Variables defined by the rule engine

ias_Address The address of the message. For example, myclient\myqueue.

ias_ContentSize The size of the message content. If the message is a text message, this is the number of characters. If the message is binary, this is the number of bytes.

ias_ContentType The type of message:

IAS_TEXT_CONTENT	The message content consists of unicode characters.
IAS_BINARY_CONTENT	The message content is treated as an uninterpreted sequence of bytes.

ias_CurrentDate The current date.

A string can be compared against ias_currentDate if it is supplied in one of two ways:

as a string of format, which is interpreted unambiguously.
as a string according to the date_format database option set for the client message store database.

See Database options and date_format option.

ias_CurrentTime The current time.

A string can be compared against ias_CurrentTime if the hours, minutes, and seconds are separated by colons and a period in the format hh:mm:ss.sss. A 24-hour clock is assumed unless am or pm is specified. See time_format option.

ias_CurrentTimestamp The current timestamp (current date and time). See time_format option.

ias_Expires The date and time when the message expires if it is not delivered.

ias_Network Information about the current network in use. ias_Network is a special transmission variable. It has many built-in attributes that provide information regarding the current network that is being used by the device.

ias_Priority The priority of message: an integer between 0 and 9, where 0 indicates less priority and 9 indicates more priority.

ias_Status The current status of the message. The values can be:

IAS_CANCELLED_STATE	The message has been canceled.
IAS_EXPIRED_STATE	The message expired before it could be received by the intended recipient.
IAS_FINAL_STATE	The message is received or expired. Therefore, `>=IAS_FINAL_STATE` means that the message is received or expired, and `<IAS_FINAL_STATE` means that the message is neither received nor expired.
IAS_PENDING_STATE	The message has not yet been received by the intended recipient.
IAS_RECEIVED_STATE	The message was received by the intended recipient.
IAS_UNRECEIVABLE_STATE	The message has been marked as unreceivable because it is either malformed or there were too many failed attempts to deliver it.

See also:

ias_TransmissionStatus The synchronization status of the message. It can be one of:

IAS_UNTRANSMITTED	The message has not been transmitted to its intended recipient message store.
IAS_TRANSMITTED	The message has been transmitted to its intended recipient message store.
IAS_DO_NOT_TRANSMIT	The recipient and originating message stores are the same so no transmission is necessary.
IAS_TRANSMITTING	The message has been transmitted to its intended recipient, but that transmission has yet to be confirmed. There is a possibility that the message transmission was interrupted, and that QAnywhere may transmit the message again.
