LocatorByOccurrence

LocatorByOccurrence

The
LocatorByOccurrence
component is used in the
source
property to identify an occurrence of a multiple-occurrence data holder.
For example:
  • An element that can occur multiple times in an XML document
  • A variable that can occur multiple times
The component identifies the occurrence by number. For example, if there are ten occurrences of a data holder, you can use
LocatorByOccurrence
to process the third occurrence.
LocatorByOccurrence
can be used to iterate over the occurrences in a repeating structure such as a
RepeatingGroup
anchor.
The
LocatorByKey
component identifies an occurrence of a multiple-occurrence data holder in the
source
and
target
properties.
Before you use
LocatorByKey
, you must define a
Key
at the global level of the Script. The
Key
specifies the data holders that uniquely identify the occurrence.
The following table describes the properties of the
LocatorByOccurrence
component:
Property
Description
disabled
Determines whether the Script ignores the component and all of the child components. Use this property to test, debug, and modify a Script. You can choose one of the following options:
  • Selected. The Script ignores the component.
  • Cleared. The Script applies the component.
The default is cleared.
occurrence_number
Defines the number of the occurrence.
optional
Determines whether a component failure causes the parent component to fail. You can choose one of the following options:
  • Selected. Component failure does not cause the parent component to fail.
  • Cleared. Component failure causes the parent component to fail.
Default is cleared. For more information about component failure, see Failure Handling.
recurring_element
Defines the data holder that the component identifies.
remark
A user-defined comment that describes the purpose or action of the component.
