Hi Jim,
The problem here is that DIAdem's ActiveX servers still use the old autosequence syntax, where strings constants can be created with the apostrophe ( ' ) character instead of the more usual double-quote ( ") character. So if I were to send a command from LabVIEW to DIAdem to assign the string "hello" to the variable "T1", it would look like this:
T1:= 'hello'
So I agree with you that the ( ' ) character termination is DIAdem's fault, but it would be more a designed behavior than a bug. It was also possible in an autosequence to use the normal ( " ) character to specify a string constant, like this:
T1:= "hello"
Actually, when I try to use the "CmdExecuteSync" method I am able to sidestep the ( ' ) character termination problem, whereas the "TextVarSet" method reproduces it. I'd recommend using the VI equivalent of "CmdExecuteSync":
Set ToCommand = CreateObject("DIAdem.ToCommand")Call ToCommand.CmdExecuteSync("T1:= 'hello'")Call ToCommand.CmdExecuteSync("T1:= ""he'llo""")'Call ToCommand.TextVarSet("T1", """hello""")
'Call ToCommand.TextVarSet("T1", """he'llo""")Call ToCommand.TextVarGet("T1", TextVar)Set ToCommand = Nothing MsgBox TextVar

Setting Prompt Directory path using a string variable?

So when you define a Prompt you get the form P[promptname.wav] and all is good. What we want to do is have that prompt name be retrieved from a prompt directory which is defined by a string. So assume all your prompts have the same numbers like 1001.wav but the actual file is customized based on things like Sales/1001.wav and Marketing/1001.wav and you want to have a StringValue DirectoryName set the Directory to Sales or Marketing. The Script does not seem to support setting P["DirectoryName"/1001.wav] where Directory Name is a string variable. Is there a solution to this other than changing the entire prompt to a string type and dropping the P[] data type entirely?

I am working with a similar issue. It is simple enought to set the Prompt Directory but when it is a variable it seems to have different results. The attached simple script is used to demonstrate Sam's recommendation. The XML document is embedded in the script variable, so you dont need to create it. So the script reaches into the XML document and pulls up the variable strDirectoryName and then adds "/" to it and then sets the strPromptDirectory. I have done it three ways: Hard coded, string value for prompt' and prompt data type resolved from string. As you single step through the script you will find that all values populate appropriately, but only the hard coded play prompt actually plays the prompt. The other two assemblies fail. (Clearly it assumes the prompt 10001.wav is in the directory Generic/ if you want to try it). Written in Version 8.5 editor.

Set "url" in HTTPService using String variable

Hi,
How can I set "url" in HTTPService using String variable (see below). I've tried different formats of string & variable concatenations.

        url="{myurl+'test.php'}"
        method="POST"

Set a string variable equal to a JTextField entry

Like the title says, how could I go about setting a string variable equal to a JTextField entry

Ah, I remember you.
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5267710
You've been told to read the API before.
At least you should show some effort. In your post state, I read the API and I tried this method or that method but it didn't work because of so and so. Otherwise, you may appear lazy, and that just won't do.

How to compare numbers in a string variable?

I have a powershell script that is grabbing the output of a website and storing it into a string variable. What I would like to do is check a line in the output which contains two numbers - the number of emails sent out of the total number of emails.
I have not come up with a way to do this that works. I was thinking of maybe using a regex, but there are other numbers I don't care about that keep getting caught.
Here is a sample of what is contained in the string variable:
Email ID: 46862270 : Succeded. Time Taken: 00:00:00.0924511
Email ID: 46862272 : Succeded. Time Taken: 00:00:00.0493887
-- Sent 250 of 250 emails successfully. Total Dispatch Time: 00:00:08.1406995
--State Written to DB. Time Taken for DB Write: 00:00:00.4611053
Here is another sample:
Email ID: 46865840 : Succeded. Time Taken: 00:00:00.9333887
-- Sent 17 of 17 emails successfully. Total Dispatch Time: 00:00:01.2416905
--State Written to DB. Time Taken for DB Write: 00:00:00.0402957
So if I have the above contained in a variable called $httpResponse how can I find only the line that starts with -- Sent
and then subtract the first number from the second number?
So for example if I have this:
Email ID: 46865840 : Succeded. Time Taken: 00:00:00.9333887
-- Sent 207 of 217 emails successfully. Total Dispatch Time: 00:00:01.2416905
--State Written to DB. Time Taken for DB Write: 00:00:00.0402957
I would want the check to return 10. Is this even possible?
Any help is appreciated!

