This code segment can be broken down to explain what it does:
Code:
(paymentAccessor ? paymentAccessor : Data).SetValue("Allocation_Posting_Error__", errorMsg);
Explanation:
-
Conditional (
paymentAccessor ? paymentAccessor : Data
):- This part uses the ternary operator to decide which object to use for the
SetValue
method. - It checks if the variable
paymentAccessor
is truthy (not null or some equivalent "true" value). If it is truthy, the value ofpaymentAccessor
is used; otherwise, the value ofData
is used. In simpler terms:- If
paymentAccessor
is not null,paymentAccessor
is used. - If
paymentAccessor
is null,Data
is used.
- If
- This part uses the ternary operator to decide which object to use for the
-
Call to
.SetValue
:- After deciding which object (
paymentAccessor
orData
) to work with, the code calls the.SetValue
method on that object.
- After deciding which object (
-
Arguments to
.SetValue
:"Allocation_Posting_Error__"
: This is likely the name of a field, property, or key to set on the object.errorMsg
: This is the value that will be assigned to the field, property, or key specified by the string"Allocation_Posting_Error__"
.errorMsg
appears to be a variable or an expression holding the value.
What the code does:
The code sets the value of "Allocation_Posting_Error__"
to errorMsg
on the object determined by the ternary operator (paymentAccessor
if it's valid, otherwise Data
).
In plain terms:
- If
paymentAccessor
is available (not null), it assigns the error message (errorMsg
) to the"Allocation_Posting_Error__"
key/property onpaymentAccessor
. - If
paymentAccessor
is not available, it assigns the error message to the"Allocation_Posting_Error__"
key/property on theData
object.
