Return Property Value

Function:

This tool is used to return values in the defined tool output parameters. This tool overrides the property values of the modelled output parameters with the values of the modelled input parameters. The tool supports mass processing and it supports a file descriptor as output parameter. File descriptors as input parameter are not supported.

Attributes:

Attribute Type Description
Mode [M] Selection Specifies the mode of the tool. The values are whether Property to Property or Property to Structured File Descriptor

(default = Property to Property)

Parameters:

Parameter # I/O Type Description
1[M]   I String/Mass Processing The source property, which value is returned as property value of the target property or is written in the first has property relationship of the target file descriptor.
2..* [O] I String/Mass Processing Further source properties, which values are returned as further property values of the target properties or are written in further has property relationships of the target file descriptor.
1 [M]   O String/Mass Processing /File The target property or a structured file descriptor.
2..* [O] O String/Mass Processing Further target properties. It is not possible to combine a structured file descriptor with further target properties.

Supported scenarios:

By defining a mass processing input and output parameter, the given property values of all given entity contexts are returned by the matching output parameters.

By defining a single processing input and a mass processing output parameter, the given property value is returned for each mass processing context by the matching output parameter.

By defining a single processing input and a single processing output parameter, the given property value is returned by the matching output parameter.

By defining mass processing input parameters and structured file descriptor as an output parameter, a new line with the given property values is written into the file descriptor for every mass processing context.

By defining single processing input parameters and structured file descriptor as an output parameter, one line with the given property values is written into the file descriptor. If single processing input parameters are used in a mass processing action, a new line with the given property values is written into the file descriptor for every mass processing context. The value in every line of the file descriptor is the same for the single processing input parameters.
