void AddVariable2(

   ref System.object poValue,
   System.int lEdmVarOp
)

void AddVariable2( 
&   System.Object^% poIdOrName,

&   System.int lEdmVarOp
) 

Parameters

poIdOrName

ID or name of variable for which to search

poValue

Value or regular expression for which to search (see Remarks)

lEdmVarOp

Operator to apply to poValue as defined in EdmVarOp (see Remarks)

If the search object:

• is IEdmSearch5, then:
  • before calling this method, call IEdmSearch8::BeginAND or IEdmSearch8::BeginOR to construct more complicated search criteria.
  • poValue may contain wildcards:

• % - any number of arbitrary characters
• _  - exactly one arbitrary character

• is created using IEdmVault21::CreateSearch2 (IEdmSearch9), then poValue follows basic syntax (single-value search logic rules. See Search Syntax.) lEdmVarOp must be Nothing or null.

The number of times you could call this method was limited to 4 in SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional Version 6.0 and earlier. This restriction was removed in Version 6.1.

Return codes:

• S_OK: The method successfully executed.
• E_EDM_KEY_NOT_FOUND: The variable name was not recognized.
