Hello,

I think the api implies they all work and will have differing outcomes depending on what you would like to 'sum' or 'count' etc. e.g., Consider the keypath: 'company.people.accounts.totalLiability'.

You can think of the keypath as a tokenized string that is evaluated recursively through the elements toward the end of the string and the @operators are looking for scalar values to iterate over and accumulate. So, for company.people.account.totalLiability where people is the only array, then [EMAIL PROTECTED] would produce the sum as desired. Suppose, however, that each person had multiple accounts. The following would also be valid: [EMAIL PROTECTED]@sum.totalLiability.

The point of this was to not leave the thread with the idea that there can only be one @operator in a keypath.

This is the kind of thing that WOBuilder provided without thought ;-) I was sure it was possible but had a mental blank. Thanks.

with regards,
