Format string problem

Hi,
Sorry if this has already been asked, couldn't find it in the pages of results that came up for string formatting.
I'm trying to output a string to serial, to control a robot arm for my undergrad final year project. At the moment it'll work if I put in a manually typed in string, but I want to make a nice VI GUI for the 'bot. To do this I need combined strings
eg
at the moment if I type in "joint\s1\s90\r\n", I'll get the 1st joint to move 90 degrees, and a return and a new line.
However, if I have these things combined using format string or concatenate string, it won't run.
Any ideas why? No one in my college seems to know, so I thought I'd ask here.
Thanks

Did you try something like this?
Note: All strings are displayed as slash code...

  • ViScanf invalid format string due to #sample size data1, data2,... response

    I'm writing a program which will utilize the internal memeory of the Agilent 34410A DMM for making fast measurements (10K/s).  In order to do this, I need to setup a test, have the data stored to the internal memory, then read and delete it, while other measurements are still happening.  The best command for the read/delete function is the R? command, but it returns the data in a strange format which breaks the ViScanf format string.  
    an example of the R? reading in below:
    R? 2
    #231+2.87536000E-04,+3.18131400E-03
    Is there a way to setup the ViScanf format string to handle this?
    Thanks
    Ryan

    Yes, I am using CVI
    If it was just returning one value I would use a simple viScanf function like this:
    viScanf (vi, "%f", fbuf);
    If you do a READ from in the instrument, it returns an array of floats so you need to adjust you viScan fuction parse the string into an array of floats like this (array of 500 for this example):
    viScanf(vi, "%,500f", fbuf);
    The problem is the data response to the R? command starts with the array size and is then followed by the data (#231+2.87536000E-04,+3.18131400E-03).  In the previous example, I need to delete the #, and parse the 231 into an array size variable and then fill an array (fbuf in this case) with the data.

  • SQL LOADER and ORA-01861: literal does not match format string

    Hi,
    I've to load data through control_file(.ctl) into oracle table through sqlldr. Oracle 11g, win xp.
    as soon as I use - sqlldr dss/dss control=orders.ctl I get error or nothing.
    Text file that is generated after loading fails has the following error.
    Record 1: Rejected - Error on table ORDERS, column O_ORDERDATE.
    ORA-01861: literal does not match format string
    I have checked the format of data to be loaded into Orders table is like this : *1996-01-02.*
    I checked the format of data in my database by querying sysdate from dual i.e. 10-JAN-10
    I thought that changing its format might solve my problem so i tried this:
    SQL> alter session set nls_date_format='YYYY-MM-DD';
    Session altered.
    SQL> select sysdate from dual;
    SYSDATE
    2010-01-10but still i'm getting the same error. I've to load millions of data. how I can solve this issue.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks alot.

    Hi,
    It's strange ....nobody knew it?. I think this type of load problem will be very common isn't it.... where date column data is in a different format than in the db i.e.
    How to change *1996-01-02* in the Control_file to make it able to load in the table where sysdate is like this: *11-JAN-10*
    Sample data to be loaded is :
    1|36901|O|173665.47|1996-01-02|5-LOW|Clerk#000000951|0|nstructions sleep furiously among |
    Desc Orders
    O_ORDERDATE NOT NULL DATEI have tested this by creating a test table and a test control file by omitting this O_ORDERDATE and then everything was fine, data was inserted but don't know how to load this DATE also.
    Also not able to understand about POSITION in the control file...?

