Description:
===========
Accessing multiple child concepts in a decision table action column in Web Studio or Decision Manager

Environment:
===========
TIBCO BusinessEvents 5.x
All Operating Systems

Cause :
===========
With a regular action column it is only possible to set the value for a property of only one instance of the concept array.

Resolution:
===========
To access the contained child indexes of a parent concept in the action column of a decision table in Web Studio or decision manager use a custom action column. In the custom action column the contained child concepts can be accessed and set as shown below .

parent.childConcepts[0].childName = "xyz"; parent.childConcepts[1].childName = "abc"  

To dynamically determine the number of child concepts and assign actions to individual children use the following code snippet in the custom action column of the decision manager table.

Code Snippet :
---------------
int x = parent.ChildConcepts@length;         
for (int i = 0;i&ltx ;i++)
{             
   parent.ChildConcepts[i].ChildName ="C"+ String.valueOfInt(i);             
   System.debugOut("DT printing : " + parent.ChildConcepts[i].ChildName);         
}
