IsFail Method (.NET)

The IsFail method returns a boolean indicating whether a specific RET test returned a result of Fail.

Syntax:

bool outcome = ruleEngineResult.IsFail(string ruleID);

Returns:

outcome: True if the specified test ID resulted in a condition of Fail, based on the rule conditions as defined in the RET XML data.

ruleID: The ID of the rule to check, as defined in the XML

C# Example:

...

if (ruleEngineResult.IsFail("myrule") == true) {

// If we are here then the rule "myrule" failed

}

For reference, the ID to pass in comes from the 'id' parameter of the XML rule you wish to check.

With the XML below, the code above would return the results from the platform check since 'myrule'

is the assigned ID for that test.

...

</test>

Tip: See the rules-dataset.aspx sample for a full demonstration of this method.
