Dynamic variable naming

can you create a variable and name it dynamically? like:
for(var i:Number = 0; i<5; i++){
var ["v"+i]:Number = i;
so you could create unique variables on the fly?

Yes, but you need to define the scope of the variables:
for(var i:Number = 0; i<5; i++){
this["v"+i]:Number = i;
Because this uses the array access operator (square
brackets), it needs an object instance, like 'this', '_root' or
whatever fits.

Dynamic variables' naming from SendAndLoad

Hello,
Been chasing my tail for almost 2days now, I'm having
problems on how to load dynamically named variables and place it on
dynamically named movieclips. I'm loading variables from php/mysql
query thru sendAndLoad (no problem with that). The loaded variables
are names of swf files that i'm trying to load on dynamically
numbered movieclips. The problem is it just wont load. I've
searched the net for similar codes, but with no luck. I'm guessing
that my error is in getting the exact variable name to load.
Heylp...

No problems, you're welcome.
I think the eval should do the same thing as what I had. I
can't remember, I don't tend to use eval in flash - don't really
know why. I think loadMovie also accepts a string argument (which I
assume it 'evals') for a target in which case it may also work
without the eval and just with ,"_root.my_movieclip" + i; (didn't
try it so don't know for sure).
Good luck with it.

Dynamic Variable Naming for Sound Object

Is it possible to dynamically name a variable? I'd like to
create a new Sound Object on the fly, so that I can use the
Sound.load() method multiple times. I would simply like to create
and name the variable and add a number to the end of the name
(i.e.; var "audio_1":Sound). I'm sure that this is possible.
However, I can't seem to get it figured out.

This code worked great! However, how can I set a global
variable equal to the newly created Sound Object so that it is
available globally via a reuseable reference?
Here's an example of how I attempted to do this. Please note:
audioObject is a global variable that I am trying to use to
reference the new Sound Object in various places.
audioObjectCount is a global variable that I am using to set
or get the next number to use when dynamically creating the next
new Sound Object

Dynamic Variable Names

Okay, I just need to figure out how to make dynamic variable
names. In this case, I have a loop, and inside the loop I need to
create a new array for every iteration of the loop. Something like
<cfloop from="0" to="10" index="i">
<cfset LoopArray#i# = Some Value>
</cfloop>
But that doesn't work. How can you make dynamic variable
named? I think it's probably something to do with evaluate or DE,
but I don't know how to use them, and the livedocs make no sense to
me. Thanks!

From your values, you don't want a two-dimensional array
(which although
you're actually building LinkResults as a struct, with the
sequential
numeric keys, it's basically an array), you want an array of
structs, eg:
LinkResults
.player1.moveId
LinkResults.player1.damage
What is "i" actually counting through? IE: from 1-3 things...
which are...
what?

Dynamic variable names and invalid_character_err

I'm neither an expert at structure notation nor dynamic
variable naming conventions and would appreciate any help with the
following. Thanks!
This code works fine.
<cfset idx="123">
<cfset form.product[idx]=StructNew()>
<cfparam name="form.product[idx].product_nm"
default="Raspberry Jam">
<cfform name="data_entry" method="post" format="flash"
height="525" width="675" action="formdump.cfm">
<cfformgroup type="tabnavigator" height="400"
width="650">
<cfformgroup type="page" label="Product #idx#">
<cfinput name="static_form_name" type="text"
label="Product" value="#form.product[idx].product_nm#" height="350"
width="600" readonly="yes">
</cfformgroup>
</cfformgroup>
</cfform>
The following code results in the following error:
"ORG.W3C.DOM.DOMEXCEPTION ERROR. Message: INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An
invalid or illegal XML character is specified." The only change is
in the "name" attribute of the <cfinput> tag:
<cfset idx="123">
<cfset form.product[idx]=StructNew()>
<cfparam name="form.product[idx].product_nm"
default="Raspberry Jam">
<cfform name="data_entry" method="post" format="flash"
height="525" width="675" action="formdump.cfm">
<cfformgroup type="tabnavigator" height="400"
width="650">

<cfinput name="product[idx].product_nm" type="text"

</cfformgroup>

Thanks for the info. Knowing what WON’T work is
helpful!
Here’s what I’m trying to do. I’m rewriting
one of my apps, switching out conventional HTML form controls for
<cfform> controls in Flash format. Many of the existing forms
in my app are for updating data contained in a central database.
When such a form is rendered to the screen, each form control is
pre-populated with existing data. All form controls are named
dynamically based upon the unique ID of the record being updated.
Here’s a streamlined but typical example:

