RSSProvider Class (Component)
The RSSProvider class is used to retrieve news stories from an external RSS feed using categories and sources offered by each individual provider. The Updated event is called whenever a change occurs in the referenced data.
Typically, you will use the Toolbox to add a component to your EasyLanguage document. Click and drag the name RSSProvider into your document from the Toolbox. The name of the provider appears in the component tray at the bottom of your document. By default, the name is truncated to “RSSProvider”followed by a number to identify multiple instances of the component.
To reference a property value for a RSS provider object in EasyLanguage code, use RSSProvider1 followed by a 'dot operator', and the property name. Available RSSProvider properties, including inherited properties, will appear in the Autocomplete list.
Value1=RSSProvider1.News.Count]; // gets the number of RSS news items currently in the News collection.
For general information about providers, refer to Provider Classes.
