Listener for Save As operation

[karan1904]

Hi,

I am trying to create a Listener in Windchill for the Save-As action performed from an EPMDoc. I am trying to usePersistenceManagerEvent.COPY_LINK,but this does not seems to be working out.

Could anyone suggest on this.

Thanks,

Karan

Are you trying to do something before or after the save as action/wizard is used?

Hello Karan

If you listen COPY_LINK, you need to navigate to the associated objects.
PRE_COPY or POST_COPY can be used in-line with your requirements.

Thank you and have a great time.

Hi Dave,

I want to perform the action after the Save-As operation.

Thanks,

Hi Swamy,

My requirement is to perform some operation on the new object that gets created after save-as operation.

POST_COPY and PRE_COPY does not seems to be working.

It is possible that these events are related to copy/paste operations in
the folder or search results. I have found that events do not always
get thrown when you would expect them to. Since there is a save as
history object recreated, you might have to track those objects and look
for pre and post store.

Yeah I believe there is a NEW_COPY also generated by
wt.enterprise.EnterpriseHelper copy methods which act as a delegate for
whatever class is registered to actually duplicate the object you are
working with. Karan, TCS should have someone within your company that can
help you answer this or troubleshoot with you further. Good luck.

Hi Antonio,

I have tried using POST_STORE, butit was not able to catch the event.

Thanks,

Hello Karan

If you need to perform some operations on the copied object, then the best
bet is listening for MadeFromLink.

When you perform SAVE-AS, a link wt.enterprise.MadeFromLink is created for
associating the original object and the copied object. Try to capture the
store event of MadeFromLink

and from MadeFromLink, original and copied objects can be retrieved from
getOriginal() and getCopy(). If this approach is not working for you, please
indicate what is not working.



Thank you and have a great time.
