Hi,

The common syntax in CTL would look like this:

dictionary.myEntry["retry"] = "myValue";

When you type this into a CTL editor, you have an option to convert your CTL code into Java code, see the screenshot.

Converting the CTL code above, you will get the following:

java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> tmpVar0 = CTLUtils.toMap(getGraph().getDictionary().getValue("myEntry"), java.lang.String.class);

boolean tmpVar1 = false;

if (tmpVar0 == null) {
	tmpVar0 = new java.util.LinkedHashMap<java.lang.String,java.lang.String>();
	tmpVar1 = true;
}

tmpVar0.put("retry", "myValue");

if (tmpVar1) {
	getGraph().getDictionary().setValue("myEntry", tmpVar0);
}

Hope this helps.
