This example shows how to create an application that displays a form in which a user can assign permissions to folders for users and groups in a vault.
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.
// 2. Click
File > New > Project > Visual Basic > Windows Forms Application.
// 3. Type CallingCSharp in Name.
// 4. Click
Browse and navigate to the folder where to create the project.
//
5. Click OK.
// 6. Create a form similar to the form shown
above with the following names for the form controls:
//
a. Label1 (label control with text, "Select vault:")
//
b. comboVault (combo box control)
// c. buttonLogIn
(button with text, "Log In")
//
d. Label2 (label with text, "Users")
// e. buttonRefresh (button with
text, "Refresh Permissions")
// f. listViewUsers (list view control)
// ColumnHeader1 (ID)
// ColumnHeader2 (Name)
// ColumnHeader3 (Folder
ID)
// ColumnHeader7 (Folder)
// ColumnHeader8 (Folder
Permissions)
// g. Label3 (label with text, "Groups")
// h. listViewGroups (list view control)
// ColumnHeader4 (ID)
// ColumnHeader5 (Name)
// ColumnHeader6 (Folder
ID)
// ColumnHeader9 (Folder)
// ColumnHeader10 (Folder
Permissions)
// i. listViewPermissions (list view control)
// j. checkboxReverseOrder (check box with text, "Reverse Order")
// k. buttonApply (button with text,
"Apply Permissions")
// 7. Replace the code in Form1.cs with this code.
// 8. Replace the code in Form1.Designer.cs with
this code.
// 9. 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, click Add, and click Close).
// 10. Right-click References > EPDM.Interop.epdm, click Properties, and set
// Embed Interop Types to False to
handle methods
// that pass arrays of structures.
// 11. Click
Debug > Start Debugging or press F5.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. In the Form1 dialog, select a vault and click Log In.
// Wait for the application to populate the Users and Groups
list boxes.
// 2. Click permissions in the list box located left of the Reverse
Order check box.
// 3. Optionally select the Reverse Order check box.
// 4. Select the check boxes in front of the users and folders to which to
assign permissions.
// 5. Click Apply Permissions.
// Wait for the application to populate the Users list.
// The folder permissions are updated for the selected users.
// 6. Select the check boxes in front of the groups and folders to which to
assign permissions.
// 7. Click Apply Permissions.
// Wait for the application to populate the Groups list.
// The folder permissions are updated for the selected groups.
