AttachFileCloud Function

Overview

The AttachFileCloud function sets up a connection to a file cloud.

Syntax/Parameters

Syntax

int = AttachFileCloud ( string params | string params [], [boolean notest] );

Parameters

params

A string or string array of the connection parameters. If a simple string is provided, the string must be in property: value; format. In array mode, the key names must match the property names listed below in the Remarks.

notest

A boolean value if set to TRUE (or non-zero), the connection is not tested.

Return Value

An int containing the index of the added connection or a formatted error code on failure.

Remarks

The AttachFileCloud function connects the application file system to an external file cloud. This connection is private to the instance of the application. Once established, the connection is available to all processes within the application.

Initial cloud connections may be set by application settings or from a client web relationship. If the CloudName combined with the Scheme exists, the attach process will fail with a ERROR_FILE_EXISTS sub error code. To replace the connection, disconnect using the ReleaseFileCloud function. If a parameter has an error or is unknown, an error will be returned.

The key or property names are as follows:

  Key/Property Name   Description
       
  CloudName   The name of the cloud connection. This is the reference name when accessing files as part of the scheme and path. It will also be the same as the name parameter if the name is used to reference the properties. This is a required value and cannot exceed 48 characters or contain invalid filename characters.
