Documentum Concepts

DFC code for Logging In:
IDfLoginInfo logininfo = new DfLoginInfo();
logininfo.setUserName("pravar");
logininfo.setPassword("pravar");

IDfClient client = DfClient.getLocalClient();
IDfSession session = client.newSession("myDocBase",logininfo);

Creating a new document:
IDfDocument doc = (IDfDocument) session.newObject("dm_document");

Executing a DQL query using DFC:
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
sb.append("Select * from dm_document where object_name='hello'");
IDfQuery query = new DfQuery();
query.setDQL(sb.toString());
IDfCollection coll = query.execute();
while(coll.next)
{
...
}
coll.close();
