Overview

Role used to let a value object get the index or the element name of $self or of a node above.

Methods

eval_function

Retrieve the index or the element name. Parameters are

 ( function_name , [ up  ])

function_name: "element" or "index"

up: Optional parameter to indicate how many level to go up before retrieving the index or element name. Each "-" is equivalent to a call to "parent|Config::Model::Node/parent". Can be repeated dashes (""-"", ""- -"", ...) or a dash with a multiplier (""-"", "-2", ...). White spaces are ignored.

compute_string

Perform a similar function as "eval_function" using a string where function names are extracted.

E.g. "compute_string('&element(-)')" calls "eval_function('element','-')"
