fetAudit

fetAudit = 3

Example​

function IsIntendedAuditEvent(const Event: TvxFileEventType): Boolean;
begin
  // Classification inside script is safe; do not pass this value to native APIs.
  Result := Event = fetAudit;
end;

Usage​

Do not assign fetAudit to a Velox file-event property in the current version. Velox interprets its numeric value as fetDownload, so the recorded event can be wrong.

Additional Technical Info​

fetAudit is script ordinal 3 of TvxFileEventType. Its intended meaning is that a file has been moved to/audited in its audit location. Native Velox assigns native fetAudit after a successful audit move and can update the logged destination filename.

Current scripting defect: native TvxFileEventType inserts fetDownload at ordinal 3, but the script importer omits it. Passing script fetAudit(3) through LogFileEvent, TvxFileCon.FileEvent or another direct native boundary stores/sets native fetDownload, not Audit. Native Audit is ordinal 4. Do not compensate by passing fetError; that deliberately encodes a defect and will silently change after correction.

The value does not move a file, choose an audit folder or verify a move. Product-native audit code first performs the filesystem operation and then applies native fetAudit; a script assignment only labels state. Final log persistence remains governed by the enclosing Flow log policy.

Safe use and diagnosis​

  • Comparing script-local enum values is safe, but any native-backed property/method is unsafe for this and all later script members.
  • Use product-managed file auditing rather than manually manufacturing audit evidence.
  • LogFileDownload safely records native Download because it selects that member inside native code; it does not make this constant safe.
  • If historical logs show Download for a script-requested Audit, preserve script/product version and call path when correcting reports.
  • Native Audit can carry a changed destination path; a path-only scripting event does not prove that source/destination or file content existed.

The example only compares a value and was source-reviewed; no log, file move, runtime or image-function test was executed.
