Inserting J code

Inserting J code

For certain template properties, it is possible to insert J code, which will be evaluated when the template is run.

To write J code, the user has two possibilities:

· Simple use of string concatenation, using the “+” operation (for example, Name+"class").

· The use of an anonymous method, using {} to contain more complex code. This is used notably to declare variables and to use statements. In this case, the calculated string must be returned. An example is shown below.

{

String result;

if (ClassOf == Class) {

result.strcat ("Class ", Name);

} else {

result.strcat (Name);

}

return result;

}
