Constructor Detail

Checkout

public Checkout(java.lang.String reservationId,
                ReservationType reservationType,
                java.lang.String reservationClass,
                Properties reservationProperties)

Creates a new instance of a Checkout pending action object.

Parameters:

reservationId - A String specifying a GUID to be assigned to the reservation object that is created when a document is checked out, thus overriding the reservation object's ID. An assigned ID can be useful if you need to later import a series of document versions. Use with caution. If null, the API generates a new GUID for the reservation object.

reservationType - A ReservationType constant specifying the type of checkout reservation: collaborative, exclusive, or the default object store setting (DefaultReservationType property). If null, the API uses the default object store setting.

reservationClass - A String specifying the symbolic name of a new class for the reservation object. If null, the class of the reservation object remains the same as that of the checked-out document.

reservationProperties - A Properties object containing a list of property values to pre-assign to the reservation object. If null, no property values are pre-assigned to the reservation object.

Throws:

E_NOT_SUPPORTED - if versioning is not enabled (IsVersioningEnabled = false) or the document is not the current version (IsCurrentVersion = false). Thrown when you call the save method.

E_RESERVATION_EXISTS - if the document is already reserved (IsReserved = false). Thrown when you call the save method.

E_BAD_PARAMETER - if reservationId is not a GUID. Thrown when you call the save method.

E_BAD_OBJECT - if reservationClass is not the same object type as the class of the checked-out document. Thrown when you call the save method.
