is all

All existence declarations match all the remaining instances of a certain type. This means the whole declaration will only match exactly one time or zero times, in that way this matches "any" instance that fulfils the condition including none. They allow you to make highly variable documents or rules.

Note that an all existence declaration does not prevent a document or rule from matching if there are no matching instances.

Syntax

VARIABLE_1, ... VARIABLE_N, ... OTHER is all ONTOLOGY, ROLE_1, ... ROLE_N

The first N matching Instances will be stored in the variables VARIABLE_1 to VARIABLE_N. If there are more than N Instances, these will be stored as a list in OTHER.

Examples: separate variables

p1, p2, p3, ...ps is all Person

If there are five Person Instances in the Case, the first three will be available as p1, p2, p3, the other two will go into a list available as ps.

Examples: variables stored in a list

ps is all Person

If there are N Person Instances in the Case, ps will hold that list of N Person Instances.
