A MetaProxyProperty is used to define the import / export characteristics for data written to or read from UBIK® objects. For each MetaProperty of a MetaClass, which participates in the interface, a MetaProxyProperty is related to the corresponding MetaProxy. Among a minimum configuration similar to a MetaProperty, some important additional configuration must be done on the Relation data between the MetaProxy and MetaProxyProperty (SYSREL METAPROXY PROPERTY).
Configuration on Relation data
Property | Description | Type |
---|---|---|
Calculated Value | Defines the exported/import value as a calculated one. | Integer (Drop down) |
IsExternalPrimaryKey | Defines the property as an external primary key. | Boolean |
ImportTarget - Index | Index value of the target property (if this property uses index values at all, default = -1). | Integer |
ImportTarget - PropertyName | Reference to the target MetaProperty object. | Guid (Drop down) |
Update Type | Defines the Proxy Update Type | Integer (Drop down) |
Reference MetaProxyProperty
It is possible to define a Reference for a MetaProxyProperty. If the targeted Type is a MetaProxy object the MetaProxyProperty is defined as External Link Property (See usage of external primary key).
If the target of the import is a GUID Property the target object of the refered Proxy Instance will be set as target value.
Multilanguage is not supported for MetaProxyProperties, separate index values have to be used instead! |
