The Evaluate component can support dotted identifiers for:

Table names as part of the identifier name

For example:

VDATA.Q1 + VDATA.RATING[{DINOSAUR}].GRID1

Note While the dot character can appear as part of delimited identifiers, the dot character has special meaning as part of regular identifiers.

Function calls

The dot character can be used to make function calls for named identifiers. The dot in this instance is interpreted as a bound identifier, followed by a function. Some examples are shown in the following table.

Dotted function call	Resolved function call
Q1.AnswerCount()	AnswerCount(Q1)
age.ContainsAny( {1,2,5})	ContainsAny(age, {1,2,5})
VDATA.RATING[{FISH}].GRID1.AnswerCount()	AnswerCount(VDATA.RATING[{FISH}].GRID1)

Function calls can be made using either convention. The parser also supports a mix of the function call conventions.

Function call	Resolved function call
Q1.Find(Q2.Left(3))	Find(Q1, Left(Q2, 3))
