Detailed Description

The ElementOperand is defined in OPC-UA part 4, 7.4.4.2. It is used to identify another element in the filter by its index (the first element has the index 0).

This is required to create complex filters, for example to reference the two operands of the AND operation in ((Severity > 500) AND (Message == "TestString")). The first step is to create content filter elements for the two conditions (Severity > 500) and (Message == "TestString"). A third content filter element is required to create an AND combination of the two conditions. It consists of the AND operator and two element operands with the indices of the two conditions created before:

 import QtOpcUa as QtOpcUa

 QtOpcUa.EventFilter {
     select : [ ... ]
     where: [
         QtOpcUa.FilterElement {
             operator: QtOpcUa.FilterElement.GreaterThan
             firstOperand: QtOpcUa.SimpleAttributeOperand {
                 browsePath: [
                     QtOpcUa.NodeId {
                         identifier: "Severity"
                         ns: "http://opcfoundation.org/UA/"
                     }
                 ]
             }
             secondOperand: QtOpcUa.LiteralOperand {
                 value: 500
                 type: QtOpcUa.Constants.UInt16
             }
         }
         QtOpcUa.FilterElement {
             operator: QtOpcUa.FilterElement.Equals
             firstOperand: QtOpcUa.SimpleAttributeOperand {
                 browsePath: [
                     QtOpcUa.NodeId {
                         identifier: "Message"
                         ns: "http://opcfoundation.org/UA/"
                     }
                 ]
             }
             secondOperand: QtOpcUa.LiteralOperand {
                 value: "TestString"
                 type: QtOpcUa.Constants.String
             }
         }
         QtOpcUa.FilterElement {
             operator: QtOpcUa.FilterElement.And
             firstOperand: QtOpcUa.ElementOperand {
                 index: 0
             }
             secondOperand: QtOpcUa.ElementOperand {
                 index: 1
             }
         }
     ]
 }
