All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, RemoteAccess

public class SubmissionCommands
extends Object
implements RemoteAccess, Serializable

This class is an implementation of Submit Now functionality used for various change objects.

Method Detail

checkIsSubmitNow

public static boolean checkIsSubmitNow(NmCommandBean cb,
                                       WTContainerRef container)
                                throws WTException

This method checks to see of the object being passed in is LifeCycleManaged. If it is then the method checks if the object is in the intial Phase defined by the LifeCycleTemplate. If the object is in the initial phase, processing continues via a remote method invocation to check for existence of a synchronization robot with a specific name. If the synchronization robot is found, Submit Now functionality has been enabled in the Windchill system.

Supported API: true

Parameters:

cb - The NmCommandBean that stores a reference to the Windchill object

container - A reference to the container of the object being submitted

Returns:

boolean If the Windchill object's workflow contains the specified workflow synchronization robot, return true

Throws:

WTException
