18.15. Methods for Retrieving Causes
If an event occurs when executing an activation, it is shown as a child of the activation's execution event. You can retrieve the cause in the following events::
- The cause of an object modified or retracted event is the last object event for that object. This is either the object asserted event, or the last object modified event for that object.
- The cause of an activation canceled or executed event is the corresponding activation created event.
Note
When selecting an event, the cause is shown in green in the audit view. You can right-click the action and select the "Show Cause" menu item. This will scroll you to the cause of the selected event.
