IAlgorithmParamValue.Name

Syntax

Name: String;

Description

The Name property determines a parameter name.

Example

Executing the example requires that the repository contains a calculation algorithm with the ALGORITHM identifier. The calculation algorithm should contain at least one parameter.

Add links to the Algo, Metabase, and Transform system assemblies. Add links to the assemblies required for working with calculation algorithms.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    MObj: IMetabaseObjectDescriptor;
    Algo: ICalcObject;
    CalcAlgo: ICalcAlgorithm;
    ParamValues: IAlgorithmParameterValues;
    ValueList: IAlgorithmParamValueList;
    Param: IAlgorithmParamValue;
    ParamType: String;
Begin
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    // Get calculation algorithm
    MObj := MB.ItemById("ALGORITHM");
    Algo := CalcObjectFactory.CreateCalcObject(MObj, True);
    CalcAlgo := Algo As ICalcAlgorithm;
    // Get collection of calculation algorithm parameters
    ParamValues := CalcAlgo.ParamValues;
    ValueList := ParamValues.Values;
    // Get the first parameter and display its settings in the console
    Param := ValueList.Item(0);
    Debug.WriteLine("Name: " + Param.Name + '(' + Param.Id + ')');
    Debug.Indent;
    Select Case Param.ParamType As Integer
        Case 5: ParamType := "Dictionary element selection";
        Case 7: ParamType := "Alternative hierarchy";
    End Select;
    Debug.WriteLine("Parameter type: " + ParamType);
    Debug.WriteLine("Dictionary: " + Param.LinkedObject.Name);
    If Param.ParamType = TsParamType.Selection Then
        Debug.WriteLine("Number of elements selected by default: " + (Param.Value As IDimSelection).SelectedCount.ToString);
    Elseif Param.ParamType = TsParamType.Hierarchy Then
        Debug.WriteLine("Alternative hierarchy key: " + Param.Value);
    End If;
    Debug.Unindent;
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example the console displays settings of the first parameter:

Name: Planning version

Identifier: PLANNING_VERSION

Parameter type: Dictionary elements selection

Dictionary: Planning versions

The number of elements selected by default: 1
