voidCheckinObjects ( /* optional */ pfcModel Mdl, /* optional */ pfcCheckinOptions Options)

Checks in an object to the database.

The model must be saved using pfcModel.Save() before it can be checked in. This function does not save the model by default.

Exceptions thrown (but not limited to):

Checkin options object of type pfcCheckinOptions. Pass null for a default checkin (as per Creo Parametric's Checkin button in the File menu).



stringseqCheckoutMultipleObjects (stringseq Files, boolean Checkout, /* optional */ pfcCheckoutOptions Options)

Checks out or downloads multiple objects to the workspace. Checkout rules are processed based on the Workspace config spec, unless the version is set using pfcCheckoutOptions.Version. If the config spec is LATEST, for example, the latest version of the indicated object(s) will be checked out. If an aliased URL path to a model is supplied, and more than one revision of the model is in the path, Creo Parametric will apply the workspace config spec rules against the objects which reside in that folder.

Exceptions thrown (but not limited to):

pfcXToolkitCheckoutConflict - Conflicts occurred. Check the details in the conflicts return.


Parameters:
Files
Sequence of top level objects to checkout or download. This can contain either aliased URLs to a given object or the object name. If an aliased URL path to the model is supplied, and more than one revision of the model is in the path, Creo Parametric will apply the workspace config spec rules against the objects which reside in that folder.
Checkout
Checkout flag .true to checkout and download, false to download without checking out.
