Re: How to Check Feature Lock Information.

Veeresh,

The user name of the user that has locked a feature is not available through the Map API. But, you can determine if a feature is locked with:

IECLockInfo* GetObjectLockInfo (IECInstanceReference* instanceRef) from Bentley.EngineeringContent.Storage.Xfm.dll

XFM C-API functions: xfmFeature_isEditBlocked, xfmFeature_isEditBlockedForChangeOperationType

Regards,

Chris

Veeresh:

I need to check whether any user locked particular feature if yes then I need to display particular user name who locked that feature.

Please explain what you mean by 'any user locked particular feature'. Are you using MicroStation or some add-on application, such as Bentley Map?

In general, MicroStation does not record which user made a particular change to an individual object in a DGN file. It knows the last user to make a change to a given file, but no more detail than that.

On a related note, have you examined DGN File History and what that can provide for history audit?
