ID under which the TRANSFER delivery system is running owns the file which is
being returned, then the file is secured according to the configured security vector.
To refer to an item or object produced by a previous UOW within the same IPC, you
can use an item handle instead of an item ID or object ID, as noted earlier in this
section.
If the parent specified is a primary external object, the fully qualified file name is
returned for possible error handling; this name includes the node name.
For each matching attachment, the object name, object ID, object type, user values, and
relative position are returned. The OBJECT-TYPE field always contains the value 1,
currently the only object type (GUARDIAN 90 files) supported by the TRANSFER
delivery system.
The objects returned can be referenced in subsequent UOWs within the same IPC
through the use of item handles. For more information about using item handles, see
the discussion of item handles in “Commonly Used Fields,” earlier in this section.
