getPrefix Function [AX 2012]

Updated: December 10, 2009

Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Feature Pack, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

Retrieves the current execution prefix after successive calls to the setPrefix function.

Copy 

str getPrefix()

The current execution prefix.

The prefix mechanism makes it more straightforward to write precise error messages about the transactions performed by an application. Because it creates a hierarchical display in the Infolog, it can be easier to determine from where each error came.

X++
Copy 
static void getPrefixExample(Args _arg)
{
    ;
    setPrefix("Prefix");
    setPrefix("Another prefix");
    print getPrefix();
    pause;
}
