ExportVOD Method

Exports stand-alone objects from a Workspace or Joint WorkSpace (JWS) project or a single VOD Definition, based on supplied parameter values. Based on the input, the method determines a set of objects to be exported and produces a list of EAI property sets, corresponding to each of them. The resulting set of PropSets is wrapped in a single PropSet and returned in the output argument.

Syntax

ISS Import Export Authoring Service.InvokeMethod(“ExportVOD", Input Arguments,Output Arguments);

Arguments

Argument	Type	Description
MethodName	In	ExportVOD
Input Arguments	In	Hierarchical property set which supplies the starting information about export content
Output Arguments	Out	Hierarchical property set which contains the resulting content

Properties of Input Arguments: Combination 1

Property	Value	Description
RootObjectType	ISS_JWS	Indicates that the data is exported from a Joint Workspace Project
RootObjectId	Row Id of JWS project	None

If this combination of values is passed to the method, then it considers each entry in the content of the JWS project as a Root object. The resulting combined property set will include all of them.

Properties of Input Arguments: Combination 2

Property	Value	Description
RootObjectType	ISS_ATTR_DEF or ISS_CLASS_DEF or ISS_PROD_DEF or ISS_SIGNAL or ISS_VAR_MAP	Indicates that the data is exported from a single root object.
VODObjectNum	Root's S_VOD.OBJECT_NUM	Points to the VOD to be exported
VODVersion	version number	Points to the version number to be used in export

If this combination of values is passed to the method, then it considers a single entry as a Root object. The resulting property set will include only this object (as a child property set).

Error Conditions

Might return generic error codes from Object Manager, From EAI or from service. These codes are mainly about the input format, for example, that a parameter is missing.
