Sample Code to Update a Resource’s Custom Field

Please find below a code sample I wrote that updates a Resource's Custom Field of type Flag.

You can call this method in a loop for instance to automatically reset a CF for all resources.

   1:          public static bool UpdateResourceCustomField(ResourceWS.ResourceDataSet resDS, Guid cfUID, bool flagValue)

   2:          {

   3:              Guid cfExists = GetCUSTOM_FIELD_UID(resDS, cfUID);

   4:              if (cfExists != Guid.Empty)

   5:              {

   6:                  for (int cf = 0; cf < resDS.ResourceCustomFields.Count; cf++)

   7:                  {

   8:                      if (resDS.ResourceCustomFields[cf].MD_PROP_UID == cfUID)

   9:                      {

  10:                          resDS.ResourceCustomFields[cf].FLAG_VALUE = flagValue;

  11:                          return UpdateOneResource(resDS);

  12:                      }

  13:                  }

  14:              }

  15:              else

  16:              {

  17:                  resDS.ResourceCustomFields.AddResourceCustomFieldsRow(AddResourceCustomField(resDS.Resources[0].RES_UID, cfUID, flagValue, resDS));

  18:                  return UpdateOneResource(resDS);

  19:              }   

  20:   

  21:              return false;

  22:          }
