The setting that determines whether a document can be a parent component in a compound document. The CompoundDocumentState enumeration has constants defined for the compound document state settings.

Valid settings are:

  • COMPOUND_DOCUMENT: Designates the document as the parent component in a compound document. Initially, this parent document has no child components. A document must be designated as a compound document to become a parent component for a ComponentRelationship object.
  • STANDARD_DOCUMENT(default setting - 4.0.x release): Designates the document as a standard document. This setting prevents the document from being a parent component within a compound document. A document cannot be designated as a standard document when referenced as a parent component by a ComponentRelationship object.
  • null (default setting - 3.5.x upgraded to 4.0.x): Designates the document as a standard document. By default, pre-existing documents in an object store upgraded to 4.0.x return a null value instead of STANDARD_DOCUMENT. Note that, although a null value can be returned, you cannot set this property to null.
