Livelink Web Services Chunked interface samples?

Cary_Sweet

Does there exist any sample code showing how to get the send/receive Chunked data to/from Livelink via Web Services.  There exists a class ChunkedOperationContext, but cannot see any way to use it as yet.
 
LiveServices had fetchVersionSegmented and createVersionSegmented.  I am working on a conversion from LiveServices to Web Services and would like to use the Segmented/Chunked interfaces for large files.
 
I am working in Java and Livelink 9.7.1, but any code sample should be sufficient.

Hi Cary,

 

The ChunkedOperationContext object is only used for the Document Management Service's updateNodeRights and upgradeCategoryItems methods.  I think what you want to look at is the Content Service which deals with uploading and downloading content via streaming.  Here is a quick code sample (C#) of downloading a document via streaming:

 

 

 

// Create a context ID

string contextID = DocManServiceInstance.GetVersionContentsContext(ref DocManServiceAuth, documentID, versionNumber);

 

// Create the stream for the download

Stream downloadStream = ContentServiceInstance.DownloadContent(ref ContentServiceAuth, contextID);

 

// Read the contents from the stream

byte[] buffer = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE];

int bytesRead;

long totalBytesRead = 0;

 

while ((bytesRead = downloadStream.Read(buffer, 0, BUFFER_SIZE)) > 0)

{

totalBytesRead += bytesRead;

}

 

// Don't forget to close the stream

downloadStream.Close();

 

 

 

Hope this helps.
