Method Detail

getArchive

ITable getArchive()
                  throws IOException,
                         AutomationException
The archive table associated with this archivable class.

Remarks

This property allows a reference to the non-versioned archive class to be established. From this reference the archive class can be edited using the editing objects exposed throughout the Geodatabase API. It should be noted that editing any of the Geodatabase maintained columns such at "GDB_FROM_DATE", "GDB_TO_DATE", or "ARCHIVE_OID" has the potential of corrupting the archive of the associated feature class, and is therefore not recommended.
