ReposTypeLib Object

There is one Repository type library for every tool information model contained in the Repository database. Each tool information model provides a logical grouping of all of the type definitions related to a particular tool (or tool set). Repository type libraries are represented by ReposTypeLib objects.

A ReposTypeLib object is also a RepositoryObject. In addition to the members described here, ReposTypeLib objects also provide the members that are defined for Repository objects.

To insert a new tool information model into the Repository database, use the ReposRoot object.

When to Use

Use a ReposTypeLib object to:

Define new classes, relationship types, and interfaces for a tool information model.
Retrieve or modify the global identifier associated with a Repository type library.
Determine which type definitions are associated with a particular Repository type library.
