The following example extracts the values of four fields from the occurrence specified by currentOccurrence, from the entity declared as ent.

Values.UTYPE_STRING,
Values.UTYPE_STRING,
Values.UTYPE_STRING
};
UnifaceEntity ent ;
// other initialization code
ent = new UnifaceEntity (fieldTypes);
// code (not shown) that populates ent
try {
// get values from fields in current occurrence
Object f1 = ent.getOccurrenceField(currentOccurrence,1);
Object f2 = ent.getOccurrenceField(currentOccurrence,2);
Object f3 = ent.getOccurrenceField(currentOccurrence,3);
Object f4 = ent.getOccurrenceField(currentOccurrence,4);
}
catch (UnifaceException exc) {
jTextStatus.setText("Error: " + exc.getMessage());
