Examples

The following code example displays information about the cross-site groups on the current site and the users who are members of each group. This example assumes the existence of a label within the form of a Windows Application.

Dim srvSiteData As New Web_Reference_Name.SiteData()
srvSiteData.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials

Dim siteMData As Web_Reference_Name._sSiteMetadata
Dim siteTime() As Web_Reference_Name._sWebWithTime

Dim users As String
Dim groups As String
Dim arrGroups() As String

srvSiteData.GetSite(siteMData, siteTime, users, groups, arrGroups)

label1.Text = siteMData.PortalUrl + ControlChars.Lf

Dim time As Web_Reference_Name._sWebWithTime

For Each time In  siteTime

    label1.Text += time.Url + " :: " + time.LastModified.ToString() + ControlChars.Lf

Next time

label1.Text += groups + ControlChars.Lf

Dim str As String

For Each str In  arrGroups

    label1.Text += str + ControlChars.Lf

Next str

Web_Reference_Name.SiteData srvSiteData = new Web_Reference_Name.SiteData();
srvSiteData.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

Web_Reference_Name._sSiteMetadata siteMData;
Web_Reference_Name._sWebWithTime[] siteTime;

string users;
string groups;
string[] arrGroups; 

srvSiteData.GetSite(out siteMData, out siteTime, out users, out groups, out arrGroups);

label1.Text = siteMData.PortalUrl + "\n";

foreach (Web_Reference_Name._sWebWithTime time in siteTime)
{
    label1.Text += time.Url + " :: " + time.LastModified.ToString() + "\n";
}

label1.Text += groups + "\n";

foreach (string str in arrGroups)
{
    label1.Text += str + "\n";
