Type_GateOut
Type_GateOut = 2
Example
procedure ScriptEvent(var Value: variant);
begin
Value := Type_GateOut; // 2
end;
Usage
Type_GateOut identifies the Gate Out container-movement type as fresh-build ContainerMove_Type.Num value 2.
Value
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Script type | LongInt |
| Numeric value | 2 |
| Paired text | Type_GateOut_String = GateOut |
| Database domain | ContainerMove_Type.Num / .Code |
| Data field | ContainerMove.MovementTypeNum |
Additional Technical Info
Type_GateOut is the script-visible LongInt identifier for the Gate Out container-movement type. Its fixed value is 2, paired with Type_GateOut_String.
It identifies a movement type only. It does not create a ContainerMove, record a physical gate event, validate a container or trigger a workflow.
Implementation
Velox declares and registers fixed value 2. The numeric name is in the Velox tag map, so <!Type_GateOut!> expands to 2. No container-movement type converter is registered.
Fresh-build VxData inserts application-1 ContainerMove_Type row 2 with Code GateOut and Description Gate Out; ContainerMove.MovementTypeNum references the identity-keyed table.
Behaviour
Use the numeric value only when the target deployment retains the seeded row identity. Use the exact code only where caller logic or database lookup explicitly expects it; there is no fixed script converter.
Edge cases and quirks
ContainerMove_Type.Numis an identity key and the table is application-scoped/extensible. The constant matches the fresh-build insertion order, not every conceivable migrated or independently populated database.- The code has no space (
GateIn/GateOut), while the seeded Description contains a space. - The tag expansion produces the number
2, not the codeGateOut. - Reading a type does not prove that a container crossed a gate or that an event row exists.
- PascalScript retains no movement-type domain after the integer/string is evaluated; values 1 and 2 overlap other families.
Side effects
Reading Type_GateOut, comparing it, or expanding its tag has no I/O or state-changing effect.
Errors
Reading the constant does not raise an error. Persisting a number that does not identify a row in the target deployment can fail the MovementTypeNum foreign key.
Performance and concurrency
This is immutable compiled metadata. Access is constant-time; database identity and movement concurrency belong to caller operations.
Remarks
The example is source-reviewed and non-destructive. It does not create or process a container movement.