  • SQL Error: ORA-01861: literal does not match format string

    Hello,
    I'm trying to do data mining on a web log which recorded one day web access information from a busy web server. I imported the data into Oracle Data miner, and created a table (WEBLOG). The idea is to create a new field, i.e. session, for the users so that each session could be thought as a representative of a user-intent (aka topic). Now based on this, data mining models would be used to cluster(group) the users based on their similarity. The first step is to prepare the data which involves using SQL queries. So first, all I did was to create a function for date and time. This is the following code I used,
    create or replace function ssndate(p_date in varchar2 default '03-01-18',
    p_time in varchar2)
    return number
    $if dbms_db_version.ver_le_10 $then
    deterministic
    $elsif dbms_db_version.ver_le_11 $then
    result_cache
    $end
    as
    begin
    return trunc((to_date(p_date||' '||p_time, 'dd-mm-yy hh24:mi:ss')
    - to_date('01-01-90','dd-mm-yy')) * (86400/2400));
    end ssndate;
    The function ssndate compiled successfully.
    The next step I took was to create a view through the following query,
    create or replace view WEBLOG_VIEWS
    as
    select (select ssndate(LOG_DATE, LOG_TIME) from dual) as "SESSION_DT",
    C_IP,
    CS_USER_AGENT,
    (CS_URI_STEM||'?'||CS_URI_QUERY) as WEB_LINK
    from WEBLOG;
    This was successful as well. The problem is in the next step where I try to do data grouping.
    create table FINAL_WEBLOG as
    select SESSION_DT, C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT,
    listagg(WEB_LINK, ' ')
    within group(order by C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT) "WEB_LINKS"
    from WEBLOG_VIEWS
    group by C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT, SESSION_DT
    order by SESSION_DT
    For this, I got the error,
    Error starting at line 1 in command:
    create table FINAL_LOG as
    select SESSION_DT, C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT,
    listagg(WEB_LINK, ' ')
    within group(order by C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT) "WEB_LINKS"
    from WEBLOG_VIEWS
    group by C_IP, CS_USER_AGENT, SESSION_DT
    order by SESSION_DT
    Error at Command Line:1 Column:7
    Error report:
    SQL Error: ORA-01861: literal does not match format string
    ORA-06512: at "DMUSER.SSNDATE", line 11
    ORA-06512: at line 1
    01861. 00000 - "literal does not match format string"
    *Cause:    Literals in the input must be the same length as literals in
    the format string (with the exception of leading whitespace).
    If the "FX" modifier has been toggled on, the literal must
    match exactly, with no extra whitespace.
    *Action:   Correct the format string to match the literal.
    I don't know where I'm going wrong with this.. the to_date function should be fine. In the data that I possess, the date and time are in no format. Example: 30118 and 0:00:09 respectively. If anyone has any clue about this I would be sincerely grateful for any help that I can get!! It's quite urgent..
    The Oracle version is 11.2.0.1.0

    Ok.. Looks like I touched a nerve there. I apologize. I'm still a student, and this is the first time that I've tried something at this level. I'm still in the learning process, so I was hoping that someone could point me in the right direction in order to "fix" the data.Not so much touching a nerve as simply trying to implement a very very poor, but all too common, practice. Since you are a student (which we didn't know until this post) most people will cut you some slack. However, this little exchange should now be burned into your brain as you move forward. One of the very first rules of programming is to ALWAYS use the correct data types for your data. And along with that, never ever depend on implicit type conversions - always use the proper explicit conversion functions.
    And as a slight follow-on, when considering the appropriate data type, don't assume that just because we refer to a given element as a 'something number' that it is indeed a number. Telephone "numbers" are NOT numbers. U.S. Social Security "numbers" are NOT numbers. U.S. Postal Zip codes are NOT numbers. All are just character strings which, by convention, we limit to the same characters we use to represent numbers.
    And since this entire discussion came up around the representation of dates, you might want to take a look at http://edstevensdba.wordpress.com/2011/04/07/nls_date_format/
    Now, go forth and be a smarter programmer than your peers.

  • Can I use bpws:getVariableData() within oraext:format-string() ?

    I have problem in using the following expression in my "Assign" activity:
    oraext:format-string('|{0}|',bpws:getVariableData('inputVariable','payload','/client:process/client:name_param))
    I get the following error
    <env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><env:Header/><env:Body><env:Fault><faultcode>env:Server</faultcode><faultstring>XPath expression failed to execute.
    An error occurs while processing the XPath expression; the expression is oraext:format-string(‘|{0}|',bpws:getVariableData('inputVariable','payload','/client:process/client: name_param')).
    The XPath expression failed to execute; the reason was: internal xpath error.
    Check the detailed root cause described in the exception message text and verify that the XPath query is correct.
    </faultstring><faultactor/><detail><exception/></detail></env:Fault></env:Body></env:Envelope>
    Strangely, I can use the following expressions:
    1. concat('|', bpws:getVariableData('inputVariable','payload','/client:process/client:name_param))
    2. oraext:format-string('|{0}|', 'A value')
    Hence, it seemed to me that oraext:format-string() can't take the return value of bpmw:getVariableData() for some unknown reason.
    As I need to use the "format-string" function to create a complicated value based on a number of input values , I need to find a way to work around this.
    Otherwise, I am force to use the "concat" function which make it extra ugly to build the value I need.
    Please help!

    You need to wrap each parameter with striing().
    Something like this: oraext:format-string(*string*($inputVariable.payload/client:inputBase), string($inputVariable.payload/client:inputVal0))
    This way the oraext:format-string will work fine from bpel assign activity as well.

