Specification of medini specific functions (e.g. getProfilePropertyValue())

Question

Where are detailed specifications of medini specific functions available such as getProfilePropertyValue() ?

I would expect to see such information in medini™ analyze
Scripting and API Documentation but could not find.

The following statement is based on the example in "medini™ analyze Metamodel Documentation" (i.e. the usage of getProfilePropertyValue(...)->first().oclIsUndefined() ), but it returns the error message Unknown profile property "user_category" if the profile property is not defined and in some cases returns NO even if it's defined, and I wanted to know the details of the function...

self.element.oclAsType(safetyModel::Failure).effects->iterate(e; acc:String='' |
	if e.oclAsType(safetyModel::Failure).getProfilePropertyValue('user_category')->first().oclIsUndefined()
	then
		acc.concat('NO | ')
	else
		acc.concat('YES | ')
	endif
)

Yes, I meant Javascript (and didn't realize Toru was talking about OCL initially), and your last answer is what I was looking for. Thanks, Jan!

Nils,

if you want to access the property with a dynamic name, you may use the [] notation, basically:

var a = object.user_foo;

var b = object["user_foo"];

var name = "user_foo";
var c = object[name];

are all equivalent.

Happy Scripting

Hi Nils,

the above script was about OCL, I guess you talk about JS now? In JS you in principle do not need that method because you can access profile properties directly with . notation.

Or am I misunderstanding your issue?
