Hi,

See javadocs for IDfSysObject.checkout() and IDfSysObject.checkin().

Alternatively, you may want to look at IDfCheckoutOperation and IDfCheckinOperation.

Good luck

Hello , I have this method but iwant my version label to appear in documentum rather than 1.1 so what can i do

below is the code i am implementing right now,

public void doCheckIn(IDfSession sess , String strPath) throws DfException

    {       

        IDfDocument sysObj = (IDfDocument) sess.getObjectByPath(strPath);

        if(sysObj == null)

        {

        System.out.println("SysObject does not exist");

        return;

        }

        if(sysObj.isCheckedOut())

        {

            sysObj.checkin(true, "ver1.1");

            return;

        }

        else{

            sysObj.checkout();

            sysObj.checkin(false, "ver2");

            sysObj.save();

            return;

        }       

    }

Hi Mayur,

Kindly try and use the following method

sysobj.checkinEx()

checkinEx(boolean keepLock, String versionLabels, String oldCompoundArchValue, String oldSpecialAppValue, String newCompoundArchValue, String newSpecialAppValue) throws DfException

This is the extended method for checkin.

Note: This method differs from checkin by providing arguments to set application-specific attributes. To use the checkinEx method, the following conditions must be met:

• The object must have been retrieved from the repository with a checkout method.
• The user must have at least Version permission on the object.
• The user must have at least Write permission on the cabinet or folder in which the object is stored if the repository is running with folder security.

Note: Folder security is on by default when a repository is configured. The folder security setting is recorded in the folder_security attribute of the docbase config object.

hello ,

I am not getting last four parameters passed to this method

IDfId checkinEx(boolean keepLock,

                String versionLabels,

                String oldCompoundArchValue,

                String oldSpecialAppValue,

                String newCompoundArchValue,

                String newSpecialAppValue)

                throws DfException  

ie . 

oldCompoundArchValue  ,  oldSpecialAppValue ,newCompoundArchValue , newSpecialAppValue  what are these attributes means , please elaborate with example .

Regards

VHK

the parameters value are as follows

Parameters:keepLock - Determines whether a lock is placed on the newly

created version.versionLabels - Defines the version label for the new

version. You can specify more than one label. If you do not define a label,

the server automatically gives the new version an implicit version label

and the symbolic label CURRENT.oldCompoundArchValue - Sets the

a_compound_architecture attribute of the checked-out object.

oldSpecialAppValue - Sets the a_special_app attribute of the checked-out

object.newCompoundArchValue - Sets the a_compound_architecture attribute of

the new version created by the check in.newSpecialAppValue - Sets the

a_special_app attribute of the new version created by the checkin.

kindly refer javadocs if you need further explanation about the

functionality of this method.

Hope this helps.
