Page Message

A page message is a text clipboard value, generated by the system and associated with a page. A message can convey error conditions, progress, or exceptions to a user.

In an activity, page messages can be added to a page with the Page-Set-Messages method, and can be removed with the Page-Clear-Messages method.

A clipboard page containing messages generally can't be saved into the database, as the message typically indicates that the page (or a property on it) is invalid. The value of a property may not meet the requirements of a permanent instance of the page's class, because of missing or incorrect data.

Although page messages appear as values on the clipboard, they are not defined through properties.

On the Clipboard tool left panel display, page messages appear in red.

When a workstation user submits an HTML form to PRPC, previous page messages corresponding to the input are deleted (cleared).

The page message text can be the name of a Rule-Message rule. When PRPC renders a page containing a page message, it attempts to find a corresponding Rule-Message key, using the RuleSet list of the current requestor. If no match is found, the resulting text consists of three asterisk characters followed by the message text.
