IMetabaseUpdate.LoadFromFileNF

Syntax

LoadFromFileNF(FileName: String; [Mode: UpdateLoadMode = 0]);

Parameters

FileName. Full name of the update file.

Mode. Method for loading objects to the update. Optional parameter.

Description

The LoadFromFileNF method loads an update from a file with the *.pefx extension.

Comments

The *.pefx format enables allows for saving a bigger number of objects to the update, comparing with the *.pef format. Use the IMetabaseUpdate.LoadFromFile method to load an update from the old *.pef format.

Example

Executing the example requires the C:\Update.pefx update file.

Add a link to the Metabase system assembly.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    Update: IMetabaseUpdate;
    SpecialObjNode: IMetabaseUpdateSpecialObjectsNode;
Begin
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    Update := Mb.CreateUpdate;
    Update.LoadFromFileNF("C:\Update.pefx");
    SpecialObjNode := Update.SpecialObjectsNode;
    SpecialObjNode.ApplyObject(MetabaseSpecialObject.SharedParams) := True;
    Update.SaveToFileNF("C:\Update2.pefx");
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example the special object that is global variables is added to the update loaded from the C:\Update.pefx file. Then the update is saved to other file.
