IsDuplicate

property IsDuplicate: Boolean read write;

Example​

procedure ScriptEvent(var Value: Variant);
begin
  if Action <> nil then
    if Action.Log <> nil then
      Value := Action.Log.IsDuplicate
    else
      Value := False
  else
    Value := False;
end;

Usage​

IsDuplicate tests for exact Duplicate status; assignments request Duplicate or OK but false does not normally clear the current type.

Additional Technical Info​

IsDuplicate returns true only for exact overall flsDuplicate.

  • Writing true requests StatusType=Duplicate. It succeeds only when Duplicate's ordinal is greater than the current type.
  • Writing false requests StatusType=OK. The monotonic setter does not downgrade Duplicate or any higher type, although the separate Boolean Status is set true by the OK request.

Consequently, after IsDuplicate := False the IsDuplicate getter can still return true. Conversely, setting it true while already Cancelled/Error/Test/Highlight leaves the current type and returns false.

Assignment adds no Duplicate/OK message. Use the property primarily as an exact check; use the deliberate lifecycle/status-reset path when a reset is genuinely required.

Mutation is unsynchronised and can affect duplicate routing/audit.
