IWMSServerCurrentCounters.AllCounters (Visual Basic .NET)

The AllCounters property retrieves an array that contains all of the counters supported by the object.

Variant = IWMSServerCurrentCounters.AllCounters

Property Value

An array of Variant types containing the counters.

Remarks

This property is read-only. The array is two-dimensional. The first element in each row contains the name of the counter property, and the second element in each row contains the value. The AllCounters property is used to speed up counter retrieval during remote administration, by making one call instead of multiple calls to retrieve multiple counter properties.

The properties returned by the array are shown in the following table.

CacheDownloads	Retrieves the number of streams being sent to a cache.
ConnectedPlayers	Retrieves the number of players connected to the server.
ConnectionQueue	Retrieves the current number of players in the queue to connect to the server.
