#DEFINEREADATTR Built-In Function
•
A number indicating the type of the attribute: 0 if it is optional, 1 if it is defaulted, or
2 if it is required.
•
A number indicating the condition of the attribute: 1 if it was inconsistent the last
time attributes were validated, 0 if it was consistent.
•
The name of the attribute whose value is being returned.
•
The (possibly empty) value of the selected attribute.
Consideration
An error code of 2061 can be considered as indicating a successful operation, but if
you are using a loop to read successive attributes, receipt of the “no more attributes”
code should be a signal to terminate the loop.
