apply PE_createNewRevision from client method

Hi Lucas

Can you update your client side method with below code

var wnd = aras.getMainWindow();
var topWnd = aras.getMostTopWindowWithAras(window);
wnd = wnd === topWnd ? wnd.main : topWnd;
var selectedId;
var itemTypeName;
var innovator = new Innovator();
if (wnd.parent.main) {
itemTypeName = wnd.parent.main.work.itemTypeName;
selectedId = wnd.parent.main.work.grid.getSelectedItemIds();
} else {
itemTypeName = wnd.itemTypeName;
selectedId = [wnd.itemID];
}
if (selectedId.length < 1) {
return;
}
var contextItem = innovator.newItem(itemTypeName, "get");
contextItem.setAttribute("id", selectedId);
contextItem = contextItem.apply();
if (!contextItem.isError()) {
var confirmation;
confirmation = aras.confirm("creation of new major revision ?");
if (confirmation !== true) {
return false;
} else {
contextItem.setAction('PE_CreateNewRevision');
var result = contextItem.apply();
if (result.isError()) {
return top.aras.AlertError(result.getErrorString());
}
}
}

Let me know if it works.

Thank You

thanks a lot for your fast response, i've updated the method with the code you gave me and i get this error:

Details in 6 temporary files C:\Program Files (x86)\Aras\Innovator\Innovator\Server\dll\nlor1c1u Line number 19, Error Number: CS1012, Too many characters in character literal Line number 19, Error Number: CS1026, ) expected Line number 19, Error Number: CS1513, } expected Line number 22, Error Number: CS1513, } expected

I believe the method you modified is C# method. Current OOTB instance, Create New Revision use Server Side Code. Unfortunately, we can give warning / confirmation only through client side method. So, my solution would be

1. Change the Action to Client Side 

or 

2. Create New Client Side action and attach the above code as new Javascript Method

Hi

Steps to be followed are:

Step 1: Navigate to Actions --> Search for PE_CreateNewRevision

Step 2: Change the Location to Client

Step 3: Create a New JavaScript Method and copy above code

Step 4: Add this method in PE_CreateNewRevision action

Test and let me know if it works.

my method and action are actually both client side

hello

I followed the step you gave me but still get the same error message:

Have you modified this method PE_CreateNewRevision ? 

Changed from Server Side to Client Side ?

yes i 've swtiched  the action PE_CreateNewRevision to client side and changed the method called by a new one with the code you provided which is also client side. I have'nt modified the PE_CreateNewRevision method    

This error is specific to C# methods. So, can you check whether this error coming from some other method associated in item type server events (Events like OnAfterVersion, OnBeforeVersion) and compile this method PE_CreateNewRevision and check for any error.

hi 

I checked the server events and my method for resetting minor rev was the source of my problem. Thank you  very much for your help!!