Sure.
$String = @'
Email ID: 46865840 : Succeded. Time Taken: 00:00:00.9333887
-- Sent 207 of 217 emails successfully. Total Dispatch Time: 00:00:01.2416905
--State Written to DB. Time Taken for DB Write: 00:00:00.0402957
if ( $string -match 'Sent (\d+) of (\d+) emails .+' )
{ $FailedEmailCount = [int]$matches[2] - $matches[1] }
$FailedEmailCount
10
Each set of parens will designate a capture group, and those can be referenced from $Matches after a successful -match.
Just remember that they will all be strings, and to do a math operation you have to cast at least the one on the LH side to a numeric type first.
[string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " "

How to load a text file (ASCII) into a TS string variable?

I need to load a ASCII file into a TS string variable for subsequent processing. I tried the SecuenceBuilder DLL (in the examples directory) but it seems that this DLL has a bug. Some text files are not loaded properly. I have also tried the kernel32 functions (openfile, createfile, readfile ... ) handling them as a C program, but with no success. The property loader feature of TS is not the suitable solution for me, because I would have to modify all my text files to include some specific fields (step name, variables, starmarker ...). Doy you know an alternative procedure to load text files or any DLL that implements what I look for ? Any help would be grateful. Cesar ([email protected])

Hi Cesar,
I don't know if you have found a solution, but attached is a DLL built in VC that will read the text out of a file into a TestStand variable. The attached sequence file \SequenceFile1.seq contains a step type that is set to call the DLL responsible for reading the file. It reads the file specified under Step.FilePath and stores the data in Step.ReadData. Please let me know if this works for you. I have attached the source as well.
Regards,
Bob

EnterProjectStage - reading GUID from a string variable within Workflow created in Visual Studio 2012.

Hi,
I am creating a Project Server Workflow (site workflow) using Visual Studio 2012.
If i set the "EnterProjectStage" activity with a GUID within quotes the workflow works
(as suggested in the MSDN blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/project_programmability/archive/2012/11/07/creating-project-workflows-using-visual-studio-2012.aspx).
However, the GUID of stages will change from environment to environmet (QA, Stage, PROD). So, I tried setting the GUID in a string variable (which i am populating dynamically) and assigned the string variable to the "EnterProjectStage"
activity. However, this dynamic assignment of stage id to "EnterProjectStage" does not work and after deployment the workflow dumps with the following error:
===============================================
Exception Starting Workflow: Sequence contains no elements. Trace: at System.Linq.Enumerable.First[TSource](IEnumerable`1 source) at Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.BusinessLayer.Workflow.<FillWorkflowStatusTableFromXaml>b__47(XElement

===============================================
Is there a way the "EnterProjectStage" can be made dynamic so that it reads from a variable.
Thanks,
Amitava.

Arthur,
Thank you for your reply. But at this point, one of my points of confusion is what software I have available to me. I wish I had a useful central help desk to call up and just say, "Hey, load me up with all of the professional version(s) of Visual
Studio. But I do not know what we have license to. And I kind of need to know what the options are, so that I can ask a specific question of our vast buracracy.
For now, I have downloaded only free versions of Visual Studio client software. Since my company does have servers running Microsoft SQL Server, I am going to assume that we have proper licensing for those servers. But does that server license
allow me to get any professional versions of the PC client software for the various Visual Studio(s) 2012?
And if I get a professional version of Visual Studio 2012, does that do away with the three different flavors that I have right now? I have 2012 versions of SQL Server Management Studio, Visual Studio Express, and Visual Studio Shell (Integrated).
Your feedback is much appreciated.
Thanks!

Regular Expressions and String variables

Hi,
I am attempting to implement a system for searching text files for regular expression matches (similar to something like TextPad, etc.).
Looking at the regular expression API, it appears that you can only match using string variables. I just wanted to make sure this is true. Some of these files might be large and I feel uneasy about loading them into ginormous Strings. Is this the only way to do it? Can I make a String as big as I want?
Thanks,
-Mike

Newlines are only a problem if you're reading the
text line-by-line and applying the regexp to each
line. It wouldn't catch expressions that span
lines.
@sabre150: your note re: CharSequence -- so what
you're suggesting is to implement a CharSequence that
wraps the file contents, and then use the regexps on
the whole thing? I like the idea but it seems like
it would only be easy to implement if the file uses a
fixed-width character set. Or am I missing
something...?You are correct for the most basic implementation. It is very easy to create a char sequence for fixed width character sets using RandomAccessFile. Once you go to character sets such as UTF-8 then more effort is required.
While ever the regex is moving forward thought the CharSequence one char at a time there is no problem because one can wrap a Reader but once it backtracks then one needs random access and one will need to have a buffer. I have used a ring buffer for this which seems to work OK but of course this will not allow the regex to move to any point in the CharSequence.
'uncle_alice' is the regex king round here so listen to him.
:-( I should read further ahead next time!

