I.5.6 “getData” method

“getData” method returns an Array of Arrays containing the data stored in a ResKeyList object. The returned Array may actually be considered as a two-dimensional Array with as many lines as there are pairs of keys in the ResKeyList object. Each line of the Array contains four elements:

1.

The first element corresponds to the elemId.

2.

The second element corresponds to the nodeId of the key.

3.

The third element corresponds to the layerId of the key.

4.

The fourth element corresponds to the subLayerId of the key.

The method may have 4, 3, 2, 1 or no argument. The arguments correspond to the type of the Array elements corresponding to elemId, nodeId, layerId or subLayerId. In the returned Array, these elements may be of String or Integer types. Correspondingly the arguments are Strings the value of which can be "int", "string" or any other String. If any other String is used as argument (for example a void string), the default Integer or String type elements are returned.

Actually, this method corresponds to the “getData” method of Result class (See section I.4.10). The special key names are the same as those listed in Tables I.4.2 to I.4.4.
