SalString FindAttribute( SalString sName, SalString sDefault )
The FindAttribute gets the value of an attribute in a message.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| SalString sName | Name of the attribute to get value for. This name should always be in uppercase. |
| SalString sDefault | Value to return in the case when the attribute does not exist in the message. |
The return value is the value of the attribute, or sDefault if the attribute did not exist in the message.
FindAttribute does not require the attribute to exist in the message. If the attribute does not exist, the specified default value is returned.
To retrieve attribute values requiring the attribute to exist in the message, applications should use the GetAttribute method.
