get_attribute


Description:

public unowned VCardAttribute? get_attribute (string name)

Get the attribute name from this.

The VCardAttribute is owned by evcard and should not be freed. If the attribute does not exist, null is returned.

Note:

This will only return the first attribute with the given name. To get other attributes of that name (for example, other TEL attributes if a contact has multiple telephone numbers), use get_attributes and iterate over the list searching for matching attributes.

This method iterates over all attributes in the VCard, so should not be called often. If extracting a large number of attributes from a vCard, it is more efficient to iterate once over the list returned by get_attributes.

Parameters:

this

an VCard

name

the name of the attribute to get

Returns:

An VCardAttribute if found, or null.
