Example

Executing the example requires a form, the UiDimension component with the UiDimension1 identifier and the DimensionTree component with the DimensionTree1 identifier. UiDimension1 is set as a data source for DimensionTree1. A dictionary with the DIC_CAL_SL identifier located in the repository is connected to the UiDimension component. The file system is supposed to have the file C:\File.xml containing selection in the XML format.

Add a link to the XML system assembly.

The example is a handler of the OnCreate event for the form.

Sub IDIMSELECTION_SELECTLEVEL_OnCreate(Sender: Object; Args: IEventArgs);
Var
    XMLS: string;
    XML: FreeThreadedDOMDocument60;
Begin
    // Get selection from XML file
    XML := New FreeThreadedDOMDocument60.Create;
    XML.load("c:\File.xml");
    XMLS := XML.xml;
    DimensionTree1.Selection.DeselectAll;
    // Load selection in the XML format from the string
    DimensionTree1.Selection.ExternalLoad(XMLS);
End Sub IDIMSELECTION_SELECTLEVEL_OnCreate;

After executing the example the selection is loaded from the file C:\File.xml.
