Hi,

I have created a doucment and attached a file to it .Later I checked out that file (Document File) manually to a folder, and tried to check in the same file through program. I used attachPhysicalfile() function.After this there is no increment in the version number of the file and also
in the context menu of the document file, options for checkingout for file,directory etc., are gone and lock status is corrupted.

If I manually check in the file every thing works fine. I couldn't figure whats wrong with my code, which works without any errors

The inputs to the program are file name (FileName) and directory(Dir), using which I am getting the
File item and trying to apply check in functionality on it

My code is as follows:

     Item search_itm = innovatorObj.newItem("File", "get");
            search_itm.setAttribute("select", "filename,checkedout_path");
            search_itm.setProperty("filename", FileName);
            search_itm.setProperty("checkedout_path", Dir);

            Item result_item = search_itm.apply();

                if (result_item.isError())
                {
                    MessageBox.Show(result_item.getErrorString());
                    return;
                }

                for (int i = 0; i < result_item.getItemCount(); i++)
                {
                    Item FileItem = result_item.getItemByIndex(i);

                    string FilePath = FileItem.getProperty("checkedout_path") + "\\" + FileItem.getProperty("filename");


                     FileItem.attachPhysicalFile(FilePath);

                     Item Checkedin_item = FileItem.apply();

   if (Checkedin_item.isError())
   {
       MessageBox.Show(Checkedin_item.getErrorString());
       continue;
   }
   else
   {
       MessageBox.Show(FilePath + " checked in successfully");
   }

           }




       Regards,
       Shafi

Well, i don't see any action from your AML there's just a get at the top. But we should see an Add action somewhere.

I would suggest a trip to Boston !! :-)

good luck

Hi,

I am trying to retrieve an existing file and checkin after making modifications, so I think I can used edit or update action instead of add.If I use add a new file is getting created which I donot want .

Using the code I posted , 'checkedout_ path' value before my action had the directory value where the file was checked out and after the apply() action it is empty, which means that item has been checked-in.Am I wrong?
