Remarks

This class is required when reading data from XML documents and when subsequently saving data as related tables.

Microsoft Dynamics AX document classes sometimes need contextual information so that they can update AxBC object data. The contextual information in this case is a stack of AxBC objects that are on the XML path and have already been saved, as well as the new AxBC object that has not been saved yet.

Examples

static void exampleMethod() 
{ 
    AxSalesTable axSalesTable; 
    AxSalesLine   axSalesLine; 
    AxdStack       axdStack = new axdStack(); 

    axSalesTable = new AxSalesTable(); 
    axdStack.push(axSalesTable); 
    axSalesLine = new AxSalesLine(); 
    axdStack.push(axSalesLine); 
    info(strfmt("There are %1 object in the stack",axdStack.count())); 
    info(strfmt( 
        "The class in the first element in the stack has the id no. '%1'", 
        classidget(axdStack.top()))); 
    axdStack.pop(); 
    info(strfmt("There are %1 object in the stack",axdStack.count())); 
}
