Changes to the DomainCategory Methods

The following changes were made to the DomainCategory methods:

• The ID and ServiceDomain fields were added to the DomainCategoryData classes and the internal order of the fields was modified slightly.
• The ServiceDomain field was removed from the CreateDomainCategory method.
• The OptionalDoubleEntity class was added to the API. The new structure contains the following two fields:

• The following five fields were changed from type long to the OptionalDoubleEntity class:
  • MinimalServiceComponentLevelTarget
  • MaximalServiceComponentLevelTarget
  • YellowThreshold
  • OrangeThreshold
  • RedThreshold

Remarks

Prior to version 7.0 Service Pack 1, the above five fields could not be given a null value or a non-integer value. If for any reason they were given a null or a non-integer value, the API automatically assigned them the value zero instead.

As of version 7.0 Service Pack 1, these five fields were modified and can now be assigned null or non-integer values.

Example (C#)

When Reading

Instead of

double target = MinimalServiceComponentLevelTarget;

Use

double target;

If (MinimalServiceComponentLevelTarget != null)

{

If (MinimalServiceComponentLevelTarget.IsValueLess == true)

target = null;

Else

target = MinimalServiceComponentLevelTarget.Value;

}

Else

target = null;

When Writing

Previously

MinimalServiceComponentLevelTarget = 99.999

Currently

MinimalServiceComponentLevelTarget = new OptionalDoubleEntity();

MinimalServiceComponentLevelTarget.IsValueLess = true;

MinimalServiceComponentLevelTarget.Value = 99.999;
