Sample

The following sample shows you how to check that the object has no children in IN_WORK maturity state.

/*The following rule is an example of what can be done*/

/* ----------------- */
/*      Declare      */
/* ----------------- */
let ListInstance (List)
let ListInstanceSize (Integer)
let FilterList (List)
let FilterListSize (Integer)


/* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
/*    By default, we validate the operation  */
/* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
Validation = true

/* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
/*    If the object has at least one child, the clone is not allowed  */
/* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
ListInstance = ThisObject.Children
ListInstanceSize = ListInstance.Size()
if ( ListInstanceSize > 0 )
{
                /* ------------------------------------- */
                /*    Check Children's maturity state    */
                /*                                       */
                /*  We first navigate from the instances */
                /*  to their references                  */
                /* ------------------------------------- */
                FilterList = ListInstance.Extract("VPMInstance", "VPMReference", "y = x.Children.GetItem(1)")
                     .Filter("VPMReference", "x.current == \"IN_WORK\" ")
                FilterListSize = FilterList.Size()
}
