Description

DAC-188

Uninstalling Documentum Application Connectors on a machine on which the Documentum Application Connectors Software Development Kit is already installed removes the Documentum menu from the TextEditor sample application connector. To resolve this issue, select EMC Documentum Application Connectors Software Development Kit 6.7 in the Add or Remove Programs console, click Change, and then select the Repair option. The Documentum menu appears again in the TextEditor sample application connector.

DACSDK-42

When you open two virtual documents consecutively from the repository in the DAC SDK TextEditor, the second document fails to open in the View mode. The Open dialog box is displayed persistently every time you click the View button. However, the document opens in the Edit mode when you click the Edit button in the Open dialog box.

DACSDK-36

When you open a repository text file to edit or view it using the TextEditorApp editor, the document title does not appear on the Title bar of the editor.

DACSDK-23

Uninstalling the Documentum Application Connectors Software Development Kit (by clicking Remove in Add/Remove Programs) on a machine on which Documentum Application Connectors is already installed, removes the Documentum menu in Documentum Application Connectors. To resolve this issue, double-click Documentum-AppConnectors-Client.exe and select the Repair option. The Documentum Application Connectors installation is repaired and the Documentum menu is displayed again in Microsoft Office applications. See the EMC Documentum WDK and Webtop Deployment Guide for more information about Documentum-AppConnectors-Client.exe.

The log file (for example, MyTextEditorApp.log) is not created even after configuring it in the *.exe.log4net.config file of your Documentum Application Connector.

Known Issues

Issue Number

Description

DACSDK-11

A "Post-Build Event" failed error occurs when you build the TextEditorApp solution. To resolve this issue, change the Post-build Event Command Line field of each project from the hard-coded path to a valid path on your machine. The Post-build Event Command Line field is on the Build Events tab of the project property pages.

DACSDK-35

When you open the MDITextEditorApp editor for the first time after installing Documentum Application Connectors Software Development Kit, the Checkin option is not displayed in the MyCompany menu of the editor. This issue occurs because the installer fails to prompt you to specify the Webtop URL when you install Documentum Application Connectors Software Development Kit the first time. As a result, the Checkin option is not included in the default appintmenubar_menugroup.xml file of Documentum Application Connectors Software Development Kit. The MyCompany menu of the MDITextEditorApp editor displays only those options that are specified in the file. For more information, see When you open the MDITextEditorApp editor the Checkin option fails to appear in the MyCompany menu (DACSDK-35), page 18.
