Find if version has edits

Hi everyone,

I am currently trying to find out how I could get the information, if a specific version of my versioned workspace has changes or not. The purpose is to provide the information to a user over all versions avaliable. Therefor, i cannot use IVersionEdit.ModifiedClasses, as If I understand, this will only return something after reconcile.

Is there a way to find out, if a version has local changes?

I don't know ArcObjects, but can throw out some ideas from the user side of versioned editing to see if that rings a bell and correlates with an ArcObject process/method.

  • In SDE, there is a Version Changes command and tool.  Maybe the ArcObjects part of this is exposed so it can be implemented?  Using the Version Changes command—ArcGIS Help | ArcGIS for Desktop 
  • Edits to Versioned data is tracked by Delta tables.  If you can access the Add and Delete tables and they have records, then the version was edited.  Maybe there is an ArcObjects way to query them?

When looking through the documentation, this can be done with the IVersionedTable.Differences method. ( http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcobjects/latest/net/webframe.htm#72dfe883-e4d7-4925-835c-02bc513f91aa... )

Basically you iterate through each version you want to check for edits and set up IVersion objects for the child and parent version...  for each versioned object in SDE (I only check tables and features in the example below), cast it to IVersionedTable and call Differences with the type of edits you are looking for.  I call it 6 times.  It will return a DifferenceCursor which you can use to iterate over to see the IRow objects with differences.

You have to verify you are working with a versioned dataset or you will receive an error when calling the Differences method, or you could call IsRegisteredAsVersioned from the IVersionedObject but I had very poor performance from this call.

The Differences method has 6 options for the table returned.  See esriDifferenceType

I've been developing the code below but I'm only checking versions with Default as the parent, which works for our environment.  I also check to see if the version has any potential conflicts without reconciling (esriDifferenceType 3 through 5).  The results have been accurate so far but I put this together pretty quickly.  This is part of a larger addin so you'll have to modify for your needs.

Good luck~
