saveRepository

 

 

Overview

The saveRepository function saves a block of records into the specified ObjectRepository. The ObjectRepository is cleared before the block is written. The saveRepository function, in connection with loadRepository, allows repositories to be read or written as blocks of records.

In addition, the saveRepository function may save a new child repository into the specified parent ObjectRepository and associate the child repository with the specified retrieval key. This allows repositories to contain independently accessible, nested, blocks of records

The saveRepository function allows multiple levels of nested repositories within a parent ObjectRepository. Child repositories may contain further nested child repositories to any level of nesting. Furthermore, each nested child repository may be accessed independent of either the parent repository or any of the other child repositories.

Note: saveRepository can only be used if the repository was created with compression. (See the new function and the key: true argument combination).

Usage

Use the saveRepository function to save records into an Object Repository.

 

Syntax

Expression:

(saveRepository aGor aDirectory)


Arguments Name Type Description
Argument:aGorObjectRepository The target ObjectRepository for the blocks to be saved
Argument:aDirectoryDirectory A block, of objects, which is to be saved in the specified repository.

Returns:

Returns the Object Id of the ObjectRepository where the blocks were saved.
