Containers

Containers can hold objects of a specific object type and offer three methods: find, item and length allowing you to list them. By means of API you are not allowed to add any item to the container (e.g. create a new Catalog), you can only retrieve objects from the database.

To get the main containers use the methods provided by Application object (see Key Objects in Valuemation API). In addition, many methods on the lower level in the API hierarchy may also output to a container, like getBOFields (it returns the container of all BOFields the object has).
