SharedUserData

Gets/sets a reference to a dictionary that can be used to store user-definable persistent data for the current Standard Import Routine and all its active extensions.

See also: SharedTempUserData, TempUserData, UserData.

Compatibility

Available as of IDEA version 10.2

Syntax

SharedUserData()

Remark

SharedUserData is a persistent data object (of the same type as UserData) shared by the main Standard Import Routine and all its extensions that are active in a session. This allows the Standard Import Routine and its extensions to share data in a controlled manner.

As of IDEA version 10.2 the UserData collection was transformed into a private Standard Import Routine / Standard Import Routine extension data store that is shared only by the subtasks of a Standard Import Routine or Standard Import Routine extension. Compatibility with already persisted Standard Import Routine sessions is preserved.

Example

Option Explicit 
'SharedUserData 
'Gets/sets a reference to a dictionary that can be used to store user-definable data for the current CIR execution. 
Sub Main() 
Dim element As String 
Dim text As String 
Dim userdata As Object 

	Set userdata = SmartContext.SharedUserData 

	element = "Key" 

	'Add 
	userdata.Add element, "Value" 

	'Contains 
	If userdata.Contains(element) Then 

		'Item 
		text = userdata.Item(element) 
	Else 
		text = "Not contained" 
	End If 

	MsgBox text 

	'Remove 
	userdata.Remove element 

	'Clear 
	userdata.Clear 
End Sub
