• SLONG metadataValue - metadata property value
Returns: 1 if call was successful; 0 if call was unsuccessful
Syntax:
DEFINE_FUNCTION CHAR RmsAssetMetadataEnqueueNumber(CHAR assetClientKey[],
CHAR metadataKey[],
CHAR metadataName[],
SLONG metadataValue)
{
STACK_VAR CHAR rmsCommand[RMS_MAX_CMD_LEN];
// ensure an asset client key has been provided
IF(assetClientKey == '')
{

RETURN FALSE;
}
// ensure a metadata key has been provided
IF(metadataKey == '')
{
