Clone Method

Summary

Clones this document in the specified cache.

Syntax

C++/CLI

Python

public LEADDocument Clone( 
   ObjectCache cache, 
   CloneDocumentOptions options 
)

public:  
   LEADDocument^ Clone( 
      ObjectCache^ cache, 
      CloneDocumentOptions^ options 
   )

def Clone(self,options):

Parameters

cache

Destination cache. This value cannot be null.

options

Options to use when cloning the document. This value cannot be null.

Return Value

A brand new document that is an exact copy of this LEADDocument.

Remarks

This method creates a brand new document that is an exact copy of this object and stores it in the cache. A copy of all the document properties and data is created and the resulting object is independent of this document. In other words, the user can delete this LEADDocument after Clone returns and the resulting document returned by the method will be 100% functional.

Clone creates a new document in targetCache and the user can get the cache of the current document using GetCache to clone the document in the same cache. The policy set in CloneDocumentOptions.CachePolicy is used for the items of the newly created document or uses a default policy if the value is null.

The newly created document will use the ID set in CloneDocumentOptions.DocumentId. If this value is null, then the document will use DocumentFactory.NewCacheId to obtain a brand new unique document ID and use it instead. The ID is set in the DocumentId value of the new document.

Example

This example loads a document into the cache and then clones it.
