IMetabaseObjectFindInfo.ScanHiddenFolders

Syntax

ScanHiddenFolders: Boolean;

Description

The ScanHiddenFolders property determines whether the search is performed in the hidden folders.

Comments

If the user has not rights to read any folder, this folder (and its contents) is hidden from the repository. The property is set to False by default, the search is not performed in the hidden folders. If there are objects in the hidden folders to which the user has a right to read, it is necessary to set the property to True to find them.

Example

To execute the example, add a link to the Metabase system assembly.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    MDescs: IMetabaseObjectDescriptors;
    MDesc: IMetabaseObjectDescriptor;
    FInfo: IMetabaseObjectFindInfo;
Begin
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    FInfo := MB.CreateFindInfo;
    FInfo.ClassId := MetabaseObjectClass.KE_CLASS_STDCUBE;
    FInfo.WholeWordsOnly := False;
    FInfo.ScanHiddenFolders := True;
    MDescs := MB.Find(FInfo);
    For Each MDesc In MDescs Do
        Debug.WriteLine("Identifier: " + MDesc.Id + "; Name: " + MDesc.Name);
    End For;
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example all standard cubes, which are contained in the repository, are searched. Search is executed in all repository folders including the ones, to which the user may have no read permissions. Names and identifiers of the found objects are displayed in the development environment console.
