FUNCTION xpfAddToAggrIfNotInAggr (aggr         :   AGGREGATE OF GENERIC;   
                                  elementValue :   GENERIC)
                                  inserted     :   BOOLEAN;
                

Use this function to add (or append) the given 'elementValue' to the specified aggregate 'aggr' if the aggregate does not have an element with the same value.

TypeNameComment
AGGREGATE OF GENERICaggrId

Any aggregate type except ARRAY.

The aggregate elements data type must be compatible with the data type of the argument 'elementValue'.

If the aggregate is a LIST, the actual 'elementValue' will be appended to the list.

GENERICelementValue

The value to add to the aggregate if the actual value does not exist in the aggregate.

The 'elementValue' can be any of the following data types: sdaiINSTANCE, sdaiINTEGER, sdaiREAL, sdaiSTRING
and "typed value" of sdaiINTEGER, sdaiREAL, sdaiSTRING

Example


FUNCTION get_unique_references(referred: GENERIC): SET OF GENERIC;
     LOCAL
         not_unigue_refs : BAG OF GENERIC;
         unigue_refs : SET OF GENERIC;
     END_LOCAL;
     not_unigue_refs := USEDIN(referred,?);
     unigue_refs := [];
     REPEAT i:=1 TO xpfSizeOf(not_unigue_refs);
          IF xpfAddToAggrIfNotInAggr(unigue_refs, not_unigue_refs[i]) THEN
               xpxPrintf('\n%s inserted', not_unigue_refs[i].name);
