GetActionDefNames

Description

Returns the action names defined in the EntityDef object.

The list of actions is returned in no particular order. You must examine each entry in the array until you find the name of the action you are looking for.

Like the other parts of an EntityDef object, the administrator sets the defined actions using Rational® ClearQuest® Designer. They cannot be set directly from the API.

Syntax

VBScript

entitydef.GetActionDefNames

Perl

$entitydef->GetActionDefNames();

Identifier: Description
entitydef: An EntityDef object corresponding to a record type in a schema.
Return value: For Visual Basic, a Variant containing an Array whose elements are strings. Each String names one action. If the EntityDef object has no actions, the return value is an Empty Variant.
For Perl, a reference to an array of strings.

$sessionObj = $entity->GetSession();
$sessionObj->GetEntityDef($entity->GetEntityDefName());



$sessionObj->OutputDebugString("Action names for "$entityDefObj->GetName());



$nameList = $entityDefObj->GetActionDefNames();

foreach $actionName(@$nameList)
   {
 $sessionObj->OutputDebugString($actionName);
