Returns the member-name uniqueness setting for a specific level within a dimension.
Syntax
ESS_FUNC_M EssOtlGetLevelNameEx (hOutline, pszDimension, usLevel, pszName, pbNameUnique);
Parameter | Data Type | Description |
---|---|---|
hOutline | ESS_HOUTLINE_T | Outline context handle. |
pszDimension | ESS_STR_T | Name of dimension that contains the generation. |
usLevel | ESS_USHORT_T | Number of level number for which to get a name. Leaf members are level 0. |
pszName | ESS_PSTR_T | Buffer for return of the level of the specified dimension, allocated by the API (output). |
pbNameUnique | ESS_PBOOL_T | The member-name uniqueness setting (output). |
Notes
In C programs, call EssFree() to free the returned buffer.
Level names are not automatically assigned. For this function to return the name, a name must have been assigned. The name can be assigned with EssOtlSetLevelName
This function gets the member-name uniqueness information for the level. If you want to change the member-name uniqueness setting, use EssOtlSetLevelNameEx.
Return Value
Returns 0 if successful; otherwise, returns an error code.
