GetOriginatorProcessName Method

Retrieves the name of the process that initiated the operation.

Syntax

cbregistry.getOriginatorProcessName([callback])

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 this 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.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This method can be called within events fired for registry operations to retrieve the name of the process that initiated the operation. If the query fails, this method returns empty string.

Note: This method can only be called within events.
