Getting content using DFC 5.2 with C#

trickyl

I have written a SharePoint web part that connects to our Content Server 5.2 docbase.

Ideally I would like to use the IDfSysObject.getContent method to retrieve the document content when a user clicks on the Title.

I have read that getContent will not work in .NET code and have found the same with my testing.

I have also tried using apiGet and apiExec commands, but without success.

Could someone tell me how i should approach this?

I'm writing the web part in C# on a Windows 2003 server with MOSS and DFC 5.2 installed.

I have java code where the com.documentum.dmcl.Dmcl40().GetContent() method has been used, but I cannot referece Dmcl40.dll from my VS 2008 project.

Any ideas on how to retrieve content for a document from .NET code with DFC5.2 without using getFile() would be much appreciated.

Thanks - Rick.
