ISTIME Function (Variant)
Indicates whether a C/AL variant contains a Time variable.
Syntax
Ok := Variant.ISTIME
Parameters
Variant
Type: Variant
Property Value/Return Value
Type: Boolean
true if the C/AL variant contains a Time variable; otherwise, false.
Example
The following example determines whether a C/AL variant contains a time variable. The code initializes the MyTime variable with a Time value. The MyTime variable is assigned to the variant variable that is named MyVariant. The ISTIME function determines whether the variant contains a Time variable and stores the return value in the varResult variable. In this case, the variant contains a Time variable so Yes is returned and displayed in a message box. The ISCODE Function (Variant) determines whether the variant contains a Code variable. The return value is No because the variant does not contain a code. This example requires that you create the following variables and text constants in the C/AL Globals window.
| Variable name | DataType |
|---|---|
| MyTime | Time |
| MyVariant | Variant |
| varResult | Boolean |
| Text constant name | Enu value |
|---|---|
| Text000 | Does the variant >%1< contain a time variable? %2. |
| Text001 | Does the variant >%1< contain a code variable? %2. |
MyTime := TIME;
MyVariant := MyTime;
varResult := MyVariant.ISTIME;
MESSAGE(Text000,MyVariant,varResult);
varResult := MyVariant.ISCODE;
MESSAGE(Text001,MyVariant,varResult);
