Getting Current Branch Name in a DCT

ngogia

Hello,

Pointers regarding the following -

Requirement –
To retrieve the branch and category for a particular DCT (data type), so as to include different CSS files based on the branch.

Problem –
Not able to get the branch for the DCT. Though Teamsite version 6.5 provides IWDatacapture.getDCTPath() but no such function is available with Teamsite 6.1.

Question –

1. Is there a way to retrieve the DCT path OR DCT’s parent branch and category in Teamsite 6.1?

2. Is there an alternate approach to include CSS files specific to a branch?

Thanks!

Try the following - it "should" work in 6.1 but it's a hack. I do not have the environment to test though.

// Get category Type
var dcrType = _iwdcWin.gTDT;

// Get Workarea
var mywa = parent.gWorkarea;
