SUPPLY

Short Reference

Other versions: 7.31 | 7.40 | 7.54

Obsolete Syntax

SUPPLY key1 = f1 key2 = f2 ... TO CONTEXT context_ref.

Effect

This statement fills the key fields key1 key2 ... of a context instance with the values of data objects f1 f2 .... For context_ref, you must specify a data object that points to a context instance (see CONTEXTS). For key1 key2 ..., you can specify the names of key fields of the respective context. For f1 f2 ..., you must specify data objects whose data type is suited for the respective key field key1 key2 ....

The SUPPLY statement overwrites only the specified key fields with new values. If not all key fields are specified, the previous values are kept. The values of all fields of the context instance derived from a changed key field are rendered invalid by the SUPPLY statement.
