Reading worflow container element

[Mark Pyc]

If you want to access an attribute you want SWC_GET_PROPERTY.

If it's within the same object you use the object reference 'Self'.
SWC_GET_PROPERTY self 'AttributeName' lv_somewheretokeepit.

If it's within some other code it's more like
SWC_GET_PROPERTY lo_objref 'AttributeName' lv_somewheretokeepit.

Or are you trying to read the Workflow container into an object attribute?? 
If this is the case it probably doesn't make sense. Virtual attributes have 
to be calculatable from database accesses and you must be able to derive the 
data from the object key (remember there is no data passing into attribute 
logic) or other attributes. Certainly you can't set an object attribute 
externally (not that you ever should try to in OO design) - it must set it's 
own value.

Don't know if that makes any sense. Maybe try explaining further what it is 
you're trying to do, possibly even why.

Have fun,
Mark

Hello,

Did someone already tried to read a workflow container from a virtual
attribute?
I tried the standard way:
SWC_GET_ELEMENT CONTAINER 'element' object-attribute.
but in this case the container is empty.

Any idea?

Cheers
