Login timestamps difference in xml format (UserStatistics class)

The DifferenceToXmlDoc method returns to an [[XML document the difference in values between one UserStatistics object and another for all Login (also called "Final") statistics with non-zero values (by default) or for all Login statistics including those with zero values.

Syntax

%doc = userStatistics:DifferenceToXmlDoc( ustatOld, [Zeros= boolean], - [AttributeValues= boolean], - [AttributeNames= boolean], - [NamesToLower= boolean])

Syntax terms

%doc A Janus SOAP XmlDoc object variable to contain the listing of the difference values of the Login statistics.
%userStatistics A userStatistics object variable.
ustatOld An older UserStatistics object variable for the same user login as userStatistics.
Zeros This Name-Required argument (Zeros) is a boolean value that indicates whether differences with a zero value should be included in the returned data. Zeros is an optional argument that defaults to False, which results in non-zero values only being included.
AttributeValues This Name-Required argument (AttributeValues) is a boolean value that indicates whether statistic values are to be displayed as text or as value attributes within their XML document elements. For example, <DKRD>1107</DKRD> is text format, and <DKRD value="1107"/> is attribute-value format. The default value is False, which produces text format.
AttributeNames This Name-Required argument (AttributeNames) is a boolean value that indicates whether statistic names are to be displayed within their XML document elements as the element name or as the value of a "name" attribute. For example, <DKRD>1107</DKRD> is element-name format, and the following is name-as-attribute format:

<stat name="DKRD"> 1107 </stat>

The default value is False, which produces element-name format.
NamesToLower This Name-Required argument (NamesToLower) is a boolean value that indicates whether statistic names are to be displayed in lowercase characters. The default value is False.

Examples

  1. The display of non-zero difference statistics below is produced by a sequence of statements like the following:

    %doc is object xmldoc %statStart is object userstatistics %statEnd is object userstatistics . . . %doc = %statEnd:differencetoXmlDoc(%statStart, zeros=false) %doc:print

    The following are sample results:

    <UserStatisticsDifferences time="20080903121750819" userNumber="20" loginTime="20080903115821710" baseTime="20080903121750818"> <SQWR>2</SQWR> <MOVE>2</MOVE> <DKAR>2</DKAR> </UserStatisticsDifferences>

  2. Using the:

    %doc = %statEnd:differencetoXmlDoc(%statStart)

    statement would return all the statistics, including those with a 0 value.
