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