DXL script results in error "unknown Object attribute"

Troubleshooting


Problem

Attempts to run a DXL script in IBM Rational DOORS to retrieve object number information results in error "unknown Object attribute".

Symptom

DXL halted with run-time error:

-R-E- DXL: <Line:18> unknown Object attribute (Object Number)
  -I- DXL: execution halted

Cause

Can not retrieve object number information from module data from DXL script

Resolving The Problem

Update the script to use the correct method to determine the object's number by using the following number perm:

number
Declaration string number(Object o)


Operation returns the hierarchical object number (for example 2.1.1-0.1) of Object o as a string.
