Dennis Hamilton updated OFFICE-3494:

Proposal:
[last edited 2010-10-26T14:50Z]
In section 2.2.2(E), Add CURRENTVALUE to the list of Small Group Evaluator functions. This function should be available at all levels.
In Section 6.13 add a new CURRENTVALUE section immediately after 6.13.10 COUNTIFS. This new 6.13.11 CURRENTVALUE will have the following text:
"""
Summary: Return the current value, if any, available in the context of the current evaluation.
Syntax: CURRENTVALUE( )
Returns: a value
Constraints: None
Semantics: Whenever the evaluation is in a context where there is a current value, that value is made available to the evaluation as the result of CURRENTVALUE( ). [Note: a current value need not be associated with a specific cell or even a table, depending on the context in which the evaluation is employed.]
Whenever the current value is that of a table cell, that value is delivered in the same manner as if CURRENTVALUE( ) were a reference to that cell.
When there is no applicable current value in the context of the current evaluation, CURRENTVALUE( ) returns an error-type value.
Evaluation of CURRENTVALUE( ) does not constitute a recursive reference. When CURRENTVALUE() is the value of a cell, CURRENTVALUE( ) does not create a dependency on that cell for automatic recalculation purposes.

Summary: Return the current value, if any, available in the context of the current evaluation.
Syntax: CURRENTVALUE( )
Returns: a value
Constraints: None
Semantics: Whenever the evaluation is in a context where there is a current value, that value is made available to the evaluation as the result of CURRENTVALUE( ). If the evaluation is in a context where there is a current cell which will be updated as a result of the current evaluation, CURRENTVALUE( ) returns the value *currently* established for that cell. If the current value is an error-type value, that value is returned. When there is no applicable current value in the context of the current evaluation, CURRENTVALUE( ) returns an error-type value.
Evaluation of CURRENTVALUE( ) does not constitute a recursive reference; replacement of a current value as the result of the current evaluation shall not by itself induce any recalculation of the current evaluation.
Description:
The CURRENTVALUE( ) function is an additional Information Function that provides access to the existing value in the context for which the OpenFormula formula is being evaluated.
This function corresponds to the current-content( ) function defined in ODF 1.2 style:condition and table:condition attributes and it has the same purpose:
Whenever the evaluation is in a context where there is a current value, that value is made available to the evaluation as the result of CURRENTVALUE( ). [Note: a current value need not be associated with a specific cell or even a table, depending on the context in which the evaluation is employed.]
Whenever the current value is that of a table cell, that value is delivered in the same manner as if CURRENTVALUE( ) were a reference to that cell.
CURRENTVALUE( ) is a special form of reference that delivers a value based on the context of evaluation.
When there is no current value available, CURRENTVALUE( ) returns an error-type value. If the current value is an error-type value, that error is returned.
Evaluation of CURRENTVALUE( ) shall not induce recalculation. It does not constitute a recursive reference of any kind.

CURRENTVALUE( ) is a special form of reference that delivers a value based on the context of evaluation.
When there is no current value available, CURRENTVALUE( ) returns an error-type value. If the current value is an error-type value, that error is returned.
Evaluation of CURRENTVALUE( ) shall not induce recalculation. It does not constitute a recursive reference of any kind.
Added to small group and fixed the recursion-avoidance dependency rule.
