Finding Loops
After an EDILightWeightDocument is initialized by the EDIValidator component, data is stored in a logical structure corresponding to the implementation guides and loops can be retrieved.
Example – Getting a Loop
let doc = ediValidator.EDILightWeightDocument;
//Get the Interchange Header loop
let interchange = doc.MainSection.getLoop(“INTERCHANGE HEADER”);
Example – Getting More Than One Loop
//Get all the 2000B loops in ‘parentLoop’
let all2000BLoops = parentLoop.getLoops(“2000B”);
Example – Drilling To Get Loops
//Get all the 2000B loops in loop 2000A of ‘parentLoop’
let all2000BLoops = parentLoop.getLoops(“2000A/2000B”);
Notice the forward slash (‘/’) operator is used to drill into loops. Use as many forward slashes as required to get to the loop(s) required.
Example
let loop2010AA =
doc.MainSection.getLoop(“INTERCHANGE HEADER/FUNCTIONAL GROUP/ST HEADER/2000A/2010AA”);
let all2010AALoops =
doc.MainSection.getLoops(“INTERCHANGE HEADER/FUNCTIONAL GROUP/ST HEADER/2000A/2010AA”);
