supports

Detect whether property is supported by database metadata object

Syntax

a = supports(dbmeta) a = supports(dbmeta, 'property') a.property

a = supports(dbmeta) returns a structure that contains the properties of dbmeta and its property values, 1 or 0. A value of 1 indicates that the property is supported, and 0 indicates that the property is not supported.
a = supports(dbmeta, 'property') returns 1 or 0 for the property field of dbmeta. A value of 1 indicates that the property is supported, and 0 indicates that the property is not supported.
a.property returns the value of property after you have created a using the supports function.

Check if dbmeta supports group-by clauses.

a = supports(dbmeta, 'GroupBy')
a =
     1

View the value of all properties of dbmeta.
```
a = supports(dbmeta)
```
The returned result is a list of properties and their values.
See the value of the GroupBy property by running:
```
a.GroupBy
a =
     1
```
