  • This a Global class method which retrieves or displays a form with a visual representation of a container as a tree. A form with the visual representation of a container if the _lookup parameter was true; otherwise, null.
  • Syntax: client server public static FormRun conView(container containerToShow, [str _caption, boolean _lookup])
    • containerToShow - The container to show in the form.
    • caption - A caption to use on the form; optional.
    • lookup - true to return the form without displaying it; false to display the form and return null.
  • Return: A string of the elements in the container.

Example:

Code:


static void Container_conViewExample(Args _args)
{
    container containerName; // container declaration
    str charHolder;
    int conLength, cnt;
    ;

    // str2Con() function gets values str comma separated and converts to container
    // container initialization with 2 values using str2con()
    containerName = str2con("Technical,Functional, TechnoFunctional", ","); 

    // to view the results in tree form use conView() global function
    conView(containerName);
}

Output:

The above code will produce the following result-


Technical
Functional
TechnoFunctional
