NonHostedEventProvider Class

Represents a non-hosted event provider for a Notification Services application.

Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Nmo
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo (in microsoft.sqlserver.smo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class NonHostedEventProvider
    Inherits NamedSmoObject
public sealed class NonHostedEventProvider : NamedSmoObject
public ref class NonHostedEventProvider sealed : public NamedSmoObject
public final class NonHostedEventProvider extends NamedSmoObject
public final class NonHostedEventProvider extends NamedSmoObject

Remarks

Non-hosted event providers are external applications that submit event data to a Notification Services application using the EventCollector class, EventLoader class or event-collection stored procedures.

Notification Services does not control or interact with the non-hosted event providers. Therefore, you only provide the event provider name in the application definition so that you can later track and troubleshoot events submitted by the event provider.

Using the methods of this class, you can enable and disable non-hosted event providers to allow them to submit events or prevent them from submitting events.

Example

The following examples show how to define a non-hosted event provider and add it to the collection of non-hosted event providers for the application:

// Define non-hosted event provider
NonHostedEventProvider nhep = 
    new NonHostedEventProvider(myApplication, "MyNonHostedEP");
myApplication.NonHostedEventProviders.Add(nhep);
' Define non-hosted event provider
Dim nhep As NonHostedEventProvider = _
    New NonHostedEventProvider(myApplication, "MyNonHostedEP")
myApplication.NonHostedEventProviders.Add(nhep)
