Language for coding builop

Post by mab_arif16 »

Hi

1.When we are writing the per-record code in logic tab of buildops(built type) what language syntax does it accepts .Is it basic or C syntax.

2.What is the significance of properties tab while creating buildops or what is it used for.

3.I was only able to use buildops when I specify the table name or table definitions in the input interface tab,can we create buildop even without specifying the table name.

Thanks
Arif

1) C++

2) A BuildOp becomes a stage that you can use. Stages (and their links) have properties. Since you're designing the stage, you need to specify what properties.

3) Yes, but you must have something there. A reference to a property is the usual alternative.
