MetaDataOnly Method

Use this property to specify that the current session is "metadata only" or tofind out if the current session is a metadata-only session.

Syntax

object.MetaDataOnly

Part	Description
object	An AppConn object (for example,AppConnModel, AppConnTerm, and AppConnTable)

Remarks

This property is read/write if the session is not connected, and read-only if the session is connected.

A metadata only session does not require a host connection and allows only methods and properties that interact with metadata. You must set MetaDataOnly to true before you use a Connect method.

Once a connect method has been called, and before the Disconnect method has been called, any attempt to change the value of the MetaDataOnly property will generate an error with this text: "The MetaDataOnly property cannot be changed while a connection is active."

When a client connects with MetaDataOnly set to true, the server will not reportthe connection as a session, and will not allocate a new session or a sessionfrom a pool.

Example

Set session = CreateObject("VeraStream.AppConnSessionEx")
    session.MetaDataOnly = True
    session.ConnectToModel "MyServer", "MyModel"
    ...
    session.Disconnect
