Retrieving client application information
Event Handlers can access information about the client application that started the event that triggered this Event Handler by accessing an object that is the subclass of the abstract class ContextData in the Tridion.ContentManager namespace.
To find out if an SDL Tridion product creates an object that inherits from ContextData and sets relevant application data, consult the documentation for that product. You can also create this type of object yourself when you interact with the TOM.NET API, for example, from your Templates.
The following client applications are a part of SDL Tridion itself:
- Batch processor
- Search indexer
- Workflow Agent
- Workflow Designer
- WebDAV
- Publisher
- External Activity
