I am attempting to optimize the speed of my process flows and my code in general and have therefore decided to use direct adresseing on labels as much as possible. I have created macros to adress labels on my objects by index rather by name, but when I try to do the same thing on a Process Flow token it fails.
Am I correct in assuming that getlabel cannot use the labels index when accessing it on a token? Why is that?
getlabel(token, numeric_Label_Index); vs. getlabel(token, "MyLabel");
Martin,
The answer is both yes and no. If you are using getlabel() on a flowitem, resource, or task executer then the answer is "yes". If you are using it on a token then the answer is "no". I do not know the reason for this but I would guess that it is do to how tokens access labels. The parent/child relationship that tokens are capable of introduces a number of complications that would make the numeric reference for a label unreliable.
I hope this clears things up for you,
Brandon
