Documentation

Definition

Contains the definition of a sequence of transformations.

Use

To define a sequence of transformations, you assign a predecessor to a transformation. The system performs a transformation that has a predecessor only if the predecessor transformation was unsuccessful, meaning that the return parameter "e_ok" was equal to ' '. The system processes all transformations in the order specified in "Sequence of the Transformation Call-Up". This means that it does not make sense for a transformation to refer to a predecessor with a higher sequence. The system only checks (for every transformation with a predecessor) whether the predecessor was performed with a positive result.

Dependencies

Example

You can determine a material in several ways from given input data. The system implements every determination method in a separate method. The methods are specified in a sequence that corresponds to their hierarchy, whereby each method refers to its respective predecessor.
