Vault client API needs a 'get local version'

cturner@vsea · Post by **cturner@vsea** » Fri Apr 06, 2012 3:33 pm

We would like to be able to get the local version of a file as well as the remote version (the call to do that works nicely). The client obviously knows this, since it is displayed in the UI.

Thanks,
Charles

I'm not sure I understand. Can you explain further what you mean?

A Get will retrieve from the Vault server no matter what the local version is at. If you go into history and get a historical version, then you can get the same version you have in the history. There is no function in the Vault GUI client to "get local version."

There are "Local Version" and "Remote Version' columns in the client that display the current version number in the repository and the last version retrieved from the repository.

So, you want a Get that will retrieve just the same version you currently have on disk, rather than performing the Get from history, is that correct?

There is a GetOperations.ProcessCommandGetVersion Method that will get any version you want, but it sounds like you might want it to detect the version on disk. Is that what you're looking for? If that's the case, there was a discussion on how to do that posted here: http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic ... ion#p66752.

I can still put in a feature request, but I'm just trying to be clear about what is wanted.

Sounds to me like he just wants the numbers.

Thanks.

cturner@vsea: Do you want to weigh in on what GregM had to say?

What GregM says is correct - I want to get the number from the "Local Version" column in the Vault client for each file. I will check out the link that Beth gave - thanks!

OK, I read the thread that Beth pointed to. It looks like Tom888 wants the same thing that I do, and Linda Bauer has put the feature in for consideration in a future Vault version.

I will add your vote to that feature request then. Thank you for your feedback.
