The IContentTransfer type exposes the following members.
Properties
Type | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
![]() | ClassDescription |
The ClassDescription object containing the property metadata for the EngineObject.
(Inherited from IEngineObject.) |
![]() | ContentSignature |
The SHA-256 hash signature used for content validation.
The property on ICmContentReplicationQueueEntry is used
by the asynchronous (queued) replication sweep.
The property on IContentTransfer is used by IStorageArea if any of the signature verification options are set on the CmContentIntegrityOptions property. In addition, the property can be used by applications for end-to-end retrieval validation. |
![]() | ContentSize |
Specifies the size in bytes of the content data associated with this document, annotation, or
ContentTransfer object. Note that if the document or annotation has more than one content element,
then the size is the sum of all of the content elements.
|
![]() | ContentType |
Specifies the Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) format string of the content data
carried by this content element, indicating the kind of data this content element represents.
MIME is a communications protocol that allows for the transmission of data in many forms,
such as audio, binary, or video.
(Inherited from IContentElement.)You can set the ContentType property of a specific content element when you create it and attach it to a document version. The ContentType property requires a value. If you do not provide a value for the ContentType property of a ContentReference object, an error occurs. By contrast, if you do not provide a value for the ContentType property of a ContentTransfer object, the Content Platform Engine attempts to discover the MIME type of the content data, and automatically sets the property to an estimated MIME type value. However, it is not always possible for the the Content Platform Engine to make a correct determination of the content data that the ContentTransfer object holds. Therefore, IBM recommends that you always set this property to the correct MIME type value when you add the content element. At a minimum, if you do not specify the MIME type value of the ContentType property, ensure that the path specified by the RetrievalName property of the ContentTransfer object contains the correct filename extension for the type of content data. Although Content Platform Engine does not enforce the format of this property's value, a MIME format string consists of a content type, a content subtype, and an optional parameter in the following format: "content type/subtype[;parameter]", for example, "text/html". Interpretation of the value is up to retrieving applications. MIME defines the following content types:
The following MIME types are specific to FileNet:
|
![]() | ElementSequenceNumber |
A unique sequence number for a content element in a particular document or annotation version.
Server-generated, the number serves as an unchanging identity for the content element.
For annotations, on which you can change content, the element sequence number for a
content element will not change. For example, if you were to change a content element's relative position
within the list of content elements, the element's sequence number would be retained.
Or if you were to replace the first content element with updated content, the content element
would receive a new element sequence number. Element sequence numbers are not reused.
(Inherited from IContentElement.)This property can be accessed from a IContentElement-based object, or from IGetContentEvent, representing the event fired when the content element specified in this property is retrieved. |
![]() | Properties |
The IProperties collection of properties for the EngineObject.
(Inherited from IEngineObject.) |
![]() | RetrievalName |
Specifies the path to the file from which the content data for this document or annotation content element (represented by a
ContentTransfer object) can be retrieved for editing. The complete path (including the file name) can contain up to
2083 characters; the file name itself can be up to 255 characters long.
