The acfValidator provides methods to browse, search,
validate & group records of the ACF and/or LKAAT tariff
API browser of acfValidator100 COM module


/images/arrow_right.png IValidateTMA::Finalize method space
Validate all TMA services by running the "late binding" rules and than run a grouper process for all available ACFBase elements. The result of these grouping processes is return by the Finalize methods.

Please note, that a plethora of checks are undertaken (e.g. no ACFBase elements, no TMA services for a ACFBase element, orphant TMA services, etc), whose result might be returned as error. There is one logical 'error' that is not returned via an error code: the non-grouping status, also known as 'no.ambP'. Therefore check both returned variables for consistency and/or consult the iterator pair IValidateTMA::GetFirstACFBase / IValidateTMA::GetNextACFBasefor in-depth insight.

[POST] /baseURL/IValidateTMA/Finalize
[JSON input data] pIValidateTMA: longValue,    //interface address
[JSON result data] plNumACF:
pbstrGroupingStatusList:
pbStatus:		 longValue,
"utf8StringValue",
booleanValue
 
[HTTP result status] 200 Return status 200 signals a successful method call
204 Return status 204 (noContent) signals that the end of an iteration is reached
>= 400 Return status >= 400 signals an unsuccessful function call. The returned JSON{errorCode: code, errorText:"text"} supplies the error message the same as GetAbortInfo() would do.

HRESULT Finalize( long
BSTR
VARIANT_BOOL 		*plNumACF,
*pbstrGroupingStatusList,
*pbStatus);
[C/C++ return value] S_OK This value is returned if the function call was successful.
S_FALSE This value is returned if the end of an iteration is reached
E_name This value is returned if the function call was unsuccessful and an error exception was generated. Note that if you are using SmartPointers an exception is thrown under these conditions.

/images/arrow_right.png Calling argument description
[out] long *plNumACF The number of ACFBase elements having a distinct sessionNumber
[out] BSTR *pbstrGroupingStatusList A hash separated list of grouping states formatted as sessionNumber(ACFCode)# (e.g. 35(C08.26C) or 37(ERR_NO.amP) ). Note that the latter example shows the non-grouping result!
[out,retval] VARIANT_BOOL *pbStatus Return status. VARIANT_TRUE means S_OK, VARIANT_FALSE means S_FALSE (e.g. in an iterator) or an error (E_name).
In the later case check for possible errors with the GetAbortInfo method.
