Description
Returns
the string ID translated from database ID (DBID). For stateful records,
the string ID is the display name (for example, SAMPL00001234).
The DBID is a unique number assigned to every record
by IBM® Rational® ClearQuest®.
Note: This method does not support stateless record types.
Note: This
method became available in version 2002.05.00. In version 7.0.0.0
the limit on the number of records that can be stored increased so
the range of DBIDs also increased. However,
Rational ClearQuest clients
earlier than version 7.0.0.0 cannot display records with database
identifiers (DBIDs) higher than the former limit. For more information
on DBIDs, see
Working with records
