Getting Attribute Values Using LL_AttrGetValues

I am trying to get the attribute values back for an object using the function LL_AttrGetValues in VB. For some reason no matter what object I choose that has attributes set for it, I get the default attributes back for the object even though I have LL_ATTR_DATAVALUES in the function.What am I doing wrong??? status = (LL_AssocSetInteger(lngParentObjectAssoc, "ID", lngParentObjID)) status = (LL_ListObjectCategoryIDs(session, lngParentObjectAssoc, lngCatIDList)) status = (LL_ValueGetIndexValue(lngCatIDList, 0, lngCatID)) status = (LL_FetchCategoryVersion(session, lngCatID, lngCatVersionAssoc)) status = LL_AttrListNames(session, lngCatVersionAssoc, lngAttrPathList, lngRequestAttrs) status = LL_ValueAlloc(length) status = LL_ValueAlloc(length1) status = LL_ValueGetLength(lngRequestAttrs, length) textList = "" Dim Text, Text1 As String For i = 0 To length - 1 Text = LCase(Trim(GetString(lngRequestAttrs, i))) status = LL_AttrGetValues(session, lngCatVersionAssoc, Text, LL_ATTR_DATAVALUES, lngAttrPathList, lngAttrValues) status = LL_ValueGetLength(lngAttrValues, length1) For j = 0 To length1 - 1 DocID = 0 Text1 = "" status = LL_ListGetType(lngAttrValues, j, valType) If valType = LL_STRING Then Text1 = LCase(Trim(GetString(lngAttrValues, j))) End If textList = textList & Text & "^" & status & "^" & length1 & "^" & valType & "^" & Text1 & "
" & vbCrLf Next NextThanks,Bill Mendesbmendes@col-col.com

Bill,

FetchCategoryVersion returns the attributes from the category object itself. Hence, these are the default values. If you want the attributes values set on an specific object, use GetObjectAttributesEx instead of FetchCategoryVersion.

Getting Attribute Values Using LL_AttrGetValues Posted by elpasouser3 on 04/28/2003 01:45 PM

I am trying to get the attribute values back for an object using the function LL_AttrGetValues in VB. For some reason no matter what object I choose that has attributes set for it, I get the default attributes back for the object even though I have LL_ATTR_DATAVALUES in the function.

What am I doing wrong???

status = (LL_AssocSetInteger(lngParentObjectAssoc, "ID", lngParentObjID))
status = (LL_ListObjectCategoryIDs(session, lngParentObjectAssoc, lngCatIDList))
status = (LL_ValueGetIndexValue(lngCatIDList, 0, lngCatID))
status = (LL_FetchCategoryVersion(session, lngCatID, lngCatVersionAssoc))
status = LL_AttrListNames(session, lngCatVersionAssoc, lngAttrPathList, lngRequestAttrs)
status = LL_ValueAlloc(length)
status = LL_ValueAlloc(length1)
status = LL_ValueGetLength(lngRequestAttrs, length)
textList = ""
Dim Text, Text1 As String
For i = 0 To length - 1
Text = LCase(Trim(GetString(lngRequestAttrs, i)))
status = LL_AttrGetValues(session, lngCatVersionAssoc, Text, LL_ATTR_DATAVALUES, lngAttrPathList, lngAttrValues)
status = LL_ValueGetLength(lngAttrValues, length1)
For j = 0 To length1 - 1
DocID = 0
Text1 = ""
status = LL_ListGetType(lngAttrValues, j, valType)
If valType = LL_STRING Then
Text1 = LCase(Trim(GetString(lngAttrValues, j)))
End If
textList = textList & Text & "^" & status & "^" & length1 & "^" & valType & "^" & Text1 & "<BR>" & vbCrLf
Next
Next
