Repository Engine Classes
Repository engine classes are used to add, retrieve, and change information model data in a repository. To create a new information model, or extend an existing one, use the Repository Type Information Model (RTIM) classes. For more information, see RTIM Classes.
All repository engine classes expose the standard IUnknown and IDispatch interfaces that provide fundamental COM and Automation support.
The following table lists the repository engine classes in alphabetical order.
