Example 11: Objects & Collections

OBJECTS
Objects in TDL are classified as Internal Objects and External Objects.

Internal Objects
There are several pre-defined Internal Objects in TDL viz. Company, Group, Ledger, Stock Group, Stock Item, Voucher, Voucher Type etc.

External Objects or User-defined Objects
You can define your own Objects in TDL. Example:-

[Object: Contact1] Name: "Dinesh Shukla" Email: abc@mycompany.com Phone: "9987654321" [Object: Contact2] Name: "Aakash Choudhary" Email: xyz@mycompany.com Phone: "123456"

We shall be using Internal and External Objects quite frequently in the succeeding sections of this tutorial.

Collections
A Group of Objects is referred as a Collection. You can create a collection of the Objects as follows:-

[Collection: My Collection] Object: Contact1 Object: Contact2

A Program illustrating the use of Objects and Collection is provided for your reference. Click here to download the Example 11 compiled file and the source-code.
