Examples

The following shows the SPBackupRestoreObjectCollection class being used in a method that will ensure that the component name submitted by a user uniquely identifies a single component to be the top of the tree of components that will be processed by a backup or restore operation. For the full example and a detailed discussion of it, see How to: Programmatically Back Up Content.

private static SPBackupRestoreObject EnsureUniqueValidComponentName(SPBackupRestoreSettings settings, ref Guid operationGUID)
{
    SPBackupRestoreObjectCollection list = SPBackupRestoreConsole.FindItems(operationGUID, settings.IndividualItem);
    SPBackupRestoreObject component = null;

    if (list.Count <= 0)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("There is no component with that name. Run again with a new name.");
        Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to continue.");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
    else if (list.Count > 1)  // The component name specified is ambiguous. Prompt user to be more specific.
    {
        Console.WriteLine("More than one component matches the name you entered.");
        Console.WriteLine("Run again with one of the following:");
        for (int i = 0; i < list.Count; i++)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("\t{0}", list[i].ToString());
        }
        Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to continue.");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
    else
    {
        component = list[0];
    }

    return component;
