Each ACTION may be based on a condition. A condition consists of two operands stated as a literal value or a variable. If a condition is defined, the ACTION is executed if the condition result is true. The condition operators supported by XML Gateway are listed in the following table:
| Operator | Description |
|---|---|
| null | Null |
| not null | Not Null |
| = | Equal |
| != | Not Equal |
| < | Less Than |
| > | Greater Than |
| <= | Less Than or Equal To |
| >= | Greater Than or Equal To |
Note: Do not attempt to perform date comparisons unless your dates are stated as Julian dates. Use database functions to compare dates instead.
