IValidationRatio.SelectionComparatorData

Syntax

SelectionComparatorData: IValidationSelectionValueList;

Description

The SelectionComparatorData property returns a set of selections determining data used for comparison.

Comments

To set compared series, use the IValidationDetails.SelectionFilter property.

If ComparatorData is not set, data for comparison is determined from the IValidationDetails.SelectionTargetData value.

Example

Executing the example requires that the repository contains a time series database with the TSDB_TARGET identifier containing a validation rule with the VALIDATION identifier. The specified time series database should contain custom attribute with the CITY identifier. The repository should also contain a time series database with the TSDB identifier with the structure identical to the TSDB_TARGET structure.

After executing the example the Compare Observations Relations validation rule is set. Relations of observations between the TSDB_TARGET and TSDB databases are compared.
