Parameters

Processing sequences can be defined to:

• Receive input parameters that become variables in the variable pool;

• Return output parameters that a calling processing sequence can use upon return.

The variables representing the parameters can be used like any other variable as input to an Activity or Transformation Map.

NOTE 1: Each Processing Sequence parameter (whether input or output) can only have one occurrence.  That is you cannot use Processing Sequence parameters to receive or return variable lists.

 

NOTE 2: Output Processing Sequence parameters are not supported in all interfaces that LANSA Composer provides for running a Processing Sequence.  Primarily they are intended for when one Processing Sequence directly invokes another Processing Sequence.  In many other interfaces, the values of Processing Sequence output parameters will NOT be directly available to the caller.

 

Parameters are defined in the Parameters tab of the Processing sequence editor window. Refer to Edit Processing Sequence Parameters for more information.
