ReposTypeLib Class
There is one repository type library for every information model contained in a repository database. Each information model provides a logical grouping of all of the type definitions related to a particular application, tool, or tool set that you are developing. Repository type libraries are instances of the ReposTypeLib class.
To insert a new information model into a repository database, use the ReposRoot class.
When to Use
Use the ReposTypeLib class to:
- Define new classes, relationship types, and interfaces for an information model.
- Retrieve or modify the global identifier associated with a repository type library.
