Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Updated: (OFFICE-3494) Part 2 6.13 AddCURRENTVALUE function



     [ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3494?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Dennis Hamilton updated OFFICE-3494:
------------------------------------

       Proposal: 
[last edited 2010-10-26T14:50Z]

In section 2.2.2(E), Add CURRENTVALUE to the list of Small Group Evaluator functions.  This function should be available at all levels.

In Section 6.13 add a new CURRENTVALUE section immediately after 6.13.10 COUNTIFS.  This new 6.13.11 CURRENTVALUE will have the following text:

"""
Summary: Return the current value, if any, available in the context of the current evaluation.

Syntax:  CURRENTVALUE( )

Returns: a value

Constraints: None

Semantics: Whenever the evaluation is in a context where there is a current value, that value is made available to the evaluation as the result of CURRENTVALUE( ). [Note: a current value need not be associated with a specific cell or even a table, depending on the context in which the evaluation is employed.]


Whenever the current value is that of a table cell, that value is delivered in the same manner as if CURRENTVALUE( ) were a reference to that cell.

When there is no applicable current value in the context of the current evaluation, CURRENTVALUE( ) returns an error-type value.

Evaluation of CURRENTVALUE( ) does not constitute a recursive reference.  When CURRENTVALUE() is the value of a cell, CURRENTVALUE( ) does not create a dependency on that cell for automatic recalculation purposes.

Syntax:  CURRENTVALUE( )

Returns: a value

Constraints: None

Semantics: Whenever the evaluation is in a context where there is a current value, that value is made available to the evaluation as the result of CURRENTVALUE( ).  If the evaluation is in a context where there is a current cell which will be updated as a result of the current evaluation, CURRENTVALUE( ) returns the value *currently* established for that cell.   If the current value is an error-type value, that value is returned.  When there is no applicable current value in the context of the current evaluation, CURRENTVALUE( ) returns an error-type value.

Evaluation of CURRENTVALUE( ) does not constitute a recursive reference; replacement of a current value as the result of the current evaluation shall not by itself induce any recalculation of the current evaluation.

    Description: 
The CURRENTVALUE( ) function is an additional Information Function that provides access to the existing value in the context for which the OpenFormula formula is being evaluated.

This function corresponds to the current-content( ) function defined in ODF 1.2 style:condition and table:condition attributes and it has the same purpose:

Whenever the evaluation is in a context where there is a current value, that value is made available to the evaluation as the result of CURRENTVALUE( ).  [Note: a current value need not be associated with a specific cell or even a table, depending on the context in which the evaluation is employed.]

Whenever the current value is that of a table cell, that value is delivered in the same manner as if CURRENTVALUE( ) were a reference to that cell.

CURRENTVALUE( ) is a special form of reference that delivers a value based on the context of evaluation.

When there is no current value available, CURRENTVALUE( ) returns an error-type value.   If the current value is an error-type value, that error is returned.

Evaluation of CURRENTVALUE( ) shall not induce recalculation.  It does not constitute a recursive reference of any kind.

Added to small group and fixed the recursion-avoidance dependency rule.
