Boolean input

Use the following procedure to define an Operator Dialog activity in the BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio application that prompts the operator for a true or false value when the process runs in the BMC Atrium Orchestrator Operator Control Panel application.

The Boolean input type prompts the operator to indicate with a check box a value of true or false. This value is assigned to a specified context item. From the Properties tab of the Operator Dialog Property Panel, use the following steps to add a Boolean input.

To add Boolean input to an Operator Dialog activity

  1. Type the value for the optional Header and Description fields; then click the Add button.
    A new row will be created in the Inputs table. The default Type is String.
  2. After you select the row and the field in the Type column, click Boolean.
  3. Click the field in the Label column.

  4. Type the label for this input; then press Enter.

    This label will be displayed to the operator during execution.

  5. To set the default value to true, select the check box in the Specialized Definition column.
    The input value must be mapped to a context item.
  6. Click the field in the Context column.
  7. Select the context item to which this input value will be mapped.
    See the Context Browser section for details on this feature.
  8. Use steps 1 - 7 to create additional boolean inputs.
  9. When you have added all inputs, click OK.

During testing of the Operator process in BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio, if you choose Simulate Operator Control Panel when launching the test, the Operator Dialog activity window is displayed.
