ObjectType Property

The type of the object - generally List or Txn.

Syntax

 qbobject.getObjectType([callback])
 qbobject.setObjectType( objectType, [callback])

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 getObjectType([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 setObjectType([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

The type of the object: "List" for list items, or "Txn" for transaction items. Note that the name of the object's Id property determines the object type: List items have a "ListID" property, and transaction items have a "TxnID" property.

Failure to set this property will result in an XML parser error.
