscriberDevice object.
set testSubscriberDevice = _
    WScript.CreateObject( _
    "Microsoft.SqlServer.NotificationServices.SubscriberDevice")
testSubscriberDevice.Initialize (testInstance)

' Set the subscriber ID and device name
' so that the correct record is updated.
testSubscriberDevice.SubscriberId = "TestUser2"
testSubscriberDevice.DeviceName = "Work e-mail"

' Modify the subscriber device properties 
' and update the record.
testSubscriberDevice.DeviceAddress = "davidb@adventure-works.com"
testSubscriberDevice.DeviceTypeName = "e-mail"
testSubscriberDevice.DeliveryChannelName = "FileChannel"
testSubscriberDevice.Update()

wscript.echo "Subscriber device updated."
