4.6c: Converting multiline to single container elements

[Mike Pokraka]

Hi Kjetil,

In practice it generally works, but theoretically it should not be relied
upon, just as we've usually done with a SELECT SINGLE statement :-)

In many scenarios the item in question is irrelevant. My current for e.g.
is a multiline attribute which I have to process one by one in a loop. The
process removes the item from the object. Annoyingly I end up having to
code attributes for 'Foos' and 'SingleFoo' because I cannot bind from
'Foos' to 'Foo' in my task.

To answer your question, in 620-640 you can bind and assign multi to
single. In NW04s we finally have indexed access.

Cheers,
Mike

the first line of the multiline element will always be used.

Damn those release changes! ;-)

Greetings,

It's been a while since I played with 4.6, so I'm wondering
