Hello-

SPS version 4.3

My starting point is a path string, which identifies an Attachment in my currently active Order.

Is there a way to resolve that path to the desired IAttachmentFile ?

Here's a snippet from an example in the SDK :

Code: Select all


IAttachmentFile fileItem =
    folderItem.Items
    .Where(t => t.Path == filePath)
    .Cast<IAttachmentFile>()
    .FirstOrDefault();

....but I'm assuming it only queries files within the given folderitem, but I want to use the SDK to locate the target anywhere in the Attachments tree.

Please advise.

Thank you.

Unfortunately, there is no direct way to descend the attachment folders. You can use String.Split to break the path into parts and move down one IAttachmentFolder at a time until you reach the desired file.
