Methods

AddOrUpdateTranslationUnits(TranslationUnit[], Int32[], ImportSettings)

Adds an array of translation units to the database. If hash codes of the previous translations are provided, a found translation will be overwritten. If none is found, or the hash is 0 or the collection is null, the operation behaves identical to AddTranslationUnits(TranslationUnit[], ImportSettings).

If the provider doesn't support adding/updating, the implementation should return a reasonable ImportResult but should not throw an exception.

Declaration

ImportResult[] AddOrUpdateTranslationUnits(TranslationUnit[] translationUnits, int[] previousTranslationHashes, ImportSettings settings)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TranslationUnit[]	translationUnits	An arrays of translation units to be added.
System.Int32[]	previousTranslationHashes	If provided, a corresponding array of a the hash code of a previous translation.
ImportSettings	settings	The settings used for this operation.

Returns

Type	Description
ImportResult[]	An array of ImportResult objects, which mirrors the translation unit array. It has the exact same size and contains the status of each add operation for each particular translation unit with the same index within the array.

AddOrUpdateTranslationUnitsMasked(TranslationUnit[], Int32[], ImportSettings, Boolean[])

Adds an array of translation units to the database, but will only add those for which the corresponding mask field is true. If the previous translation hashes are provided, existing translations will be updated if the target segment hash changed.

If the provider doesn't support adding/updating, the implementation should return a reasonable ImportResult but should not throw an exception.

Declaration

ImportResult[] AddOrUpdateTranslationUnitsMasked(TranslationUnit[] translationUnits, int[] previousTranslationHashes, ImportSettings settings, bool[] mask)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TranslationUnit[]	translationUnits	An arrays of translation units to be added.
System.Int32[]	previousTranslationHashes	Corresponding hash codes of a previous translation (0 if unknown). The parameter may be null.
ImportSettings	settings	The settings used for this operation.
System.Boolean[]	mask	A boolean array with the same cardinality as the TU array, specifying which TUs to add.

Returns

Type	Description
ImportResult[]	An array of ImportResult objects, which mirrors the translation unit array. It has the exact same size and contains the status of each add operation for each particular translation unit with the same index within the array.

AddTranslationUnit(TranslationUnit, ImportSettings)

Declaration

ImportResult[] AddTranslationUnitsMasked(TranslationUnit[] translationUnits, ImportSettings settings, bool[] mask)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TranslationUnit[]	translationUnits	An arrays of translation units to be added.
ImportSettings	settings	The settings used for this operation.
System.Boolean[]	mask	A boolean array with the same cardinality as the TU array, specifying which TUs to add.

SearchSegment(SearchSettings, Segment)

Performs a segment search.

Declaration

SearchResults SearchSegment(SearchSettings settings, Segment segment)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
SearchSettings	settings	The settings that define the search parameters.
Segment	segment	The segment to search for.

Returns

Type	Description
SearchResults	A SearchResults object containing the results or an empty object if no results were found.

SearchSegments(SearchSettings, Segment[])

Performs a search for an array of segments.

Declaration

SearchResults[] SearchSegments(SearchSettings settings, Segment[] segments)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
SearchSettings	settings	The settings that define the search parameters.
Segment[]	segments	The array containing the segments to search for.

Returns

SearchResults[]	An array of SearchResults objects, which mirrors the segments array. It has the exact same size and contains the search results for each segment with the same index within the segments array.

SearchSegmentsMasked(SearchSettings, Segment[], Boolean[])

Performs a search for an array of segments, specifying a mask which specifies which segments should actually be searched (only those for which the corresponding mask bit is true are searched). If the mask is null, the method behaves identically to SearchSegments(SearchSettings, Segment[]). Passing a mask only makes sense in document search contexts (IsDocumentSearch set to true).

SearchTranslationUnitsMasked(SearchSettings, TranslationUnit[], Boolean[])

Similar to SearchTranslationUnits(SearchSettings, TranslationUnit[]), but allows passing a mask which specifies which TUs are actually searched. This is useful in document search contexts where some TUs are passed which should be used to establish a (text) context, but which should not be processed.

Declaration

SearchResults[] SearchTranslationUnitsMasked(SearchSettings settings, TranslationUnit[] translationUnits, bool[] mask)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
SearchSettings	settings	The settings that define the search parameters.
TranslationUnit[]	translationUnits	The array containing the translation units to search for.

Returns

Type	Description
SearchResults[]	An array of SearchResults objects, which mirrors the translation unit array. It has the exact same size and contains the search results for each translation unit with the same index within the translation unit array.

UpdateTranslationUnit(TranslationUnit)

Updates the properties and fields of an existing translation unit if the source and target segments are unchanged or adds a new translation unit otherwise. If the provider doesn't support adding/updating, the implementation should return a reasonable ImportResult but should not throw an exception.

The translation unit should be initialized in a previous call to the translation memory, so that the ID property is set to a valid value.

Declaration

ImportResult UpdateTranslationUnit(TranslationUnit translationUnit)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TranslationUnit	translationUnit	The translation unit to be updated.

Returns

Type	Description
ImportResult	The result of the operation.

UpdateTranslationUnits(TranslationUnit[])

Updates the properties and fields of an array of existing translation units if the source and target segments are unchanged or adds new translation units otherwise. If the provider doesn't support adding/updating, the implementation should return a reasonable ImportResult but should not throw an exception.

The translation units should be initialized in previous calls to the translation memory, so that their ID properties are set to valid values.

Declaration

ImportResult[] UpdateTranslationUnits(TranslationUnit[] translationUnits)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TranslationUnit[]	translationUnits	The translation unit array to be updated.

Returns

Type	Description
ImportResult[]	An array of results which mirrors the translation unit array. It has the exact same size and contains the results for each translation unit with the same index within the translation unit array.
