Checking the Change Recording State of a PCM ObjectLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

The following example shows how to check the change recording state of a PCM object:

            //Get the IAdminBase representation of an object
        IAdminBase objAdminBase = getAdminBase(objectPath);

        //Get the IChangeRecordingInfo implementation for the object
        IChangeRecordingInfo crInfo = (IChangeRecordingInfo) objAdminBase.getImplementation(IAdminBase.CHANGE_RECORDING_INFO);

        //Get all change recording information for the object
        //Check if changes to the object are recorded
        boolean isRecorded = crInfo.isRecorded();

        if (isRecorded){
                //If the object is recorded, get the ID of the changelist containing it
                String changeListId = crInfo.getChangeListId();

                //If the changelist ID is not null, the object is checked out
                if (changeListId != null){
                //In this case, the object has an owner (the owner of the containing changelist)
                String ownerId = crInfo.getOwnerId();

                //Check whether the object was created, deleted or modified  
                ChangeRecordingState changeRecordingState = crInfo.getChangeRecordingState();
                switch (changeRecordingState) {
                case ADDED:
                        //Object was created 
                        break;
                case DELETED:
                        //Object was deleted 
                        break;
                case MODIFIED:
                        //Object was modified 
                        break;
                case NOT_CHANGED:
                        //This should not happen, because the object is checked out in a changelist
                        throw new IllegalStateException();
                }
        }
}