Replacement string variable in data form

Hi everybody,
in Planning 11.1.2, is it possible to set a replacement variable, with type String, and then use it in a data form to let the user inserting a string value (i.e "actual")?
I need to reuse the value inserted in a business rule. I think to use the @MEMBER to refrence it to the corresponding dimension member.
For example:
If I define a string variable named SCENARIO and the user insert in the data form "actual", can i reference it in a cross-dimension:
Account1->Peiod1->Fy12 -> @MEMBER(SCENARIO)
does this cross-dimension return the value corresponding to Account1->Period1->FY12->Actual?
Thank All
Maurizio

Why you just don't use RPT with type Member ?
Users chose member name from the LOV (no chance for mistake) and run your rule

Calling variable set in Scene 1

apologies for the repost/redo but previous did not work as I
thought it did!
I'm working with Scene 1 with 2 buttons, "Corporate" and
"Editorial" and a movie clip, mcMainScreenArea. I want the buttons
to set a variable which can be called in movie clip
mcMainScreenArea. This variable is then used in mcMainScreenArea
(and later also in another movie clip) to move the timeline along
to a label string set in the variable by the buttons in Scene 1.
With the following scripts the mcMainScreenArea simply plays
the timeline to the next clip - the variable does not appear to be
defined and a trace(this.varSubject); in the code returns
"undefined".
Code for Scene 1 is as follows.
stop();
//Navigation variables
var varSubject:String = "opening";
gotoAndStop(varSubject);
trace(varSubject);
function moveToCorporate(event:MouseEvent):void {
var varSubject:String = "corporate";
gotoAndStop(varSubject);
this.mcMainScreenArea.play();
trace(varSubject);
btn_corporate.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
moveToCorporate);
function moveToEditorial(event:MouseEvent):void {
var varSubject:String = "editorial";
gotoAndStop(varSubject);
this.mcMainScreenArea.play();
trace(varSubject);
btn_editorial.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
moveToEditorial);
The code for mcMainScreenArea is
stop(); //at labels named "corporate" and "editorial"
//and
gotoAndPlay(this.varSubject); //after the labels named
"corporate" and "editorial"

This I find surprising! No way of calling a variable set in
another element? Are there any alternatives to set a variable (or
whatever) to be read by mcMainScreenArea? Is there a way for
mcMainScreenArea to check what button has been clicked without
having the script in Scene 1 telling mcMainScreenArea what button
has been clicked. Pull rather than push the infor from the
button...
Thanks.

How to swap two string variables without using a 3rd variable?

How to swap two string variables without using a 3rd variable?
ex.
A = "aa"

Thanks

How to swap two string variables without using a 3rd
variable?
Something like this.
Append A with B (so A equals "aabb")
Set B equal to a substring of A starting with the first character and ending at A's length minus B's length. (So B equals "aa")
Set A equal to a substring of A starting from B's length and ending at the end of A. (So A equals "bb")

Hi DrClap,
I just wanted to check with you whether I understood your comment correctly.
It's not possible to directly specify a physical file location path, like it is specified for HTTP URL +<c:import url= http://...+, that would internally/automatically convert in one of the form - Reader, Source, Document, String.
It can only be produced/specified explicitly in one of the form - Reader, Source, Document, String.
Am I correct in my understanding?

Tabulator in string variable?

I am using Labview 5.1 and I want to show a header
part of a file in a labview program. I display the
information using a string variable. There are
tabulators in the header string to separate the
information. These tabulators are diplayed as \t
if I use the "\"Code display setting of the string
variable. If I use the normal display setting the
tabulators are only displayed as blanks.
Is it possible to get working tabulators in a
labview string???

Share what you know. Learn what you don't.

One way to get round this would be to use a string array indicator on the
front panel. Then use the 'Spreadsheet string to array' function to turn
your tab text to the string array. Dont forget to connect a string array
constant to the array type connector.

How to catch exception into a String variable ?

I have a code
catch(Exception e)
            e.printStackTrace();
            logger.error("\n Exception in method Process"+e.getMessage());
        }when i open log i find
Exception in method Process null.
But i get a long error message in the server console !! I think thats coming from e.printStackTrace().
can i get the error message from e.printStackTrace() into a String variable ?
I want the first line of that big stacktrace in a String variable.
How ?

A trick is to issue e.printStackTrace() against a memory-based output object.
void      printStackTrace(PrintStream s)
         // Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the specified print stream.
void      printStackTrace(PrintWriter s)
//          Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the specified print writer.Edited by: BIJ001 on Oct 5, 2007 8:54 AM