  • Format String with pattern

    Hi Folks,
    my Problem is that i need to format a String by using a pattern.
    The Input String is like "20081208" and the Output String has to be "2008-12-08".
    I could simply do this by using String.substring but i think it's not that elegant.
    Also i found a way by doing it with SimpleDateFormat.
    But it needs to much lines of code to do this as it's worth.
    Is there a simple way like String.format just to do this in one line?
    I'd like to pass the String which should be formatted and a format String to a method and it gives me the result.
    Thanks in advance,
    xtremliep

    Darryl.Burke wrote:
    System.out.println("20081208".replaceAll("(\\d{4})(\\d{2})(\\d{2})", "$1-$2-$3"));Note that if you're processing a large amount of data, this will almost certainly be slower than using a StringBuffer as already advised by two members.You can get a big performance boost by pre-compiling the regex and instantiating the Matcher ahead of time:
    static final Matcher matcher = Pattern.compile("(\\d{4})(\\d{2})(\\d{2})").matcher("");
    String newString = matcher.reset(oldString).replaceFirst("$1-$2-$3"); It will probably still be slower than the StringBuilder solution, but not by much. Of course, if the data is really huge, even a very small difference can have a noticeable impact.

  • SSIS OLE DB Data Source: literal does not match format string

    Dear All,
    this is my first post on this forum, so sorry if I choose wrong category for this question, but I stuck...
    I'm using SSIS from SQL Server 2k8 R2 in Windows Server 2k8 R2. I have installed Oracle Client 10.2.0.2 32 bits and Oracle Client 10.2.0.4 64bits. I want to connect to Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i by these clients.
    Unfortunately when I want to see a preview, only error occurs to me:
    ORA-01861: literal does not match format string (OraOLEDB)
    I have read a lot about this issue but nothing helps me (to_date, cast, convert etc.).
    This is query which I use:
    SELECT COMPANYID, TRANSACTIONTYPE, TRANSACTIONDATE,
    PRODUCT, PRODUCTIONSITE, BATCHNUMBER,
    BINNUMBER, QUANTITYSTOCKUNIT, QUANTITY,
    UNITOFMEASURE, TRANSACTIONCURRENCYID, COST
    FROM APPS.DW_PRODUCTION
    WHERE TRANSACTIONDATE >= '20050101'
    AND TRANSACTIONDATE &lt; '99991231'I have investigated that the problem is with TRANSACTIONDATE column (which is VARCHAR2 data type in database).
    I want also inform You that the same query in SSIS 2005 on Windows 2005 64 bits worked fine.
    Could You help me to find a solution?

    Dear All,
    this is my first post on this forum, so sorry if I choose wrong category for this question, but I stuck...
    I'm using SSIS from SQL Server 2k8 R2 in Windows Server 2k8 R2. I have installed Oracle Client 10.2.0.2 32 bits and Oracle Client 10.2.0.4 64bits. I want to connect to Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i by these clients.
    Unfortunately when I want to see a preview, only error occurs to me:
    ORA-01861: literal does not match format string (OraOLEDB)
    I have read a lot about this issue but nothing helps me (to_date, cast, convert etc.).
    This is query which I use:
    SELECT COMPANYID, TRANSACTIONTYPE, TRANSACTIONDATE,
    PRODUCT, PRODUCTIONSITE, BATCHNUMBER,
    BINNUMBER, QUANTITYSTOCKUNIT, QUANTITY,
    UNITOFMEASURE, TRANSACTIONCURRENCYID, COST
    FROM APPS.DW_PRODUCTION
    WHERE TRANSACTIONDATE >= '20050101'
    AND TRANSACTIONDATE < '99991231'
    I have investigated that the problem is with TRANSACTIONDATE column (which is VARCHAR2 data type in database).
    I want also inform You that the same query in SSIS 2005 on Windows 2005 64 bits worked fine.
    Could You help me to find a solution?
    Thanks in advance,

    Thanks in ADv...

    Hi,
    It is the Date Data type...There's your problem then; NEVER, EVER, EVER to_date a date!! As you have discovered, it leads to problems when your code is run on different clients due to the different NLS settings they may have. You've been lucky, in other words, that your code has been working at all!
    What to_dating a date does is this:
    to_date(to_char(date_value, <format in NLS_DATE_FORMAT parameter>), <format in NLS_DATE_FORMAT parameter>) You've been lucky because your NLS_DATE_FORMAT has the same format as the data, on your client. On the database, however, it is clearly different.
    Simply remove the to_date from your already-a-date value, and you should find that it works fine.

