A number of new Alfabet parameters are now available for use in queries executed on the Alfabet database:
@BASES returns the REFSTR values of all objects currently listed in a data workbench. @BASES can be used in IN statements of queries defined for configured reports assigned to a data workbench report group. The parameter requires that the Apply to Class attribute of the configured report is not set. It compares a single REFSTR to the list of REFSTR values. Therefore it cannot be used with reference array properties in WHERE statements of Alfabet query language.
@CURRENT_THEME: Returns the UI theme the user currently selected for display of the user interface. This is for future use in configured reports to substitute the concept of color rules with coloring responding to customer themes.
@ALIASNAME: Returns the name of the server alias used for the Alfabet database connection to execute the query.
@ALIASCAPTION: Returns the caption of the server alias used for the Alfabet database connection to execute the query.
The Alfabet instruction LinkAssignment has a new target type DataWorkbench . For data workbenches, filters can be set in the instruction in the same way as they are already available for configured reports. The query of the data workbench must then be defined to include WHERE statements with parameter definitions.
