Batch Add Files and Folders to Vault Example (C#)
This example shows how to add several files and folders to
the vault in one batch.
NOTE: If using the .NET Framework 4.0 primary interop assembly
provided with SolidWorks Enterprise PDM, see
Using .NET Framework 4.0 in
Stand-alone Applications.
//----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Start Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.
// a. Click File > New > Project > Visual C# > Windows Forms Application.
// b. Type BatchAddFiles_CSharp in Name.
// c. Click Browse and navigate to the folder where to create the project.
// d. Click OK.
// e. Click Show All Files in the Solution Explorer toolbar and expand
// Form1.cs in the Solution Explorer.
// f. Replace the code in Form1.cs with this code.
// g. To create the
form, replace the code in Form1.Designer.cs with
// this code.
// 2. Add EPDM.Interop.epdm.dll as a reference (right-click the project
// name in the Solution Explorer, click Add Reference, click
// Assemblies > Framework in the left-side panel, browse to the top folder of
// your SolidWorks Enterprise PDM installation, locate and click
// EPDM.Interop.epdm.dll, click Open, and click Add).
// 3. Add Microsoft.VisualBasic as a reference (click
// COM in the left-side panel, click
// Microsoft.VisualBasic, click Add, and click Close).
// 4. Right-click EPDM.Interop.epdm in References, click Properties, and set
// Embed Interop Types to False to handle methods that pass arrays of
// structures.
// 5. Click Debug > Start Debugging or press F5.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. The Batch
add files to vault dialog box displays.
// a. Select a vault view.
// b. Click Select file outside vault to copy to vault.
// c. In the Select File dialog:
// 1. Click a file
outside the vault.
// 2. Click Open.
// d. Click Select file inside vault to copy to vault.
// e. In the Select File dialog:
// 1. Click a file in the vault.
// 2. Click Open.
// f. Click Commit all files to vault.
// 2. Click Add in the Batch Items dialog box.
// 3. Click OK to close the
message box.
// Two new folders, Folder1 and Folder2,
are created in the vault's
// root directory. The first selected file is copied to
Folder1.
// The second selected file is copied to Folder2.
// 4. Close the Batch add files to vault dialog box.
