Basically, I have my own search using WinForms (standalone application outside of PDM) so that I can search for "base" part numbers in my search and pull in variables when I select the filename in the list. The first part works nicely and I'm trying to now pull variables from the file. I can get file information just fine, but it's breaking when I try to set my textboxes to the object string.
Edit: I should mention the checkVault() is a method for getting the vault and logging in. this is not an issue as I am able to pull information using this method such as filename, path, id, etc.
public void checkVault() { vault2 = null; if (vault1 == null) { vault1 = new EdmVault5(); } vault2 = (IEdmVault7)vault1; if (!vault1.IsLoggedIn) { //vault1.LoginAuto("FocalPoint Vault", this.Handle.ToInt32()); vault1.LoginAuto("FocalPoint Vault", this.Handle.ToInt32()); } }
private void listResults_MouseClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { string configName = "Layout1"; object Desc1 = null; object Desc2 = null; object Rev = null; //object StockingType = null; int numSel = listResults.SelectedIndex; if (numSel >= 0) { checkVault(); IEdmFolder5 retFolder = default(IEdmFolder5); aFile = vault1.GetFileFromPath(listResults.SelectedValue.ToString(), out retFolder); IEdmEnumeratorVariable10 myvars = default(IEdmEnumeratorVariable10); //Set the enumeratorvariable object myvars = (IEdmEnumeratorVariable10)aFile.GetEnumeratorVariable(); //Cast the enumeratorvariable object to the file //myvars.GetVar("CreatedBy", configName, out CreatedBy); //Use the GetVar method myvars.GetVar("CAD_Description", configName, out Desc1); myvars.GetVar("CAD_Description1", configName, out Desc2); myvars.GetVar("CAD_Revision", configName, out Rev); myvars.CloseFile(false); //Always close the file when done accessing card variables to avoid runtime errors //Mymessage = Mymessage + "File ID: " + myfile.ID + System.Environment.NewLine; //Create a message with the File ID //breaks here textRev.Text = Rev.ToString(); textDesc1.Text = Desc1.ToString(); textDesc2.Text = Desc2.ToString(); } }
This was answered in another post I had.
