xpfValidateWhereRule

 
SYNTAX:
 
xpfValidateWhereRule (instanceId     : GENERIC;
                      whereRuleId    : GENERIC;
                      userOutputFile : STRING)
                      result         : LOGICAL;
 
he xpfValidateWhereRule function invokes the EDMmodelChecker^TM to validate the specified instance against the specified local rule (Where rule). The specified local rule must be defined in the dictionary model (Express schema) that is the underlying schema of the data model that hosts the actual instance, or the local rule must be defined in an EDMruleSchema appropriate to the specified instance.
 
The whereRuleId that uniquely identifies a Where rule in an EDMdatabase^TM can be retrieved by the xpfGetWhereRule operation.
The data model that hosts the specified instance must be open before this operation can be successfully performed.
The expressions logging can be used to log (trace) the execution of the local rule in the EDMexpressVM^TM. The EDMsupervisor^TM and the interactive EDMdebugger^TM
can be used for testing and debugging local rules as well as getting detailed information of a validation process.
 
This function is equivalent to the EDMinterface^TM function edmiValidateWherelRule.
