addVersion method of DocumentManagement

gaurav_mahajan

Hi Experts,

Needed some help on how should i convert a string array to Metadata type object as in the addVersion method one of the parameters is Metadata which am not able to convert as i  donot have the categorytemplate as for that i would need the categoryTaxonomy which is not there with me.

Metadata metadata3 = new Metadata();

metadata3.getAttributeGroups().add(categoryTemplate);

so i cant use the above code, i just have an array of strings which i have to  change to Metada object type

Jean-Francois Larente

Metadata metadata = newMetadata();//Create Metadata object

metadata = node.Metadata;

 

metadata.AttributeGroups =newAttributeGroup[1]; // Size the attributeGroups to the number of categories that will be assigned to the node

 

metadata.AttributeGroups[0] = categoryTemplate;

 

node.Metadata = metadata;

 

DocManClient.UpdateNode(node);

 

 

If dealing with multiple categories or if you want to ADD a category to a node which may already have an existing category assigned to it, make sure you retain the count of attributeGroups as well as the instances of those attributeGroups as you need to “re-add” them to the collection.

 

The following code adds the “Document Properties” category with “MyAttributeValue” as the Document Group attribute. (wanted to give some context as this is custom code). This may (or may not) be efficient but it’s tested and works well.

 

 

StringValue documentGroupValue = documentPropertiesCategoryTemplate.Values[Array.FindIndex(documentPropertiesCategoryTemplate.Values, 0, IsDocumentGroup)] asStringValue;

documentGroupValue.Values =newstring[] {"MyAttributeValue" };

 

Metadata metadata = newMetadata();//Create Metadata object

 

metadata = node.Metadata;

 

List<object> myList = newList<object>();

 

for (int i = 0; i == node.Metadata.AttributeGroups.Length - 1; i++)

{

myList.Add(node.Metadata.AttributeGroups[i]);//Populate temporary object with Existing Node categories (attribute groups)

}

 

metadata.AttributeGroups =newAttributeGroup[node.Metadata.AttributeGroups.Length + 1];//create attribute groups for metadata object sized accordingly

 

//populate the Attribute Groups object with existing Attribute Group objects

 

for (int i = 0; i < myList.Count; i++)

{

metadata.AttributeGroups[i] = (AttributeGroup)myList[i];

}

metadata.AttributeGroups[myList.Count] = documentPropertiesCategoryTemplate; // Add category to the end of the collection

 

 

node.Metadata = metadata;// Set the Metadata objects back onto the node

 

docmanClient.UpdateNode(node); // Call CWS to update.
