Assign numeric value to a variable from an item

Someone please help me. I am attempting to assign a variable a numerical value from a text field. For example,
my text field item is :P202_AMOUNT. How do I assign the number that is entered into this item to a PLS_INTEGER variable? I have attempted to uss this line of code but it hasn't worked:
v_amount PLS_INTEGER := :P202_AMOUNT;
Please help.
-Stefano

Stefano,
The code you showed will work in the declaration section of a PL/SQL block that is part of your application's metadata (region, process, computation, etc.). Perhaps you are attempting to compile such a block externally using the bind variable. If that is the case, try v('P202_AMOUNT') instead. Or maybe your question is about format masks... How about giving us a bit more to go on?

Assigning a value to a variable from a .txt file

Hello, I'm having a slight problem doing this.
I have a text file called text.txt, and within it is the text "one two" (minus the speechmarks).
I'm simply trying to assign the second one of these words, (i.e. "two"), to a string variable of mine called second.
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Class
    public static void main() throws FileNotFoundException
        FileReader file = new FileReader("C:\\Documents and Settings\\Admin\\Desktop\\numbers.txt");
        Scanner scanner1 = new Scanner(file);
String first = scanner1.next();
//String second =   // this is the part I don't know.
System.out.println(first); //this works fine, and shows "one"
System.out.println(second) // this is what I'm trying to make work, by showing "two".
}I hope I've explained myself clearly.
Thanks a lot, I'm really struggling with this seeminly-simple problem.

The Scanner API has good examples of how to use the class's methods. Try
String second =scanner1.next();And change the name of your class from "Class" to something else. Java uses that name for one of its classes.

Assign value to ODI variable from Jython

Hello Experts,
I have a procedure where I'm using Jython code. I want to assign a value to an ODI project variable from a Jython function:
Example:
#COUNTER = len(v_jythonList) ---> being #COUNTER the ODI project variable and len() the jython function
Now, i noticed that using ODI variables adds # sign which is use for comments in Jython code. Is there a way to assign values to ODI variables from Jython script?
Please help!.
Thanks.
Pablo.

Can one assign a numerical value to a variable?

Hi All,
Good afternoon,
I am currently working on a form that has strings as values in 2 different listboxes, and depending on what is selected a message pops up. Here is the script I wrote, but it does not seem to work right
var a=aKlaclistbox.raWvalue=="SSK";
var b=bZlaslistbox.raWvalue=="SGT";
a.value=1;
b.value=2;
if(a > b){
    xfa.host.messagebox("You cannot select a lower officer as the rating officer");
It does not work, and I am just wondering if there is any way I can get around it so that I can compare the values. I need help from anyone on this forum.
Thanks
v/r
Tammy

There's probably a better way of doing this, as, depending on how many ranks you have, it could get cumbersome. Like using an array or something like that but not sure how to accomplish that.
If there are a lot of ranks to compare I think I'd suggest reworking things so that you can use the numeric value of the list box, it will be much easier in the long run.
As I mentioned above, I don't think the following is valid code:
var a=aKlaclistbox.raWvalue=="SSK";
Nor is (unless dealing with global variables):
a.value=1;
I think you need to do something like the following (hopefully someone else around here might have a better idea!):
var a;
var b;
if (aKlaclistbox.rawValue == "SSK") {
     a = 1;
if (bZlaslistbox.rawValue == "SGT") {
     b = 2;
//You would need a series of else/if with the above to map the different rank values.
if (a > b) {
   xfa.host.messagebox("You cannot select a lower officer as the rating officer");

Assign a value to a variable

Kind of a newbie question here. In TestStand I use an action (ReadTemp see attached) to call a .vi that reads a temperature from a sensor. One of the parameters in the action (the return from the vi) is the temperature value as a DBL. I would like to assign that numeric value to a FileGlobal variable to decide which test step get executed next. It doesn't seem like this should be difficult but I don't know how to do it. Any help would be appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.
Attachments:
Test.seq ‏11 KB

I can not read your attachment at the moment but I notice that you are using TestStand 4.1
So you should be able to assign your FileGlobal to the output connection of your VI but you have to make sure you have connected this output in your VI to the VI's connector pane. Back in TestStand SeqEditor, If you are not seeing this connection try doing a reload prototype.

