Repository Class
When you populate an information model, the objects and relationships that conform to the model are stored in a repository. Multiple information models may be stored in the same repository. The Repository class represents your connection to a particular repository.
When to Use
You can use the Repository class to connect to a repository, retrieve the root object of the repository, create new repository objects, and manage repository transactions and error handling.
