Function IdentifierElementRange(identifierName)

IdentifierElementRange

The function IdentifierElementRange returns the range as a set.

IdentifierElementRange(
     identifierName)       ! (input) scalar element parameter

Arguments

identifierName

An element expression in the predefined set AllSymbols specifying the identifier for which the range should be obtained.

Return Value

This function returns the set, as an element in AllSymbols, that is the range of identifierName if it is element valued. If identifierName is not an identifier, an error message is issued. If identifierName is not element valued, the empty element is returned without further warning.

Example

Given the declaration:

Set s_a;
ElementParameter ep_d {
        Range: s_a;
}

the code:

    _ep_p := StringToElement(AllIdentifiers,
            "chapterModel::sectionModelQuery::funcIdentifierElementRange::ep_d",
            create: 0);
    _ep_s := IdentifierElementRange( _ep_p );
    block where single_column_display := 1, listing_number_precision := 6 ;
            display _ep_s ;
    endblock ;

produces in the listing file:

_ep_s := 'chapterModel::sectionModelQuery::funcIdentifierElementRange::s_a' ;
