sampleDataObject.Properties.Set("a_content_type", [dynamic]);

nabajyotib

I have a piece of code for using the DFS productivity layer to upload the documents in Documentum.

sampledataobject.Properties.Set("a_content_type", "msw8");

where format is msw8

I want this to be dynamic; i have observed that under webtop wdk/app.xml there are entries.

However, i am usng dot net code to connect to EDMS; could you please let me know, fi there is any code to actually pick a file, extract out the extension,

and depending on the extension map the format and put the same in the placeholder. of the Set method (2nd param)

Thanks... ...

unfortunately DFS does not provide this natively, unlike DFC which has a helper method.

You can either write a custom service to do it, or issue a query on the dm_format objects to cache the mappings between document extensions and format - but be aware that there could be many for a file extension, i.e. for .doc
