Multiple objects in isobject()

Postby paues » Fri May 10, 2013 2:23 am

It would be great if isobject() could be used to check for the existence of several objects at once. Since object name never (?) contain spaces the user would merely enter the object names seperated by space, like so:

Code: Select all

@isobject("series01 series02 alpha01 string01")

It would also be great if it was possible to reference object across containers and pages using the same syntax as in the copy command:

Code: Select all

@isobject("::db::series01")
@isobject("myWf::myPage\series01")

Probably better off using wlookup or wquery.
