User Dialog Start

The User Dialog Start element is located in the User Dialog drawer of the process editor palette.

Element Details

The User Dialog Start element is used to map a Start Method (as declared in the Interface Editor) to the process that is started by this element and that implements the Start Method.

The element allows to initialize internal data of the User Dialog from the input parameters of the call and to define return values from process data (to be returned when the User Dialog finishes).

Inscription

Name Tab

The Name Tab is included in the mask of all process elements and contains the name and a description of the element.

Start Tab

This tab is used to define the name and input parameters of the Start Method that is implemented by this element’s process. See Start Tab for a more detailed description.

Result Tab

This tab is used to define the return values of the User Dialog. See Result Tab for a more detailed description.

Result

Return values can be defined according to the declared return types that the mapped Start Method specifies. The table on this tab shows a result variable which has fields for each declared return type (none, if the return type is void).

You can define the returned result values either in the table or by using the IvyScript field below it. The assignments of the table will be executed before the script.

Tip

The defined result object will become available to the caller on the Code component of the invoking User Dialog once the User Dialog has finished.