<cfquery name="get_project_detail"
datasource="#application.DataSource#">
SELECT project_oid_nbr, project_nm
FROM project_table
WHERE project_oid_nbr IN (14,15,16,17)
ORDER BY project_oid_nbr
</cfquery>

<cfloop query="get_project_detail">
<cfparam name="form.project_nm_#project_oid_nbr#"
default="#get_project_detail.project_nm#">
</cfloop>

<table>
<cfloop query="get_project_detail">
<tr>
<td>
<cfoutput>
Project #project_oid_nbr#:
<input type="text" name="project_nm_#project_oid_nbr#"
value="#Evaluate("form.project_nm_#project_oid_nbr#")#">
</cfoutput>
</td>
</tr>
</cfloop>
</table>
This has been working just fine. However, I’m wondering
if using the Evaluate() function is the most efficient way to go.
Therefore I wanted to use structure notation to avoid the
Evaluate() function, but as mentioned in my original post, this
naming convention won’t work with <cfform> tags.
Any suggestions as to the most efficient way to get the same
result while still using <cfform> tags? Thanks so much!

Dynamic file naming with File/FTP adapter

Hi all,
I have a requirement for writing files with names of the files based on a customer ID.... a dynamic name based on a value retrieved from the customer DB.
I have already tried using the dynamic file naming suggestion in the bpel dev guide, it does not work. I followed the instructions, the process fails to compile and throws "part" and "undefined variables" errors etc.
Has anyone succesfully used file/ftp adapter to write files with dynamic file names (using a varibale), not %SEQ% or %datetime% formats?
Thanks,
Hasan

You can create a header variable that will allow you to set the outbound file name inside the process. This variable is a message type. From the type chooser select:
Message Types
Partner Links
Outbound Partner Link
Outbound wsdl
Message Types
Imported WSDL
fileAdapterOutboundHeader.wsdl
OutboundHeader_msg
This variable will have a part filename.
Set this part to whatever you wish your file to be named.
Select the invoke to your outbound file/ftp partnerlink. Move to the adapters tab and select the header variable you created as the Input Header Variable.

Creating dynamic variable names

I know there has got to a way to do this but I am not finding anything on google. I want to create a dynamic variable name like name + i so when your in a loop the names come out name1, name2 and so on till however many you want. I have tried
int name + i = 3;
int name[i] = 3; // which obviously won't but I had to try
int name{i} = 3;and I am out of ideas. Thanks for all your help.

I'd suggest using variables named j or x when posting code which uses them as array indexes.
[i] - is for italics formatting
[u] - is for underlined formatting
[code] is for class Example { ... } code formatting
etc.

Dynamic Variable Names in OpenScript

Is there a way to use dynamic variable names? What I mean by this is that the variable name in the file could be:
Name1, Name2, Name3, etc.
I may want to loop through these by saying something like:
For i = 0; i < iLoop; i++
String sFieldName = "{{ViewList.Name" + Integer.toString(i) + "}}";
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "sFieldName: " + "{{ViewList.{{sFieldName}}}}");
I don't want it to use the literal string of {{ViewList.Name1}}, but rather, I want to use the value from the DataBank for Name1. Thanks.
-John

Nishanth,
Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately, this is not a simple variable replacement. I want the name of the variable to be dynamic in nature. Imagine that I have 5 variables in the files named:
Name
FoodPref1
FoodPref2
FoodPref3
FoodPref4
I would like to loop through these and construct the variable name dynamically so it would be something similar to:
for i=1 to 4; i++
sFoodPrefVar = "FoodPref" + i;
getVariables().set("FoodPref",sFoodPrefVar);
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Your Food Pref is: " + {{FoodPref}} + "\n");
This is pseudo code, but it would theoretically loop through the 4 food preferences. Thanks.

