[midPoint] midPoint Digest, Vol 145, Issue 7

[Maxwell, Gary]

Thank You Ivan for pointing me in the right direction.

It explains why the expression and condition are evaluated twice. This leads me to the next question. 
The source for my variable is a $focus user attribute  and the target is the same $focus user attribute. Therefore I set the output attribute depending upon the input variable.  The script sees the correct input variable the first time it runs however sees the new value on the second time it runs. 

Is there a way to access the Midpoint user attribute  value that only reflects the initial value before it is changed?

I hope this makes sense.
-Gary

Can someone tell me why the following script executes twice? The first execution uses the existing isActive value, the second time uses the value I changed it to.

<resource>
<schemaHandling>
<objectType>
<attribute>
<inbound>
<source>
         <name>isActive</name>
         <path>$focus/extension/isActive</path>
 </source>
<expression>
<script>.
<code>
	If (isActive == true)
		return false
</code>
</script>
</expression>
<target>
	<path>extension/isActive</path>
</target>
</inbound>
</attribute>
</objectType>
</schemaHandling>
</resource>
