This example shows how to roll back a checked-in file to its first revision in the current version.
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 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 PDM Professional installation, locate and click // EPDM.Interop.epdm.dll > Add > OK). // 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 checked-in file with a revision scheme and at least three // revisions in the current version: // a. Open a vault view in File Explorer. // b. Click a checked-in 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. Scroll down and examine the // Event and Version columns to verify that at least three // revisions exist for the current version of the file. // * not listed in the Event column, then // repeat steps 4b - 4d until you find a checked-in file // with a revision scheme and at least three revisions for // the current version. // 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 to display the selected file's path and file // name in the Get revision names dialog box. // 5. Click Get revisions. // 6. Displays a message box listing the names of the revisions // for the selected file. Click OK to close the message box. // 7. Displays a message box showing the revision to which the file // was rolled back and the current version. Click OK to close the // message box. // 8. Close the Get revision names dialog box. // 9. Click the file in the vault in File Explorer for which revisions // were rolled back. // a. Click Display > History. // b. Scroll down and examine the Event, Version, and Comment columns. //---------------------------------------------------------------------------- //Form1.cs using EPDM.Interop.epdm; using System.Windows.Forms; using System; namespace RevisionCSharp { public partial class Form1 : Form { public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); } IEdmVault5 vault1 = null; IEdmVault8 vault = null; IEdmFile5 aFile; IEdmFolder5 folder; private void Form1_Load(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e) { try { vault1 = new EdmVault5(); vault = (IEdmVault8)vault1; EdmViewInfo[] Views = { }; vault.GetVaultViews(out Views, false); VaultsComboBox.Items.Clear(); foreach (EdmViewInfo View in Views) { VaultsComboBox.Items.Add(View.mbsVaultName); } if (VaultsComboBox.Items.Count > 0) { VaultsComboBox.Text = (string)VaultsComboBox.Items[0]; } } catch (System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException ex) { MessageBox.Show("HRESULT = 0x" + ex.ErrorCode.ToString("X") + "\n" + ex.Message); } catch (Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.Message); } } public void RevisionButton_Click(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e) { try { //Only create a new vault object //if one hasn't been created yet if (vault1 == null) { vault1 = new EdmVault5(); } if (!vault1.IsLoggedIn) { //Log into selected vault as the current user vault1.LoginAuto(VaultsComboBox.Text, this.Handle.ToInt32()); } //Get the local version number int version = 0; version = aFile.GetLocalVersionNo(folder.ID); if (version < 1) { MessageBox.Show("A local copy of " + aFile.Name + " does not exist."); return; } //Get the version interface IEdmEnumeratorVersion7 verEnum = default(IEdmEnumeratorVersion7); verEnum = (IEdmEnumeratorVersion7)aFile; IEdmVersion8 ver = default(IEdmVersion8); ver = (IEdmVersion8)verEnum.GetVersion(version); //Enumerate the revisions string message = null; IEdmPos5 pos = default(IEdmPos5); pos = ver.GetFirstRevisionPosition(); IEdmRevision7 rev = default(IEdmRevision7); int verNbr = 0; if (!pos.IsNull) { message = "The following revisions are set on " + aFile.Name + ": " + "\n"; while (!pos.IsNull) { rev = (IEdmRevision7)ver.GetNextRevision(pos); message = message + " " + rev.Name + "\n"; verNbr = rev.VersionNo; } } else { message = "A revision scheme is not defined for " + aFile.Name + "." + "\n"; MessageBox.Show(message); return; } MessageBox.Show(message);
