Description

Assigns a value to a member of an object.

Type conversion is achieved by assigning to a field or variable of the intended type.
The target of the assignment must be a compatible type. For objects, compatible means that the two objects share a common ancestor.

Bungee Logic provides an implicit string conversion for primitives (i.e., primitives are automatically converted to string). No other conversions are presently supported for primitives.

Syntax

lvalue = rvalue;

Where:

lvalue Is a site designating the L Value for the assignment.

rvalue Is a site designating the R Value for the assignment.

Logic

This code below is a simple assignment of a primitive to a variable.

StopIterating = true;

In this assignment statement below, the Copy Action property has been set to Copy by Value.

StopIterating = Copy(TrueField);

Error Handling

The following assignmets will generate an error:

Assignment of primitive values to complex variables and members
Assignment of complex values to primitive variables and members
Assignment of primitives or complex objects onto members that are Collections
Assignment of NULL on to a primitive variable or member

Intrinsics

-None-

Properties

Copy Action — Whether the assignment will be made through copying by value or by reference.
From — The source (right) value of the assignement statement.
To — The destitnation (left) value of the assignment statement.

Tab Title Bar

Comment Out — Comments out the entire section of code.
