Declaration

bool ApplyFieldsToTranslationUnit(FieldValues values, bool overwrite, PersistentObjectToken translationUnitId)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
FieldValues	values	The field values to apply
bool	overwrite	If true, overwrite the old values, and merge the new values with the old ones otherwise.
PersistentObjectToken	translationUnitId	The identifier of the translation unit to apply the field values to

Returns

Type	Description
bool	true if the translation unit has been modified. false otherwise.

ApplyFieldsToTranslationUnits(FieldValues, bool, PersistentObjectToken[])

Applies the specified field values to the translation units identified by the specified translationUnitIds collection.

Declaration

int ApplyFieldsToTranslationUnits(FieldValues values, bool overwrite, PersistentObjectToken[] translationUnitIds)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
FieldValues	values	The field values to apply
bool	overwrite	If true, overwrite the old values, and merge the new values with the old ones otherwise.
PersistentObjectToken	translationUnitIds	A collection of translation unit IDs to apply the field values to

Returns

Type	Description
int	The number of changed translation units

DeleteAllTranslationUnits()

Deletes all translation units from the TM.

Declaration

int DeleteAllTranslationUnits()

Returns

Type	Description
int	The number of deleted translation units

DeleteTranslationUnit(PersistentObjectToken)

Deletes the translation unit with the specified translationUnitId from the TM.

Declaration

bool DeleteTranslationUnit(PersistentObjectToken translationUnitId)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
PersistentObjectToken	translationUnitId	The ID of the translation unit to delete.

Returns

Type	Description
bool	true if the translation unit was deleted, false otherwise.

DeleteTranslationUnits(PersistentObjectToken[])

Deletes the translation units with the specified IDs from the translation memory.

Declaration

int DeleteTranslationUnits(PersistentObjectToken[] translationUnitIds)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
PersistentObjectToken	translationUnitIds	A collection of the translation unit IDs to delete

Returns

Type	Description
int	The number of deleted translation units

DeleteTranslationUnitsWithIterator(ref RegularIterator)

Deletes all translation units in the TM, using an iterator. The iterator will process only a fixed maximum number of translation units (MaxCount) and then the call will return, giving the client an opportunity to discontinue the process or update the UI before the next round-trip.

Optionally, a filter can be set on the iterator which then will only delete those TUs which satisfy the filter condition.

Declaration

int DeleteTranslationUnitsWithIterator(ref RegularIterator iterator)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RegularIterator	iterator	The iterator to use.

Returns

Type	Description
int	The number of deleted translation units.

EditTranslationUnits(EditScript, EditUpdateMode, PersistentObjectToken[])

Applies an EditScript to the translation units identified by the identifiers in the translationUnitIds collection.

Declaration

int EditTranslationUnits(EditScript editScript, EditUpdateMode updateMode, PersistentObjectToken[] translationUnitIds)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
EditScript	editScript	The edit script to apply
EditUpdateMode	updateMode	The update mode, which can be to update changed translation units in-place or add new translation units to the TM (which is only relevant if segment data has been changed).
PersistentObjectToken	translationUnitIds	The collection of TU IDs to apply the edit script to.

Returns

Type	Description
int	The number of changed or edited translation units

EditTranslationUnitsWithIterator(EditScript, EditUpdateMode, ref RegularIterator)

Applies an EditScript to the translation units, using an iterator.

Declaration

int EditTranslationUnitsWithIterator(EditScript editScript, EditUpdateMode updateMode, ref RegularIterator iterator)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
EditScript	editScript	The edit script to apply
EditUpdateMode	updateMode	The update mode, which can be to update changed translation units in-place or add new translation units to the TM (which is only relevant if segment data has been changed).
RegularIterator	iterator	The iterator to use. Note that a filter condition can be set on the iterator in which case the script will only be applied to those translation units which satisfy the filter condition.

Returns

Type	Description
int	The number of changed or edited translation units

Remarks

Note that a filter condition can also be set on the editScript instead of the iterator. Depending on the back-end storage, it may be more efficient to set it on the iterator than on the edit script.

