                          value                         : GENERIC;

Function to "emulate" an IF-THEN-ELSEIF statement. The function has variable number of arguments, i.e., it can be invoked with a minimum of 2 arguments and a maximum of 20 arguments and the number of arguments must be an even number.

This operation works as follows:

FOR each given condition argument DO
   IF (condition = TRUE) THEN
      RETURN(related value argument);
   END_IF;
END_FOR;
RETURN(?);

Arguments

1	Type	Name	Comment
2	LOGICAL	condition1 - condition10	A logical value. When the logical value has the value TRUE the related "value" argument will be returned from the xpfIfThenElseIf() operation
3	GENERIC	value1 - value10	Any legal value that will be returned from the xpfIfThenElseIf() operation when the related "condition" argument has the value TRUE.

Return Value

Type	Name	Comment
GENERIC	value	The function returns one of the "value" arguments or INDETERMINATE (?). Exception handling should be used to handle error conditions in the actual xpfIfThenElseIf() operation.
