IRepository Interface
See Also
When you define a tool information model, the classes, relationships, properties, and collections for the model are stored in a Repository. Multiple tool information models may be stored in the same Repository.
When to Use
Use the Repository interface to create and access Repository databases. You can also use the Repository interface to create and access Repository objects in a Repository database.
