Back Forward Atlas — Standard properties for search results (Code-Pega-List class)

About Property rules

At runtime, five methods (Obj-Browse, Obj-Filter, Obj-List, Obj-List-View, and RDB-List), list view rules, and summary view rules use a page of the class Code-Pega-List class as a source of search criteria and to hold output. Typically, such pages are named Results, pyQueryResultPage, or pyViewLookupList. Search results (which support rows of report output) are stored as pages in the pxResults() property, a Page List.

Although Code-Pega-List is a concrete class, pages of this class exist only on the clipboard. They are never saved to the PegaRULES database.

This table identifies several properties on such pages, in alphabetical order ignoring the first two characters of the name. Properties marked dotwith may hold input parameters for the search; other properties marked with (Read-only) contain outputs from the search.
