How to register as versioned using ArcGIS Pro SDK .NET?

Hi,

How to register a feature dataset as versioned using ArcGIS Pro SDK .NET?

The following is ArcObject codes:

ESRI.ArcGIS.Geodatabase.IVersionedObject pVersionedObject = null;
pVersionedObject = (ESRI.ArcGIS.Geodatabase.IVersionedObject)pFeatureDataset;
if (!pVersionedObject.IsRegisteredAsVersioned)
{
pVersionedObject.RegisterAsVersioned(true);
}

Thanks!

Hi,

You can do it by calling geoprocessing:

var mva = Geoprocessing.MakeValueArray(datasetName, "EDITS_TO_BASE");
await Geoprocessing.ExecuteToolAsync("RegisterAsVersioned_management", mva);‍‍

Thanks @GKmieliauskas !!

Hi @GKmieliauskas ,

Is there any other way not using Geoprocessing call?

I am using enterprise geodatabase.  If I use Geoprocessing, I have to hardcode the input Feature Dataset's path using sde connection file. I try to avoid that. 

Can this be done inside of geodatabase connection? Thanks!

DatabaseConnectionProperties connectionProperties = new DatabaseConnectionProperties(EnterpriseDatabaseType.Oracle)
{
...
}
using (Geodatabase geodatabase = new Geodatabase(connectionProperties))
{
// register feature dataset as versioned
}

I don't know another way.

Geoprocessing tool documentation here:

https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/data-management/register-as-versioned.htm 

It says that parameter must be Feature Dataset or Table View. There is no matter for Geoprocessing.MakeValueArray if you pass text string or FeatureDataset object. So code could look like this:

DatabaseConnectionProperties connectionProperties = new DatabaseConnectionProperties(EnterpriseDatabaseType.Oracle)
{
...
}
using (Geodatabase geodatabase = new Geodatabase(connectionProperties))
{
      // Open a FeatureDataset.
      using (FeatureDataset featureDataset = geodatabase.OpenDataset<FeatureDataset>("your_dataset_name"))
      {
           // register feature dataset as versioned
           var mva = Geoprocessing.MakeValueArray(featureDataset, "EDITS_TO_BASE");
           await Geoprocessing.ExecuteToolAsync("RegisterAsVersioned_management", mva);
      }
}

Great! Let me try! Thanks for quick response!

Does it work for you? It's not working for me

The RegisterAsVersion GP can only take input FeatureDataset as string.  So the input FeatureDataset object won't work even in the MakeValueArray method. 

With GDB connection on the fly, this will do the trick:

DatabaseConnectionProperties connectionProperties = new DatabaseConnectionProperties(EnterpriseDatabaseType.Oracle)
{
...
}
using (Geodatabase geodatabase = new Geodatabase(connectionProperties))
{
      // Open a FeatureDataset.
      using (FeatureDataset featureDataset = geodatabase.OpenDataset<FeatureDataset>("your_dataset_name"))
      {
		string path = featureDataset.GetPath().ToString().Replace("file:///", "");
		var mva = Geoprocessing.MakeValueArray(path, "NO_EDITS_TO_BASE");
		var gpResult = Geoprocessing.ExecuteToolAsync("management.RegisterAsVersioned", mva);
		Geoprocessing.ShowMessageBox(gpResult.Result.Messages, "GP Messages", gpResult.Result.IsFailed ? GPMessageBoxStyle.Error : GPMessageBoxStyle.Default);
      }
}

this works, Thanks!
