Get Revision Names for Local Version of File Example (C#)
This example shows how to the revision names for the local
version of a file.
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 RevisionCSharp 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, click Add, and click Close).
// 3. Right-click EPDM.Interop.epdm in References, click Properties, and set
// Embed Interop Types to False to handle methods that pass arrays of
// structures.
// 4. To find a file with a revision scheme:
// a. Open a vault view in Windows Explorer.
// b. Click a file.
// c. Click Display > History.
// d. Examine the Event column. If Revision is:
// * listed in the Event column, then the file
// has a revision scheme.
// * not listed in the Event column, then
// repeat steps 4b - 4d until you find a file with
// a revision scheme.
// 5. Click Debug > Start Debugging or press F5.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. Displays the Get revision names dialog box.
// 2. Select a vault view.
// 3. Click Browse.
// 4. Displays the Select a file dialog box.
// a. Click the file identified in Preconditions step 4 in the
// selected vault.
// b. Click Open.
// The selected file's path and file name appear
// in the Select a file dialog box.
// 5. Click Get revisions.
// 6. Displays a message box:
// * telling you that a local copy of the selected file does not exist.
// - or -
// * telling you that the selected file does not have a revision scheme.
// - or -
// * showing you a list of the names of the revisions for the selected file.
// 7. Click OK to close the message box.
// 8. Close the Get revision names dialog box.
