Syntax

Attribute(Element: Integer; AttributeKey: Integer): Variant;

Executing the example requires that the repository contains an MDM dictionary with the EXP_DICT identifier.

Add links to the Metabase, Rds system assemblies.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    Dict: IRdsDictionary;
    DictInst: IRdsDictionaryInstance;
    Elements: IRdsDictionaryElements;
    Attrs: IRdsAttributes;
    i, El, AttrKey: Integer;
Begin
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    Dict := MB.ItemById("EXP_DICT").Bind As IRdsDictionary;
    Attrs := Dict.Attributes;
    AttrKey := Attrs.Name.Key; // attribute key
    DictInst := Dict.Open(Null);
    Elements := DictInst.Elements;
    For i := 0 To Elements.RootItem.ChildrenCount - 1 Do
        El := Elements.Child(Elements.Root, i);
        Debug.WriteLine(Elements.Attribute(El, AttrKey));
    End For;
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example, value of the Name attribute is displayed in the development environment console for all dictionary root elements.
