Chapter Twenty-three — XBRL Functions (continued)
Overview
The XBRLViewGetFact function returns a string containing the raw fact data as specified by an element and a context.
Syntax/Parameters
Syntax
string = XBRLViewGetFact ( handle hXBRL, string element, string context );
Parameters
hXBRL
A handle containing the reference to an XBRL Object.
element
A string specifying the element for the fact. The element must contain the namespace designator. For example, “Assets” must be “us-gaap:Assets”.
context
A string specifying the context ID.
Return Value
A string containing the raw fact or an empty string on error. An empty string can indicate a “nil” fact so the error condition must be tested to differentiate between an empty position and a nil fact. Use the GetLastError function to retrieve a formatted error code or IsError / IsNotError to determine if an error occurred.
The ERROR_EOD (0x81000000) contains three variations to differentiate between errors:
0 — Empty fact position.
1 — Element not found.
2 — Context not found.
The ERROR_NONE_MASK can be ANDed to the value to determine which error occurred.
Remarks
Certain fact types such as text can be very large (up to 2MB).
