IfValidAnd() and potentially LocalCompAssigned() enhancements

IfValidAnd() function, has an issue when encountering undefined data at more than one indirection. An example rule where the function is used in this context is:

RULE TrmlUnit:InducedAirZnRef ... CHECKSIM ... if( IfValidAnd( InducedAirZnRef:Name = ZnServedRef:RetPlenumZnRef:Name ) ) then ...

if RetPlenumZnRef is UNDEFINED, the function returns an error indicating the arguments on both sides are not the same datatype.

Also, this may already be the case, but it would be ideal if the LocalCompAssigned() function could be used ensure a component is assigned for any of the object ref properties if multiple indirections are used. For example it would be ideal if:

LocalCompAssigned( ZnServedRef:RetPlenumZnRef:... )

returns FALSE if no object is assigned to ZnServedRef, RetPlenumZnRef, etc. This may already be the case, but I have not tested.

What version of CBECC-NRes are you using? On what operating system? [r3014]+.

Please provide any additional information below.
