Object URL Syntax

Overview

We’ve introduced the following new syntax to dynamically resolve URLs for various system objects and actions: @ssurl(objecttype,action,identifier)@. This syntax allows configuration settings to reference system objects through variables.

Syntax

The general format of the syntax is the following:

@ssurl(objecttype,action,identifier)@

The "identifier" parameter may consist of more than 1 object. Multiple objects can be separated by using double semicolons ( ;; ) as a delimiter.

For some objects, the system enforces unique naming. For example, if you create an autoloader named "MyAutoloader", it is possible to create another autoloader also named "MyAutoloader". In these situations, we will simply return the object with lower ID.

Configuration should avoid these scenarios to begin with.