Binding dynamic variable in XQuery doesn't work: ORA-00932

I have a table with several columns. One of those columns is a XMLType.
My goal is to have a query which selects rows from the table of which the XML column matches certain criteria.
I'm trying following example (JDBC) : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28369/xdb_xquery.htm#insertedID11
First, I created my own query, which looks like:
select * from MyTable t, XMLTABLE( xmlnamespaces (DEFAULT 'http://test), 'for $i in /RootElement where $i/SubElement[contains(Element, "someValue")] return "true"' passing t.xmlColumn)This works as expected. Next, as done in the example, I'm trying to replace the "someValue" with a dynamic variable.
Query then looks like:
select * from MyTable t, XMLTABLE( xmlnamespaces (DEFAULT 'http://test), 'for $i in /RootElement where $i/SubElement[contains(Element, $val)] return "true"' passing t.xmlColumn, :1 as "val")This does not seem to work, neither in SQLDeveloper nor in java.
I always get the :
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CHAR(SQLDeveloper just gives ORA-00932)
When I put $val between quotes (so "$val") then I get no error, but then I get no results either.
I think it will not replace $val in that case but just use it as a literal, so thats not what I want
I also tried to remove "contains" xpath and use the exact same example as on the oracle page
select * from MyTable t, XMLTABLE( xmlnamespaces (DEFAULT 'http://test), 'for $i in /RootElement where $i/SubElement/Key = $val return "true"' passing t.xmlColumn, :1 as "val")But this doens't help either.
I'm clueless about this, so any help would be appreciated

Ok, I tested it using the latest enterprise edition (11g) and there it works as expected.
However, on 10.2.0.1.0 and 10.2.0.3.0 it gives this error.
Is this a bug which has been fixed or should I do something special on 10g ?
I installed all of these as normal without any special settings, created the tables and ran the query...

How do I use a dynamic variable from a prolog script?

I have my test broken in to three scripts, a login, an update, and a logout. There is a dynamic variable, SERVICE_VIRTUAL_CLIENT, from the login script that I need to use in the update script, but I can't figure out how to do it. Any help would be appreciated.
Edit: I forgot to mention that the login script is only run in the prolog portion of the UDP.
Scott
Message was edited by: scottmorgan

Scott,
You would do this the same way you would in a stand-alone script. Create the variable pattern in the login in script and name the variable. Save the login script and open the other script and select the parameter where you need the value. Set the parameter value to {{variableNameFromLogin}} (Variables are transferred from one script to the next in a UDP).
I hope this makes sense

Dynamic variable Time for Select

Hi,
I try to develop some scripts but always I have the same problem , when I try to put in a Select instruction the variable Time, it doesn´t work correctly (for example):
*SELECT(%example%,"ID","TIME","[ID]='%TIME_SET%' ")
It doesn´t read correctly the variable Time_Set.
Have you got any idea to try to do selects using dynamic variable?
Thanks for all.

Hi,
Dynamic variables like %TIME_SET% do not interact very well with the compiled default logic (LGX files) when it is run after a data send. If you look at the Default.LGX file, you will notice that your *SELECT statement does not appear there because that *SELECT statement has already been compiled. That is why the logic works when it is run via the debugger (because the LGF file is getting executed at run time) and it does not work when it is run via a data send (because the LGX is being executed).
What you will need to do is:
1. Create a another logic file (for example: Calculation1.LGF) and copy the text from the Default.LGF to this new logic file.
2. Place the following text in the Default.LGF file:
*RUNLOGIC
*LOGIC=Calculation1.LGF
*ENDRUNLOGIC
3. Validate and save the Default.LGF file
Now try running the logic after a data send and see if that works.
Good luck,
John

and (ex_ticket_trade.ticket_suite_code='N' OR ex_ticket_trade.ticket_suite_code='Y')
order by p_sorton desc;
--ex_ticket_trade.ticket_datetime desc;
........then comes the rest of the code........
This code compiles fine but does not use the value passed in the param p_sorton in the order by clause.
the same code works fine when hardcoded to "ex_ticket_trade.ticket_datetime"
No idea where I may be going wrong?
Also can I do anything like ORDER BY v1 v2
where v1 specifies columns to sort on and v2 asc/desc, coz that's what I really need to do?
Pls help ...

Dynamic Variable In a Type Definition

Can someone tell me how to define and use a dynamic variable, which resides in a Type Definition. I.E...
Type: beg of type1,
        field 1 type c,
        field 2 <---this dynamic
        field 3 type c.
      end of type1.
Can this be done in Netweaver 2004. And if so, can you show me how?
Thanks for your time.
Kind Regards,
Jason

Don't think it is available now, but I do believe they are working on this for a future release.
