This method translates an internal object-version identifier into an object-version identifier. Internal object-version identifiers are used by the Repository engine to identify Repository object versions.
variable = object.InternalIDToVersionID( intVersionId )
The InternalIDToVersionID method syntax has the following parts.
| Part | Description |
| variable | Receives the object-version identifier. |
| object | The object that represents the open Repository instance through which this program is interacting with the Repository. |
| intVersionId | The internal object-version identifier to be converted. |
Repository object-version identifiers are globally unique, and are the same across repositories for the same object. Internal object-version identifiers are unique only within the scope of a single Repository.
The translation performed by this method is performed without loading the object version in question. This enables database queries involving an object or relationship type identifier to be constructed without having to load the definition object.