Assigning Javascript value to ABAP variables

Hi Experts,
I have written the HTML code mixed with Javascripts to create a table in the 'View' of a BSP Component.
I was able to set the value of assign the value of ABAP parameters into HTML fields.
This table has some input fields. I need to fetch the value of input parameters which has been entered by screen on an event which is present in Overview Page.
I can calulate the value mentioned in input field but i am not able to assign the same value to ABAP parameter for further processing.
I have already referred the following link but it did not work.
Assign Javascript variable to Abap variable
Please help me how i should i acheive it.
Thanks In Advance,

Hi,
I am not understanding your problem and what you want due to description, but it seems to be very similar to a post which I answered very recently [here|How to return values from a BSP page to Javascript;.

Assign a value to class variable

I want to define a class variable in class. And I want all subclasses of that class ot have a different value for that class variable. How can I do that?
public class BaseClass {
public static String tableName = "";
}Now if I have a ClassA and I want to assign a value like this :
public class ClassA extends BaseClass {
tableName = "location";
} I got an error message.
I can move it in a static initializer block but then it will only work when the class is loaded. In my case its possible i want to get this value without loading the class.
Ditto if i move it to constructor.
Any input? Thanks

Are you saying that if i have 2 classes ClassA and
ClassB inherited from BaseClass, then both are
sharing the same copy of 'tableName' staticvariable?
If yes then I should go with an instance variable.No, I am saying that you can easily declare a
tablName in A and another tableName in B.
A.tableName will be shared between all the instances
s of A. B.tableName will be shared between all the
instances of B. And BaseClass.tableName is
irelevant. I think you try to use
BaseClass.tableName as some kind of template for
sub-classes, but this does not happen: you need to
declare tableName again and again in each subclass.
IThanks for clarifying. Each class needs to have a variable "tableName" and it needs to have one copy of this variable for all of that class's objects. 2 classes will not have the same value of this tableName variable.
Thats why I was defining it as static variable. And I define it in BaseClass so that I dont have to define it again in each subclass.
Is there any better way? Thanks

How to assign a value to ODI Variable using ODI Procedure

Hi ,
Is it possible to assign a value to a ODI Variable using ODI Procedure ?
If it is possible how we can do that.

In my example I have 2 ODI Variables #counter and #Next_increment.
I am trying to assign VALUE TO A ODI VARIABLE #next_increment from another ODI Variable #counter.

Prasanna,
I have a similar requirement where I need to assign values to ODI variables within a procedure. How do we make use of an ODI package to accomplish this ?
Actually, I have a sequence of ODI steps, and there is a call to a procedure 'LOG ERROR' from every step which gets called in case error occurs in any step. I just need to identify from which step the error came.

It would have helped if you had posted your code as CODE but as it is, I could hardly read it. My guess about what you are asking is, if you want a template to return a value, just write that value to the result stream inside the template.
If that wasn't what you were asking, then please post your code in a readable format.

Assigning a value to two variables

I need to assign the same value to two variables is there a way to do this like in some other languages.
e.g. I have the following currently:
l_test := 'valval'
l_counter := 'valval'
I want to condense this down into something simpler such as:
l_test := l_counter := 'valval'
Is anything like this possible?
Many thanks in advance.

Because I need to build up two queries gradually since they depend on situations at runtime i.e. I cannot just write the query in one statement and run it since it is built up gradually based on the application.
One is to obtain the results of the query and the other is purely to count up the results. The reason I am doing this is because it is more efficient than running two CURSORs which is the current situation.
This will result in a cursor containg the results to loop through and a value which equals the number of results. Where the variables will have the same added to them is with the WHERE clause, since the conditions don't change just how they are stored changes. i.e. One is CURSOR to loop through and one is a straight value.

Want to assign a value to a dff (from a sql )whenever the record is saved

Hi
I am new to OAF and would like to know how can i extend my VO and assign a value returned by a sql which returns a value on the basis of some fields from some fields in the same VO .
Thanks
Narinder

Narinder,
You can extend the SEEDED VO by creating a new VO and using the extends property in the VO wizard to refer to the seeded VO. Now in the new VO query you can make changes as appropriate to retrieve your values. The last step is to substitute this VO in the Applicatin so that the newly created Custom VO is used instead of standard to make sure your changes are visible.
Best would be to read the section on Substitution in the Dev guide.

Sumit

Is there a way to request values of configuration variables from EM?

Hi, All.
Please advise is there a way to request values for some configuration variables from EM.
For example there is a variable - DefaultRowsDisplayedInDownload.
How can I get its value in Repository or Analyses?
My use case is: disable navigation in aggregated report with count > DefaultRowsDisplayedInDownload
Thanks in advance.

I dont think you can call them in analysis since these tags are used in the form of xml files used as instructions to the application, within the application you may not use them.
More over there is no syntax as obiee variable to call them.
if helps pls mark as correct/helpful
