Unknown macro: {scrollbar}

Parameters:

String

parameterName

Result:

org.pentaho.core.runtime.IActionParameter

 

Returns the IActionParameter that represents an input. Using this the IActionParameter object you can:

  • Check to see if a prompt is already pending for this input.
  • Find out if the input value has a list of valid values.
  • Find out if the input value has been specified.
  • Find out if the input has a default value.
  • Find out the type of the input.
  • Find out the value of the input.

It is important to call isDefinedInput() or getInputNames() before asking for access to an output as an error will occur if you ask for an output that has not been defined in the action sequence.