GetDuplicateTranslationUnits(ref DuplicateIterator)

Returns a set of potentially duplicated translation units in the TM, using a special DuplicateIterator. A group of TUs are considered potential duplicates of each other if the internal hash values for their source segments are identical. There may be several reasons for this being the case:

• The TUs have the same source segment, but different translations
• The TUs have different source segments, but only differ in complex tokens (controlled through the TM's ITranslationMemory.Recognizers) which will result in the identical hash values,
• The source segments only differ by whitespace or certain punctuation, which do not modify the hash values,
• The hashing algorithm leads to collisions in which case the segments may be entirely different, but still result in the same hash value.

Declaration

TranslationUnit[] GetDuplicateTranslationUnits(ref DuplicateIterator iterator)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
DuplicateIterator	iterator	The iterator to use

Returns

Type	Description
TranslationUnit	The translation units which are potential duplicates, or null if no more potential duplicates can be found.

GetTranslationUnit(PersistentObjectToken)

Retrieves the translation unit with the specified translationUnitId from the translation memory.

Declaration

TranslationUnit GetTranslationUnit(PersistentObjectToken translationUnitId)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
PersistentObjectToken	translationUnitId	The ID of the translation unit to retrieve.

Returns

Type	Description
TranslationUnit	The translation unit with the specified ID, or null if that TU does not exist.

GetTranslationUnitCount()

Returns the number of translation units in this TM. Note that the computation of the TU count may be a time-consuming operation for some back-end storage systems.

Declaration

int GetTranslationUnitCount()

Returns

Type	Description
int

GetTranslationUnits(ref RegularIterator)

Retrieves a set of translation units, using an iterator. At most MaxCount translation units will be returned in one round-trip.

• A FilterExpression can be set on the iterator in which case only those TUs which satisfy the filter condition will be returned.
• See also the remarks on MaxScan on how to avoid timeouts with filtered iteration.

Declaration

TranslationUnit[] GetTranslationUnits(ref RegularIterator iterator)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RegularIterator	iterator	The iterator

Returns

Type	Description
TranslationUnit	The translation units, or null if no more translation units can be retrieved.

PreviewEditTranslationUnitsWithIterator(EditScript, ref RegularIterator)

Applies the specified edit script to the translation units in a TM, but unlike EditTranslationUnitsWithIterator(EditScript, EditUpdateMode, ref RegularIterator), the TUs will not be updated in the TM, but modified copies of the TUs will be returned to the caller. This can be used to "preview" the changes the edit script would apply.

Declaration

TranslationUnit[] PreviewEditTranslationUnitsWithIterator(EditScript editScript, ref RegularIterator iterator)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
EditScript	editScript	The edit script
RegularIterator	iterator	An iterator. See also the iterator-related remarks for EditTranslationUnitsWithIterator(EditScript, EditUpdateMode, ref RegularIterator).

Returns

Type	Description
TranslationUnit

ReindexTranslationUnits(ref RegularIterator)

Re-indexes the translation memory, using an iterator so that the client can update progress indicators or discontinue the process.

The same iterator instance should be passed in subsequent calls, in order to obtain the next page, and so on.

Declaration

bool ReindexTranslationUnits(ref RegularIterator iterator)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
RegularIterator	iterator	The iterator to use for the re-indexing process.

Returns

Type	Description
bool	False if the iterator is at the end of the TM or the TM is empty, true otherwise. The re-indexing process should be continued until the method returns false.

Remarks

For larger TMs (> 100.000 TUs) it is recommended to also recompute the index statistics after the re-indexing finished (see RecomputeFuzzyIndexStatistics()).

UpdateTranslationUnitsMasked(TranslationUnit[], bool[])

Updates (adds, overwrites, or merges) the specified translation units.

Declaration

ImportResult[] UpdateTranslationUnitsMasked(TranslationUnit[] translationUnits, bool[] mask)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TranslationUnit	translationUnits	The translation units to update.
bool	mask	An optional mask with the same length as translationUnits. If provided, only those TUs in translationUnits will be updated for which the corresponding flag in mask is true . Those TUs for which the corresponding flag is false will only be used to establish context information. If no masking is required, this parameter can be null.

Returns

Type	Description
ImportResult	An array of ImportResults with the same length as translationUnits, which indicates, for each translation unit, the action taken by the translation memory.
