Package Events

The package events occur during the life cycle of export and import packages in Meridian Enterprise Server.

ExportPackage_ChangeState Event

Occurs when the status of an export package is changed by a user.

Syntax

ExportPackage_ChangeState(Package, PreviousState, User)

Parameters
Name	Description
Package	An object that represents the export package.
PreviousState	The previous state of the export package represented by one of the AS_EXPORTPACKAGE_STATUS_VALUES constants.
User	The name of the user that changed the package status.

Remarks

This event is intended for use with the Vault.SendNotification method to alert appropriate users about documents exported from a folder. Because that method requires a Document object context, pass it a document object and not the package object.

Example

Sub ExportPackage_ChangeState(Package, PreviousState, User)
  Dim doc
  'GlobalID of a document related to the package
  Set doc = Vault.GetDocument("{0F002100-998A-11E5-0000-56598CDC4B23}")
  doc.Log "The export package named " & package & " was changed from the " & _
  PreviousState & " state by " & User
  Vault.SendNotification "PACKAGEMAIL", doc
End Sub

ImportPackage_AfterImportedFromPortal Event
