Searching for a frmework or Library for managing documentsa
-
Hi, we have a .Net based application (C#, VB) and we want to integrate basic document managment functions for the documents we create in our application. We need to provide some functions for the users of our appication to manage the documents created within our documentation. We don't want to have a stand alone DMS, we rather like to integrate a library/framework with basic structure and functions we can use in our code. Like versioning, Check-In/Out mechanism. I searched via google for quite a time but I have not found something. Maybe I don't use the best keywords. I hope anyone knows a library on the market. Thanks a lot! :-D Edited: given more Informations and correct typing

Thanks for your suggestion. I think you missunderstood my question, so I edited my question to make it more clear. We do not need to manage our own source code, we use mercurial for it. I am searching for a DLL with we include in our c#/vb project. We need to link the managed documents to data in the customerdatabase. We need to have meta-data /attributes stored with the document and a right managment within, also searching mechanism.

You're looking for an awfull lot of functionality, I doubt that you can simply add a reference and be done with it. Your best bet would be to Google for an "open source DMS", and to modify it to suit your requirements.

Like versioning, Check-In/Out mechanism.Based on this and your other posts this isn't going to be easy. So far you have asked for - Check in /out - Versioning - Rights management - Document attributes, presumably associated with a user. That would all need to come from somewhere. And it would need to be stored some where. As per the other request a source control system would handle the first two requirements. But you would need to handle the second two yourself. And I expect that you have other unstated requirements as well. Overall it suggests that you do in fact want a DMS.

Not sure why it needs to be open source and modified, as far as I read the requirements are pretty basic. Versioning and check-in/out appears to be all that's needed. But I do agree that a DMS is probably the way to go and don't quite understand why the OP has decided a priori that they don't want that. After all, document management is the functionality they need...??
