A key concept critical to the use of the Global Address Object is to understand how the object handles address data as inputs and outputs. Global Address Object can accept all address data for input through a set/get paradigm.

Input Methods

For input address data there are two functions: SetInputParameter and GetInputParameterNames.

SetInputParameter

This function takes a name/value parameter to set input address data for processing within the Global Address Object.

GetInputParameterNames

This function returns an array/list of all named parameters available as input in the Global Address Object.


Output Methods

For returning address quality metrics and results there is a single output function, GetOutputParameter, and a corresponding function, GetOutputParameterNames.

GetOutputParameterNames

This function provides an array/list of the parameter names available for output after verifyAddress has been called for processing.

GetOutputParameter

This function takes a named parameter to request the return of output address data after input address data has been processed by verifyAddress.
