Default Value

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getContents([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setContents([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

Type of the contents in the package.

Note that if Contents is set to ctOther, you may be required to set the OtherContents configuration setting with a description of the contents. For example:

class.Contents = ctOther
class.Config("OtherContents=Livestock")

For customs forms, the value of this property is required for the GetFormCP72 and GetFormCN22 methods calls. ctReturn is applicable for Customs Form CP 72 only.
