updateCase

public int updateCase(java.lang.String objectStoreName,
                      java.lang.String[] caseIDs,
                      java.lang.String[] caseFields)
               throws java.lang.Exception

updateCase This method is used to update CE Case object and mapped Process and Attachment fields WARNING: This method is designed solely for updating Cases *other* than the *current* Case - i.e. the Case for which the current wob (through which this operation is being called) is the primary work object. If this warning is ignored and this operation is configured to update the *current* Case, a locking problem arises, whereby Component Manager locks the wob first, so that the code here runs into an error (wob locked) when *it* tries to lock the same wob and update it. This operation was designed for use with "attach document" scenarios, where an initiating attachment launches a secondary wob that finds a primary Case (including its wob) and attaches its own attachment to that Case before terminating. *If* it is necessary, in such a scenario, for the secondary wob to update fields on the primary Case before terminating, then this operation *should* be used. *If*, on the other hand, the aim is to update fields on the Case for which the *current* wob is the primary work object, the locking problem described above will occur. Instead of doing this, therefore, the recommended best practice for updating the *current* Case is to use CE_Operations to update CE fields and simple Workflow Assignment calls in the Workflow Map to update "Read from Workflow" fields.

Parameters:

objectStoreName - - Content Engine Object Store name.

caseIDs - - Array of CaseID to be updated.

caseFields - – Array of fields to be updated. Each entry consist of the following elements:
1. Name: CE field symbolic field name.
2. Type: Field type. Valid values are: DATETIME, NUMERIC, STRING, BOOLEAN, MONEY
3. Value. Value could be static String value or workflow field or expression.
Example: {"Bp8CaseType", "NUMERIC", numbertostring(1), "LoanNumber", "STRING", "1234567890", "LoanAmount", "MONEY", "LoanAmount", "ReceivedDate", "DATETIME", "01/31/2007 10:12:58"} NOTE: Make sure to specify the appropriate Case Type ID via the following assignment: "Bp8CaseType", "NUMERIC",numbertostring(1)

Throws:

updateCaseWithRosterThis method is used to update CE Case object and mapped Process and Attachment fields WARNING: This method is designed solely for updating Cases *other* than the *current* Case - i.e. the Case for which the current wob (through which this operation is being called) is the primary work object. If this warning is ignored and this operation is configured to update the *current* Case, a locking problem arises, whereby Component Manager locks the wob first, so that the code here runs into an error (wob locked) when *it* tries to lock the same wob and update it. This operation was designed for use with "attach document" scenarios, where an initiating attachment launches a secondary wob that finds a primary Case (including its wob) and attaches its own attachment to that Case before terminating. *If* it is necessary, in such a scenario, for the secondary wob to update fields on the primary Case before terminating, then this operation *should* be used. *If*, on the other hand, the aim is to update fields on the Case for which the *current* wob is the primary work object, the locking problem described above will occur. Instead of doing this, therefore, the recommended best practice for updating the *current* Case is to use CE_Operations to update CE fields and simple Workflow Assignment calls in the Workflow Map to update "Read from Workflow" fields.

Parameters:

objectStoreName - - Content Engine Object Store name.

caseIDs - - Array of CaseID to be updated.

caseFields - – Array of fields to be updated. Each entry consist of the following elements:
1. Name: CE field symbolic field name.
2. Type: Field type. Valid values are: DATETIME, NUMERIC, STRING, BOOLEAN, MONEY
3. Value. Value could be static String value or workflow field or expression.

sRosterName - - Configuration key for the Workflow Roster to use for this operation (configuration key and value need to be set in the bp8_config.xml within bp8ciops.jar). NOTE: Make sure to specify the appropriate Case Type ID via the following assignment: "Bp8CaseType", "NUMERIC",numbertostring(1) Example: {"Bp8CaseType", "NUMERIC", numbertostring(1), "LoanNumber", "STRING", "1234567890", "LoanAmount", "MONEY", "LoanAmount", "ReceivedDate", "DATETIME", "01/31/2007 10:12:58"}

Throws:

java.lang.Exception
