GUI says item is modified, but API says it's unmodified

[Tilman]

Hi,

I'm using the API (3.5.2) to check stuff into Vault. I'm trying to use ChangesSetItem.Type to determine which items are Unmodified, so I can undo their check outs, rather than checking them in. The problem I'm having is, all items seem to have ChangeSetItemType.Unmodified, no matter whether they are modified, or not.

Here is what I'm doing

Code: Select all

            m_VaultClient.Get(versionFolder, true, true, MakeWritableType.MakeAllFilesWritable, 
                SetFileTimeType.CheckIn, MergeType.OverwriteWorkingCopy, null);
            m_VaultClient.CheckOut(versionFolder, true, VaultCheckOutType.Exclusive, "Build automation");

            copyFilesBack();

            m_VaultClient.Refresh();

            foreach (ChangeSetItem csi in m_VaultClient.InternalChangeSet_GetItems(false))
            {
                if (csi.DisplayRepositoryPath.StartsWith(versionFolder.FullPath)
                    && csi.Type != ChangeSetItemType.Unmodified)
                {
                    csi.Comment = "Build automation";

                    updateFileChangeSets.Add(csi);
                }
            }

copyFilesBack() replaces the checked out files in the working folder with modified files. In theory, Vault should detect this modification (after the Refresh at the latest), and it does in the GUI, however, the API seems to always say csi.Type == ChangeSetItemType.Unmodified.

Is there anything I'm doing wrong?

Cheers,

If you can, try to get the working folder object for the change set's item path. Next, query that object for the file's working folder status (GetStatus()).

Thanks.
