public:
static IntPtr LlStgsysStorageOpen( 
   String^ filename,
   String^ tempPath,
   bool readOnly,
   bool oneJobTranslation
) 

Parameters

filename

The name of the project or preview (List & Label does not care about the extension as it will always be set to .LL)

tempPath

a temporary path (can be null or empty)

readOnly

Value	Meaning
true	The file will be opened in read-only mode.
false	The file can be written to

oneJobTranslation

Value	Meaning
true	the Stgsys API takes care about multiple jobs and shows you all data as one job.
false	You can (and must!) manage multiple jobs yourself

Return Value

If you use a path for temporary data, this will be used as directory of the preview files, else the path of the project file name will be used. This convention is compatible with the calls to LlPrint(<Project file>) and LlPreviewSetTempPath(<Temporary Path>). Note that the functions LlStgsysAppend and LlStgsysSetPageOptionString need the file to be opened with bReadOnly = false! oneJobTranslation = true is handy if you don??t want to care about multiple jobs. If you want to show your users whether the file contains multiple jobs, you need to set this to false and manage a list of jobs with their properties.
