ARIS Reporting - How to report object counts?

Hi Lisa,

the method "ObjOccList ( )"  returns all object occurrences in the model. The source code below gives you the count of the objects:

var oObjOccs = oModel.ObjOccList();
var counter = oObjOccs.length;
//.......

NOTE: This source code count all objects, also connectors. If you only want special objects you can use this methode:

 var ospecialObjOccs = oModel.ObjOccListFilter(Constants.OT_FUNC);
var counter = ospecialObjOccs.length;
//......

I hope this will help you.

Regards

Thank you Eva - I am not very familiar with Javascript.  I added the 2 lines but I get a syntax error due to oModel not being defined.  Not sure if I am placing the code in the wrong place or if I need addtional source code to define oModel...?

Actually just being able to have the number of entries in my data table would be ideal...

Yes you must define "oModel". I give you an example below:

var oModels = ArisData.getSelectedModels();
// your source code
//......
counter(oModels);
function counter(oModels){
    for (var i=0;i<oModels.length;i++){
        var oModel = oModels[i];
        var oObjOccs = oModel.ObjOccList();
        var ospecialObjOccs = oModel.ObjOccListFilter(Constants.OT_FUNC);
        var counter = ospecialObjOccs.length;
        //.....       
     } 
}

What exactly do you mean by "entries"?

Hi Lisa,

make sure you join the Reports & Macros group. There you will find additional tutorials and a list of free ARIS reports and macros, that will help you to find an easy way to the ARIS Scripting world:-).
