GetProperty Method  
 

Get the value of a property for the current item in the news feed.

Syntax

object.GetProperty( Property, Value )

Parameters

Property
A string which specifies the name of the custom property to retrieve the value for.
Value
A string that is passed by reference which will contain the property value when the method returns.

Return Value

A value of zero is returned if the property was specified in the news item. Otherwise, a non-zero error code is returned which indicates the cause of the failure. If the method fails, the value of the LastError property can be used to determine cause of the failure.

Remarks

The GetProperty method is primarily used with custom item properties that may be used with extensions to the news feed. The standard properties for an news feed item such as the title, link and description can be access using properties such as ItemTitle, ItemLink and ItemText. However, if items in the feed contain custom properties that are not part of the standard RSS format, this method can be used to obtain those values.
