Attribute string documentation

Have you used PL/SQL software? There you can browse all database objects and view documentation and code for each API and so on. It’s Oracle standard.

I could provide more information and examples if needed.

If your requirement is to check the attribute string values, when the call does not show in the debugger, you may have to add traces to the database level. For this, you can use TRACE_SYS.MESSAGE function and the output will be added to the trace tab of the debugger.

I recently had to use this:
archive_api.New_Client_Report(result_key_ OUT NUMBER,
                            report_attr_       IN VARCHAR2,
                            parameter_attr_    IN VARCHAR2,
                            distribution_list_ IN VARCHAR2,
                            print_attr_        IN VARCHAR2)

That seemed easy enough, except that I could not find any information about, e.g. report_attr_. I had to read the code to figure out that it most contain 'printer_id'.

Is there not any written documentation or function call I can do. Like:

get_attr_info('archive_api.New_Client_Report', 'report_attr_') 

?

@Hans Andersen - Could you please let us know whether you have an attribute string with you or are you gonna create attribute string to insert to the function? I’ m little bit confused. Could you be more specific?

@Avindu Hendawitharana of course.

I know I have to use archive_api.New_Client_Report, but I do not have any attribute strings. It comes from this discussion.

@dsj tells me the what to do, but not what to put in the attribute strings.

I hope I made it clearer?

@Hans Andersen  - Have you checked in the ifs documentation?  Use internet explorer and enter the below URL and chose the application version you want the details.

https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/Foundation1/

After that in the search enter the relevant API. It will output the relevant methods and you can get an idea from there. See the screenshot below.

Hope this would do your job

Thanks... Someday, someone is going to get drunk.
