How to get the full path for an object

Hi,

I a tbo I'm working on, I'm trying to get the full ath for an object:


IDfId id = this.getObjectId ();
  IDfObjectPath path = ( IDfObjectPath ) getSession ()
. getObjectPaths (id);

String s = path.getAccessiblePath ();

That gives me an error:


invokeMethod() failed while calling: onOk
com.documentum.fc.client.DfEnumeration cannot be cast to com.documentum.fc.client.IDfObjectPath

After closing this window, press the Refresh or Reload button on your browser to continue.

I'm not sure I'm going about it the right way.

Any ideas

Hello,

Are you trying to get the path for a document (IDfDocument or IDfSysObject) inside repository? if yes, you can try the following:

for(int j=0;j<document.getValueCount("i_folder_id");j++) {

IDfFolder folder = session.getObject(document.getFolderId(j));

for(int i=0;i<folder.getValueCount("r_folder_path");i++)

System.out.println("Folder (" + j + "," + i + ") = " + folder.getRepeatingString("r_folder_path",i));

}

The above code will traverse to all the places that document is linked and then will display all folder paths for that link. Your current user in session must have BROWSE or better permission on the folder identified by document.getFolderId(j) in order to be able to show it.

Hope it helps!

Jorge,

Thanks for the help.

It's not quite working though.

This line:

IDfFolder fldr = getSession ().getObject (this.getFolderId (i));

Won't compile without a cast.

IDfFolder fldr = ( IDfFolder ) getSession ().getObject (this.getFolderId (i));

But If I do that, I get a runtime error:

invokeMethod() failed while calling: onOk

com.documentum.fc.common.DfId cannot be cast to com.documentum.fc.client.IDfFolder

Any ideas?

Again, thanks for the help.

You are welcomed.

Yes, the cast was missing from the posted code (IDfFolder) , per you error message, looks like you have some kind of problem somewhere with your definitions, getObject() method would never return an IDfId object. I saw that you are using "i" index variable instead my "j" could that be the problem?

You can also post the complete error stack trace and the class code to review it?

You can use

IDfEnumeration getObjectPaths(IDfId objectId)

to get an IDfEnumeration of all the available paths for this object.

If you check DFC java docs, there is no getObjectPaths() method that return a single IDfObjectPath object. You will either receive an IDfEnumeration of IDfObjectPath objects (1 or more than if the object has links) or you can use

getObjectPaths(IDfList objectIdsList) to get IDfObjectPathsMap

Try one of these 2 methods depending on your requirement.
