Chapter 18 Functions : Overview of Catalog Functions

Overview of Catalog Functions
The functions registry includes various catalogs of functions provided with the product, and each catalog organizes its functions into categories. You can use functions in rule conditions and actions and in rule function bodies.
Some functions work together. For example, the Standard catalog function String.append requires that you first use the function String.createBuffer, to create a buffer to which strings can be appended.
To View the Catalog functions
All catalogs appear in the Catalog Functions view. To open the view navigate to Window > Show View > Other > TIBCO BusinessEvents and select Catalog Functions. The catalog view appears on the right, by default.
To View Documentation for Functions
Documentation for functions is provided in tooltips you can access while using the Catalog Functions view. Hover the mouse over the function name to see the tooltips.
You can also access this documentation using the online functions reference, available in the HTML and Eclipse versions of the documentation, but not in PDF. To access the HTML version of documentation, open this page:
BE_HOME/doc/standard/html/index.htm
Expand the contents panel to Online References > Online References, and on the right select the TIBCO BusinessEvents Functions Reference link.
