Element.Files.AddNew

[Charlie]

Hi,
I'm trying to add a file to an element.  However, using the code example below, the file is not saving.

Code: [Select]


private void AddFileToPackage(EA.Package package, string urlAddress)
{
....if (package != null)
....{
........if (package.Element != null)
........{
............package.Element.Files.AddNew(urlAddress, "Web Address");
............package.Element.Update();
............package.Update();
........}
....}
}


Anyone got any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

You appear to be saving the element and package with .Update(), but not the file.

Try capturing the file to a variable, and then calling update on the variable. Something along the lines of:

(EA.File) foo = package.Element.Files.AddNew(urlAddress, "Web Address");
foo.Update();

Great thanks...all working now.  C# code below:

Code: [Select]


EA.File file = package.Element.Files.AddNew(urlAddress, "Web Address") as EA.File;
file.Update();
