Creating a Modeling Container

Below is the example of using the OpenMs operation to create a modeling container. The request contains repository moniker and identifier of the container to be created. The response contains moniker of opened modeling container instance. Any additional data is not extracted.

NOTE. Before creating a modeling container make sure that a default MDM repository is defined for the current repository. To set a default MDM repository, use the property ISpecialObjects.SpecialObject(MetabaseSpecialObject.RdsDatabase).

The OpenMsNew function creates a modeling container in the repository root. The repository connection moniker as well as the name and identifier of the created container are sent as input parameters. After executing the function returns the result of executing the OpenMs operation.

 public static OpenMsResult OpenMsNew(MbId mb, string msId, string msName)
 {
     // Set operation execution parameters
     var tMsOp = new OpenMs();
     tMsOp.tArg = new OpenMsArg()
     {
         // Set container create parameters
         args = new MsOpenArgs()
         {
             openNew = new MsOpenNew()
             {
                 id = msId,
                 name = msName,
                 parent = null
             }
         }
     };
     tMsOp.tOb = new OdId();
     // Form moniker
     tMsOp.tOb.id = mb.id;
     // Create proxy object for operation execution
     var somClient = new SomPortTypeClient();
     // Open modeling container for edit
     OpenMsResult tResult = somClient.OpenMs(tMsOp);
     return tResult;
 }
