Moving Doc......

Agostino Curti

Hi folks,

I'm using the function 'llnode.NodeMove( onode, nnode, 'name' )' to copy a document from onode to nnode folder (with final name = 'name') in my LL971 environment. My problem is: on the nnode I have a category (with attributes already set) and I want my document inherits  the relative attribute values (the category is already on the doc). Is there some parameter on NodeMove() function to replicate the LL standard functionality 'Destination,source,merge' of the doc copy ? Thanks for your suggest.....

AFAIK the GUI does it with added oscript calls.When I want the parent attribute values copied to a new node I use a simple function like this.I could be wrong maybe there is a better call giving you that functionality .The code that I post here works on a simple enough livelink install without a lot of defaults

Function Assoc EnforceCategoriesOnChildren(Object prgCtx,DAPINODE srcNode,DAPINODE dstNode)
//Pass it the program context the foldernode to inherit categories from as a DAPINODE and the newnode as a DAPINODE
//we copied the version but we lost the attributes echo(dstNode.pVersionNum)
Dynamic parentAttr = $LLIAPI.AttrData.New( prgCtx, srcNode.pID, srcNode.pVersionNum)
parentAttr.DBGet()
Dynamic newAttr = $LLIAPI.AttrData.New( prgCtx, dstNode.pID, dstNode.pVersionNum )
newAttr.DBGet()
newAttr.fData = parentAttr.fData
newAttr.fDefinitions = parentAttr.fDefinitions
Dynamic llnode = $LLIAPI.LLNodeSubsystem.GetItem( dstNode.pSubtype )
Dynamic status = llnode.NodeCategoriesUpdate( dstNode, newAttr )
return( status )

end
