About the renaming of drw or prt files in winchill

[CZ_5750486]

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 10.2 and Datecode with CPS F000 

About the renaming of drw or prt files in winchill:
1. After renaming these files through API, winchill page, Creo client, the renamed records are saved in which database tables;
2. What is the mechanism of renaming? Do the madefromlink table and indentitychangehistory table save the renamed records?
3. What is the relationship between renaming and version number?

1.通过API, winchill页面， Creo客户端对这些文件重命名后，重命名的记录分别保存再那些数据库表中 ; 
2.重命名的机制是怎样的，madefromlink表， indentitychangehistory表是否都会保存重命名的记录 ; 
3.重命名跟版本号是怎样的关系 ;

The Database table that handles name changes is IdentityChangeHistory. You can add a table to a custom tab that shows rename history. Name and Number should be seen immediately in the respective master tables (WTPartMaster, WTDocumentMaster, etc). As far as the CADNAME for Creo objects, remember that Creo uses filenames to retrieve objects. When a rename occurs, Windchill does not modify the binary content to fix renamed files. This occurs dynamically, each time when and CAD object is brought into a local workspace. It happens on the fly. 

There is no relationship between renaming and version numbers. Its not considered a change that causes an iteration since you are updating the master object.

Will madefromlink save the renamed records? Some renamed records cannot be found in IdentityChangeHistory, but can be found in the madefromlink table. What is the reason?

(madefromlink会保存重命名的记录吗，有的重命名记录在IdentityChangeHistory找不到，但是在madefromlink表中可以找到。这个时什么原因)

Is the madefromlink a save as table? Unfamiliar with that table. https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS109144?source=search

Yeah, I do not think that is related to rename history.
