void Activate(Object obj, int depth)

Activates all members on a stored object to the specified depth.

See Db4objects.Db4o.Config.ICommonConfiguration.ActivationDepth for an explanation why activation is necessary.

Calling this method activates a graph of persistent objects in memory. Only deactivated objects in the graph will be touched: Their fields will be loaded from the database. When called it starts from the given object, traverses all member objects and activates them up to the given depth. The depth parameter is the distance in "field hops" (object.field.field) away from the root object. The nodes at 'depth' level away from the root (for a depth of 3: object.member.member) will be instantiated but not populated with data. Its fields will be null. The activation depth of individual classes can be overruled with the methods Db4objects.Db4o.Config.IObjectClass.MaximumActivationDepth(System.Int32) and Db4objects.Db4o.Config.IObjectClass.MinimumActivationDepth(System.Int32) in the Db4objects.Db4o.Config.IObjectClass-interface.
