This example shows how to access key-value pairs in a vault dictionary.
NOTE: If using the primary interop assembly provided with SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional, see Using .NET Framework 4.0 in Stand-alone Applications.
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Preconditions: // 1. Start Microsoft Visual Studio. // a. Click File > New > Project > Visual C# > Windows Forms Application. // b. Type TestDictionary_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 PDM Professional installation, locate and click // EPDM.Interop.epdm.dll, click Open, and click Add). // 3. Right-click EPDM.Interop.epdm in References, cick Properties, and set // Embed Interop Types to False to handle methods that pass arrays of // structures. // 4. Click Debug > Start Debugging or press F5. // // Postconditions: // 1. Displays a dialog. // 2. Select a vault view. // 3. Click Substring in key. // 4. Click Get key-value pairs. // a. Displays a message box with all key-value pairs in the dictionary where // string key contains "at". // b. Click OK. // 5. Click Integer key range. // 6. Click Get key-value pairs. // a. Displays a message box with all key-value pairs in the dictionary where // integer keys are in the range, 13-88. // b. Click OK. // 7. Click Substring in values of all integer keys. // 8. Click Get key-value pairs. // a. Displays a message box with all key-value pairs in the dictionary where // value contains "three". // b. Click OK. // 9. Click Specific integer key. // 10. Click Get key-value pairs. // a. Displays a message box with the value for key, 77. // b. Click OK. // 11. Click Enumeration of all integer keys. // 12. Click Get key-value pairs. // a. Displays a message box with all integer key-value pairs in the dictionary. // b. Click OK. // 13. Click Delete a key-value pair. // a. Displays a message box notifying that key, 2, is removed. // b. Click OK. // 14. Click Create a key-value pair. // a. Displays a message box notifying that key, 2, is created. // b. Click OK. // 15.
