Wow...ask a tough one....ok....took me FOREVER to figure out
Qualifiers....but here is basically what you need to do.  
 
A QualifierInfo object has three main parts, LeftOperand, Operation, and
RightOperand.  To explain these parts I will give you an example
 
('Status' = "Fixed") AND ('Create Date' < $DATE$)
 
Ok, if that is your QualifierInfo object, here are your pieces
 
LeftOperand = ('Status' = "Fixed")
Operation = AND
RightOperand = ('Create Date' < $DATE$)
 
So, what I have done in several programs now is to write an iterative
subroutine, if you check the operation to determine if it is a relational
operation (< > = != etc).  If it's not, I throw RightOperand back into the
sub till it is, If it is then you know you are down to a single operand, and
then you can parse the field/value on left and right for what you want to
check/test for.
 
Please let me know if this helps any....it's still a bit fuzzy in my head,
but I understand it well enough as it is to do what I need to do.

Subject: Java API for ARS - How to obtain a Run-If line from an Active Link
(for example)

Hi ARSListers, 

 

I have been looking at the Java API but am stumped by Qualifiers. 

 

String name1 = "Demo";

String swd = "etno";

String sname = "dclha002";

Integer tcpport = 8001;

Integer rpcnum = 0;

 

 

ARServerUser context=new ARServerUser(name1,swd,"",sname, tcpport);

// Check and verify user login:

 try {

       // If User Pass/Acct name is wrong, this gens an error.

       context.login();

 

     } catch( ARException e ) {

       System.out.println( "Login Error : " + " Possible Bad password or
acct name. " );

       //This return ends all further processing and exits...

        return;

     }

List<ActiveLink> aLinkObjs=context.getListActiveLinkObjects("AST:WorkLog");

int x = 0;

for (int i = 0; i < aLinkObjs.size(); i++) {

    System.out.format("\n%20s%60s\n\n", i, aLinkObjs.get(i).getName());

    //ActiveLink alink = aLinkObjs.get(x);

    

            try{

                QualifierInfo encryptedQual =
aLinkObjs.get(i).getQualifier();

                System.out.println(encryptedQual.toString() );

                RelationalOperationInfo qualEnglish =
encryptedQual.getRelationalOperationInfo();

                

                System.out.println("Qual : "+ qualEnglish.toString());

            } catch (Exception e){

                System.out.println("no Qualification\n");

            }

 

    

    if (aLinkObjs.get(i).toString().contentEquals("ASI:AWL:Close_100") ) {

        x = i ;

       // System.out.println(x);

    }

}

context.logout();

}

 

I can get the names of the Active links associated with the named form (in
this example I used AST:WorkLog)

But I cannot seem to decode the Qualifier. All I get from the output is :-

 

                   1
SHR:SHR:Help_003_CheckOnlineHelpInstall_E

 

[Operation=4,Operand Left=[Operation=2,Operand Left=[Operand
Type=[type=2],Operand=$LASTCOUNT$],Operand Right=[Operand
Type=[type=2],Operand=0]],Operand Right=<null>]

Qual : [Operation=2,Operand Left=[Operand
Type=[type=2],Operand=$LASTCOUNT$],Operand Right=[Operand
Type=[type=2],Operand=0]]

I just need some help in decoding the Qualifier. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance!!
