Performs a test on the association value of the current operation or the current object. The type of test performed depends on the operator specified by the operation attribute.
Operator |
Returns True When... |
---|---|
Associated |
There is an established association for the current object. |
Available |
There is a non-empty association value specified by the current operation. |
Equal |
The association value specified by the current operation is exactly equal to the content of the if association. |
Greater Than |
The association value specified by the current operation is greater than the content of the condition when compared by using the specified comparison mode. |
Less Than |
The association value specified by the current operation is less than the content of the condition when compared by using the specified comparison mode. |
Not Associated |
There is not an established association for the current object. |
Not available |
The association is not available for the current object. |
Not Equal |
The association value specified by the current operation is not equal to the content of the if association. |
Not Greater Than |
Greater Than or Equal would return False. |
Not Less Than |
Less Than or Equal would return False. |
Contains the value defined for the selected operator. The value is used by the condition. Each value supports variable expansion. For more information, see Section 3.6, Variable Selector. The operators that contain the value field are:
Equal
Greater Than
Less Than
Not Equal
Not Greater Than
Not Less Than
The condition has a comparison mode parameter that indicates how a comparison is done.
Mode |
Description |
---|---|
Case Sensitive |
Character-by-character case sensitive comparison. |
Case Insensitive |
Character-by-character case insensitive comparison. |
Regular Expression |
The regular expression matches the entire string. It defaults to case insensitive, but can be changed by an escape in the expression. For more information, see Sun’s Web site. The pattern options CASE_INSENSITIVE, DOTALL, and UNICODE_CASE are used but can be reversed by using the appropriate embedded escapes. |
Source DN |
Compares by using semantics appropriate to the DN format for the source data store. |
Destination DN |
Compares by using semantics appropriate to the DN format for the destination data store. |
Numeric |
Compares numerically. |
Binary |
Compares the binary information. |
The operators that contain the comparison mode parameter are:
Equal
Greater Than
Less Than
Not Equal
Not Greater Than
Not Less Than
This example tests to see if the association is available. When this condition is met, the actions that are defined are executed.
