create object - Creates an object entry

SYNOPSIS

cdscp create object object-name [CDS_Class = class-name CDS_ClassVersion = value]

ARGUMENTS

object-nameThe full name of the object entry. 

class-nameThe class of object entry being created. You can specify an application-defined class name. A class is specified as a simple name limited to 31 characters. 

valueThe version of the class assigned to the object entry. Specify the value as v.n, where v defines the major release number and n specifies the minor version number.  Specifying a class version is useful as it allows the definition of a class to evolve as the application is revised. 

DESCRIPTION

The create object command creates an object entry. This task is usually done through a client application. 

Privilege Required

You must have insert permission to the parent directory. 

NOTE

This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE. 

EXAMPLE

The following command creates an object entry named /.:/sales/east/floor1cp. The object entry describes a color printer on the first floor of a company’s eastern sales office. 

cdscp> create object /.:/sales/east/floor1cp CDS_Class = printer CDS_ClassVersion = 1.0
