Do you know of a SQL query that would retrieve the Windows storage path of the files stored in the Vault?
We would like to update variable values in our maps, the problem being that the software we would like to use needs the physical path of the Sld file to update the variable.
The problem with a batch, for example, is that it doesn't see in my local folder the files that I haven't extracted. If I do dir*.* in a folder in the vault from my computer, it sends me the directories in this folder but not the files, except the ones I created locally.
For the SQL query, not knowing the structure of the database, I don't know which table to point my query to.
The batch does not find the files because there are no files.
Unextracted files are stored directly in memory in a blob or threadable in a database.
I don't know what object epdm uses but you can look in this direction. Without knowing the structure of the database, it's going to be hard. Use the SQL Server console (management tool) to connect directly to the database and snoop around again and again:)
Other than leaving the latest version on disk space, there will be no path.
On the other hand, fiddling with the server's SQL tables is at your own risk. The easiest way is to go through excel, with the EPDM API it works not too badly without the risk of putting the system in error.
