A representative for one or more objects that have been marked for deletion. An object marked for deletion is a recoverable object, that is, an object that still exists in the object store database and can be restored.

The recoverable objects represented by a ICmRecoveryItem object consist of an object that was originally marked for deletion by a user, plus any objects referenced by object-valued properties (OVPs) of the original object. The referenced objects are marked for deletion by a cascade-delete operation performed by the server.

In general, recoverable objects cannot be accessed directly; they can only be accessed through the ICmRecoveryItem objects that represent them. A set of recovery items can be retrieved from a ICmRecoveryBin object. By default, a recovery item inherits its permissions from the ICmRecoveryBin object that contains it.

A user can invoke either a recovery method or a delete method on a ICmRecoveryItem object. The recovery operation restores the original object that was marked for deletion and any cascade-deleted objects referenced by OVPs of the original object. The delete method, inherited from IIndependentlyPersistableObject, deletes the original object and any cascade-deleted objects. The delete method functions as a purge operation, in the sense that the deleted objects are removed them from the object store database and cannot be restored.
