XBRLGetEntryPointPrefix Function

Overview

The XBRLGetEntryPointPrefix function returns the taxonomy entry point prefix.

Syntax/Parameters

Syntax

string = XBRLGetEntryPointPrefix ( handle hXM );

Parameters

hXM

A handle to an XBRL Object.

Return Value

Returns a string with the entry point prefix or an empty array on failure. Use the GetLastError function to retrieve a formatted error code.

Remarks

If the taxonomy is not loaded, this function will return an empty string. Each schema has a target namespace declared and the first schema loaded becomes that entry point. The prefix used for that schema file is returned as the prefix associated with the entry pointer namespace.

The prefix is conventionally the prefix as part of the QName for concept extensions to another taxonomy, for example US-GAAP.
