Functions Glossary¶
This chapter describes the rules syntax and the built-in functions available in Centerprise Data Integrator. The chapter includes:
- Rules Syntax – describes the Rules Syntax in the application. For more information, click Rules Syntax.
- Functions Reference – provides information about the functions available in the application. It also explains how to use these functions with the help of practical examples. For more information, click Functions Reference.
Rules Syntax¶
Rules Syntax¶
The syntax of the Centerprise Data Integrator rules language supports a wide variety of operators and has a large library of built-in functions. You can nest expressions and access the value of data elements throughout the application. You can also access the value of user input in the current data element. The rules in Centerprise Data Integrator support the following data types:
Data types and data type syntax¶
All operands have one of five data types. Centerprise rules and expressions return values that are one of these five types, as described below:
Integer
An integer is a whole number without a fraction. The number 4 is an integer, while 4.5 is not.
Internally, an integer is represented as a 32-bit signed quantity. Allowed values range from 2+31 to 2-31.
Real
The rules engine uses a double precision floating point internally for real numbers with decimals. You must specify constants in digits with a decimal point.
Date
You must specify date constants in the [mm/dd/yyyy] format and enclose them in square brackets. Date is represented internally by a long integer. Accepted dates range from 01/01/1900 to 12/31/9999.
String
Strings represent a set of any arbitrary characters. You must surround string constants by double quotes, for example: ”r;string”.
Boolean
Boolean is an expression that evaluates to TRUE or FALSE. You can use Boolean data types as operands in rules only by creating an expression that returns a Boolean value.
Functions Reference¶
Functions Reference¶
A function is a statement that is executed when it is called from a point in the application. Its format is as follows:
Type name(param1, param2, ...) where:
- Type is the data type of the data returned by the function.
- Name is the identifier that is used to call the function.
Parameter(s) consist(s) of a data type followed by an identifier, for example - double number. Here double is the data type and number is the argument for the function. A comma separates each parameter.
The functions available in Centerprise can be grouped into seven categories. They are:
- Logical
- Date Time
- Conversion
- Math
- String
- General
- Financial
Below is a complete listing of functions ordered alphabetically.
