Comments

It is prohibited to execute the following applied operations with the system dependent objects of an MDM dictionary (main MDM table, procedures): manually add or remove fields in the database table, and so on. Such operations may affect MDM dictionary functionality. Applied operations with child objects of MDM dictionary prevent the dictionary from working, and it is no longer supported.

With limitations:

IRdsDictionaryInstance. Work with dictionary data.
IRdsDictionaryElements. Work with a collection of dictionary elements.
IRdsDictionaryElement. Work with a dictionary element.

Without limitations:

IRdsDictionaryElementData. Access to dictionary element attributes data.
IRdsAttributeInstance. Work with an open dictionary attribute.
IRdsAttributesInstance. Work with a collection of open dictionary attributes.
IRdsLinksInstance. Work with a collection of open dictionary links.
IRdsLinkInstance. Work with open dictionary link.
IRdsDictionaryElementsSearch. Find dictionary element using advanced search settings.

When a new MDM dictionary is created, it works from the start and is ready to use.

When a new MDM dictionary is created, it may require to specify the database, in which a dictionary table will be created, in the Database property. By default, a database is sued that is set for the repository as default database.

Various properties of the IRdsDictionary interface enable the user to expand functionality of created dictionaries.
