ShowSourceContent

Inside Macintosh: OpenDoc Class Reference /: Part 1 - Classes and Methods / ODLink

ShowSourceContent
The ShowSourceContent method requests the source part of the link to make the source content visible.
void ShowSourceContent ();
DISCUSSION
If your part is the destination of this link, you should call this method in your part's HandleEvent method after calling the ShowLinkDestinationInfo method if the latter method returns true and its output parameter indicates that the user requested to see the source content. You also should call this method in your part's EditInLinkAttempted method if the user elects to find the source of the link.
This method causes the source part's RevealLink method to be called, making the source content visible.
If this method throws an exception, you should display an alert message informing the user that the link source content could not be shown.
