Example

This example calls deleteRecord, assigning the returned value to an instance of Result and calling Result.getCode to assign the error code to a variable which is then conditionally checked to determine the code to execute. If the call was not successful, the code calls throwError to display an error dialog.

<syntaxhighlight lang="java" enclose="div">

String accountID = ""; // Some logic to populate accountID variable. Result result = Functions.deleteRecord("ACCOUNT", accountID); int resultCode = result.getCode(); if(resultCode < 0) {

   // Some error happened.
   String msg = "Account could not be deleted";
   Logger.info(msg + ":\n" + result.getMessage(), "Delete");  // Log details
   Functions.throwError(msg + ".");                     // Error dialog

} else {

   // Take other actions on successful addition
   // of the account.

} </syntaxhighlight>
