Option and Choices
Load the com.ptc.windchill.option.model.Option object with the option subtypes and the associated choices in the Windchill database using the Windchill loader.
This method allows you to load all choices that are associated with a given option as part of the option loading process. As the option is loaded, the system creates the first iteration of the option (for example, as A.1) and checks it out. The sequence in which the choices are specified in the load file is the default order in which they are displayed in the system. When, for example, a load file defines Choice A2 for Option A, Choice B1 for Option B, and Choice A1 for Option A, the default order of the options is Option A followed by Option B, where the choices for Option A are ordered as Choice A2 followed by Choice A1. Once all associated choices are loaded, the option is checked in (for example, as A.2).
* 
For proper loading of options and choices, make sure all open tags have the corresponding closing tags.

Example of Loading Boolean Option and Choices
* 
When not auto creating boolean choices (csvautoCreateBooleanChoices = false), two choices must be specified in the load file to represent True and False. The name of the choices (csvname) must contain the name of the option appended by _TRUE and _FALSE. For example, <OptionName>_TRUE and <OptionName>_FALSE, as specified in the following example.
<csvBeginOption handler="com.ptc.windchill.option.load.Loader.beginOption">
<csvtypedef>com.ptc.windchill.option.DesignOption</csvtypedef>
<csvname>IsDeluxeTrim</csvname>
<csvoptionDataType>BOOLEAN</csvoptionDataType>
