Autodesk Vault Programmer's Cookbook
Appearance
Introduction
[edit | edit source]When an administrator starts working with Autodesk Vault, they run into quite unusual client-server logic. For programmers it's even more hard to understand how API really works. Autodesk, no offense.
But after a little time later all becomes much clear and easy. Remembering those days, I tried to comprehend Vault, at now I'd like to make easy way for others to start working with Vault.
I beg your pardon, but I'll be using PowerShell language mainly, for some reasons:
- This is .Net language, so code could be easy translated to any other .NET language: C#, C++ VB.NET, JScript .NET, etc., or even one code could be embedded to other.
- The code is extremely short - you can get very illustrative wonderful program in just several lines of code.
- PS is interpreted language, you just store it in text and can easy change to create fork.
- PS is command line language and you can build object conveyors - this benefits could be useful in administration.
All code available on GitHub. So, let's start! Approximate TOC you can see below. Links to articles will be continuously updated.
