Mass Check-In

[mchandler]

I am working on a project to do some vault automation to check in a very large number of files. To do this, I am trying to use a list of checked out files from a VaultClientCheckOutList object, then I build a string[] to pass to the ProcessCommandCheckIn method. The issue I am having is that I cannot seem to find how to iterate through and retreive the vault paths from the VaultClientCheckOutList object. There is no Item method and the IndexOf method requires values that I don't seem to have. Does anyone have any advice they could give me on this? Or possibly, has anyone been able to write code that will in some other way check-in a large volume of files?

A couple of things to try: 1. You can use a wildcard to do checkins with the format: "$/trunk/src/**/*", which would check in every item below src. Also, you can use a local path as well.

Thanks for the help. I got file paths to work, but I am having trouble using wildcards, see my code below:

string filePath = "$/BMC/2.84/**/*";
ServerOperations.ProcessCommandCheckIn(new string[] { filePath }, UnchangedHandler.UndoCheckout, bKeepCheckedOut, LocalCopyType.Leave);

I get a 'Commit failed' error if i try to run this, is there something wrong with this command that would cause this? Also, I tried to set up wildcards on a local path with no success as well.

Make sure that you hook into the ServerOperations.UserMessage event to catch the error message that will give you more details on the failed commit. I would expect that there are incompatible changeset requests that can't be committed at the same time.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot, if I still can't get a solution, I will try to build an array of local file paths.
