IDataDictionary GetBoolean Method (String, Boolean)C# API
Returns a boolean value held in the dictionary, or the defaultValue if the key cannot be found.

Namespace: Facilita.Fc.Runtime
Assembly: fc_clr (in fc_clr.dll) Version: 9.5.8.37
Syntax

bool GetBoolean(
	string key,
	bool defaultValue
)

Parameters

key
Type: System String
The key to be looked up in the dictionary.
defaultValue
Type: System Boolean
The value to return if the key is not present in the dictionary.

Return Value

A boolean value held in the dictionary, or defaultValue if the key could not be found.
Remarks

Default data warning:

When called from a VU script, if the defaultValue is returned then a message is also written to the VU Event Log. This feature helps highlight problems with data bindings when data is expected to come from a data source, but the default value is returned instead.

An example of the message entry in the Event Log:
TypeIDInfo
MessageDefault data warningNo value found for key: myBool, using default value instead: true

To turn this feature off, go to the Test view in eggPlant Performance Studio and uncheck the option "Enable default data warnings" on the Data tab.
Examples

The following example demonstrates getting a boolean from the dictionary.
bool retry = GetBoolean("retryLogon", true);
