DisplayName on op.attachments.add not working

[lidds]

I am using the following code to add attachments from my database to a document. The problem is, even though I am settings the attachment "DisplayName" it still displays the fileName?

Code: Select all

                Dim nID As Integer = Me.docPreview.Inst.Str2ID("op.attachments.add", False)
                Dim Op As PDFXEdit.IOperation = Me.docPreview.Inst.CreateOp(nID)
                Dim input As PDFXEdit.ICabNode = Op.Params.Root("Input")

                For Each myRow As DataRow In myResults.myDataset.Tables("Attachments").Rows
                    Try
                        input.Add().v = Me.docPreview.Doc

                        Dim options As PDFXEdit.ICabNode = Op.Params.Root("Options")
                        Dim destPath As PDFXEdit.IAFS_Name = fsInst.DefaultFileSys.StringToName(MISData.Instance.DocShareName & "\Attachments\" & myRow.Item("attachmentOID").ToString.ToUpper & "." & myRow.Item("fileExt").ToString.ToUpper)
                        options("FileName").v = destPath
                        Console.WriteLine(myRow.Item("fileName").ToString.ToUpper() & "." & myRow.Item("fileExt").ToString)
                        options("DisplayName").v = myRow.Item("fileName").ToString.ToUpper() & "." & myRow.Item("fileExt").ToString
                        options("MimeType").v = myRow.Item("fileType").ToString.ToUpper()
                        options("Description").v = myRow.Item("fileDesc").ToString.ToUpper
                        Op.Do()
                    Catch ex As Exception

                    End Try
                Next

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

I have also tried the following code in the FullDemo example and the same happens

Code: Select all

    private void btnAddAttachment_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
      try
      {
        int nID = this.pdfCtl.Inst.Str2ID("op.attachments.add", false);
        PDFXEdit.IOperation Op = this.pdfCtl.Inst.CreateOp(nID);
        PDFXEdit.ICabNode input = Op.Params.Root["Input"];

        try
        {
          input.Add().v = this.pdfCtl.Doc;

          PDFXEdit.ICabNode options = Op.Params.Root["Options"];
          PDFXEdit.IAFS_Name destPath = fsInst.DefaultFileSys.StringToName("D:\\Files\\Attachments\\44A92110-0E64-409D-8E1E-1CCFBCFFC9BC.DOC");
          options["FileName"].v = destPath;
          options["DisplayName"].v = "simon.doc";
          options["MimeType"].v = "APPLICATION/MSWORD";
          options["Description"].v = "My description";
          Op.Do();
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {

        }
      }
      catch (Exception ex)
      {
        Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
      }
    }

A little bit more information, it seems that the "DisplayName" is being held, however the actual Attachments UI Grid displays the fileName not the DisplayName. Am I able to fix this somehow?

Thanks

Hello Simon,

I've investigated and hopefully fixed this - this was an inner logic - the display name and the FileName were similar in all of the cases that they were used in the End-User Editor - thus this was not noticed. The fix will be available from the next build (end of June hopefully).

Cheers,
Alex

Thanks Alex, look forward to the new release.

Just out of interest is there a way to get an automatic notification when you release a new build?

Thanks

Hello Simon,

The updater of the End-User Editor should give you a notification.

Cheers,

Alex,

I don't have the End-User editor installed. Is there not a way to get notification through your website. I obviously have an account and license for the Editor SDK, should this not email me when you upload a new version?

If not I will install the end-user editor to achieve this.

Thanks
