Method Summary


`void`	`Activate ()`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. Sets the server to be active in session.

`void`	`CheckinObjects (optional pfcModel_ptr Mdl, optional pfcCheckinOptions_ptr Options)`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. Checks in an object to the database.

`xstringsequence_ptr`	`CheckoutMultipleObjects (xstringsequence_ptr Files, xbool Checkout, optional pfcCheckoutOptions_ptr Options)`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. Checks out or downloads multiple objects to the workspace. Checkout rules are processed based on the Workspace config spec, unless the version is set using `pfcCheckoutOptions::GetVersion(optional xrstring)`. If the config spec is LATEST, for example, the latest version of the indicated object(s) will be checked out. If an aliased URL path to a model is supplied, and more than one revision of the model is in the path, Creo Parametric will apply the workspace config spec rules against the objects which reside in that folder.

`xstring`	`CheckoutObjects (optional pfcModel_ptr Mdl, optional xrstring File, xbool Checkout, optional pfcCheckoutOptions_ptr Options)`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. Checks out or downloads an object to the workspace. Checkout rules are processed based on the Workspace config spec, unless the version is set using `pfcCheckoutOptions::GetVersion(optional xrstring)`. If the config spec is LATEST, for example, the latest version of the indicated object(s) will be checked out. If an aliased URL path to the model is supplied, and more than one revision of the model is in the path, Creo Parametric will apply the workspace config spec rules against the objects which reside in that folder.
