Retrieves an object of the requested type, given class and object identifiers.
This method always makes a round-trip to the server. You can optionally
include a filter to control which properties to return with the object.
If you pass in null for the filter parameter, this method returns
values for all non-object properties and returns placeholders for all object-valued
properties. For details, see the description of the filter parameter.

function fetchObject(classIdent, objectIdent, filter); |
Parameters
- classIdent
- Type: System..::.String
The class name of which this object will be an instance.
- objectIdent
- Type: System..::.String
The ID, path, or name of the object to retrieve.
- filter
- Type: FileNet.Api.Property..::.PropertyFilter
A PropertyFilter object that represents information for
controlling which property values (and with what level of detail and recursion) to return.
If null, this method returns values for all non-object properties and returns
placeholders for all object-valued properties (PropertyEngineObject
properties with a state of PropertyState.UNEVALUATED or
PropertyState.REFERENCE); any subsequent attempts to access an object-valued
property will cause an automatic round-trip to the server to fetch its value.
Return Value
An object of the type requested.