  • DateValidator, Configuration error: Incorrect formatting string

    Hi guys,
    I am struggling with a DateValidator issue, I hope someone can help me
    Here is the parts of code needed to check what's wrong:
    public const DATE_FORMAT:String = "DD/MMMM/YYYY";
    <mx:DateFormatter id="dateFormatter" formatString="{DATE_FORMAT}" />
    <mx:DateValidator
    id="firstDateValidator" inputFormat="{DATE_FORMAT}" required="true"
    source="{firstDate}" property="text" />
    <mx:DateFiel id="firstDate" labelFunction="doLabel" />
    private function doLabel(item:Date):String
         return dateFormatter.format(item);
    I need to format and validate the following example: 13/January/2011
    When I use DATE_FORMAT = "DD/MM/YYYY", I have no problem to format and validate the Datefield, I have 13/01/2011.
    But when I use DATE_FORMAT = "DD/MMMM/YYYY", I have the following error message with the validator (the formatter is working well):
    Configuration error: Incorrect formatting string.
    Thank you very much for your help.

    Standard Flex validator out of the box is very fragile when it comes to validate "non-standard" date formats. You should extend this DateValidator with your own version like I do, that re-implements "format" function call and rewrites private function "validateFormatString" from the the scratch.
    Here is the my implementation of this function:
    private static function validateFormatString(validator : DateRangeValidator,
                                                         separatorSign : String,
                                                         formatPartsArray : Array,
                                                         baseField : String) : ValidationResult {
                var formatPartsValidationObject : Object = {dayValid : false,
                    monthValid : false,
                    yearValid : false};
                var formatsLength : int = formatPartsArray.length;
                var mask:String;           
                for (var i : int  = 0; i < formatsLength; i++) {
                    mask = formatPartsArray[i];               
                    switch (mask) {
                        case "M" :
                        case "MM" :
                        case "MMM" :                       
                        case "MMMM" :
                            formatPartsValidationObject.monthValid = true;
                            break;
                        case "YY" :
                        case "YYYY" :
                            formatPartsValidationObject.yearValid = true;
                            break;                   
                        case "D" :
                        case "DD" :                   
                            formatPartsValidationObject.dayValid = true;                       
                            break;                       
                if (formatPartsValidationObject.monthValid &&
                    formatPartsValidationObject.dayValid &&
                    formatPartsValidationObject.yearValid) {
                    return null; // Passes format validation
                } else {
                    return new ValidationResult(
                        true, baseField, "format",
                        validator.formatError);
    formatPartsArray is calculated as follows:  
    var formatPartsArray : Array = inputFormat.split("/");

  • Parsing formatted String to Int

    How can I parse formatted string to Integer ?
    I have a formated string like this $900,000 and I need to convert it to 900000 so I could do calculations with it.
    I tried something like this
    NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getIntegerInstance(request.getLocale());
    ttlMargin=nf.parse(screenVal);I got this exception
    "java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "$1,050,000""

    I am working on the JSP file that provides
    margins,sales etc. I am reading this data off the
    screen where it is beeing displayed according to the
    accounting practices.
    That's why I get it as a formatted string and why I
    am trying covert that string to the numberScreen-scraping is a problematic, bad design. It sounds like what you really want is to call a web service which returns its results as data that a program can understand (XML, for example), not HTML (which is meant more for humans to read). I know, you probably can't change the design at this point... just food for thought. In the meantime, you'll probably have to manually parse those strings yourself by stripping out the '$' and ',' characters and then use parseInt on the result.

  • How to get the system date format string?

    Hello, everybody!
    I want to create a MaskFormatter with a mask for dates. So, I could suply as the constructor parameter: "##/##/####'. However, what if the year comes first in the current system date format settings, or the month is in the second place or in the first?... So, I can't just suppose that the current locale format for dates is like the one above. So, my question is: is there a way to get the SYSTEM DATE FORMAT STRING in Java? Searching in google I saw that this was already asked in this forum:
    http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=301034&messageID=1193794
    but there was no effective answer. Does someone already know how to get this?
    Thank you.

    System.out.println(sdf.toPattern());
    will output something like dd/MM/yy HH:mm

  • Parse XML formatted String

    Hi All,
       I have a string field that is formatted in XML format. What I want to be able to do is pull a specific element from the xml formatted string.
    Example string:
    <customer><name>john</name><id>25636</id></customer>
    I want to retreive just the id number of 25636 from this string.
    I would I go about accomplishing this?
    Thank you in advance,

    I fixed it on my own.
    Here' s my answer for others that may need it:
    if(instr({field.xmlstring},'</id>')  - instr({field.xmlstring},'<id>') = 7)then
       mid(totext({field.xmlstring}),instr({field.xmlstring},'<id>')+4,3)
    else if(instr({field.xmlstring},'</id>')  - instr({field.xmlstring},'<id>') = 8)then
       mid(totext({field.xmlstring}),instr({field.xmlstring},'<id>')+4,4)
    else if(instr({field.xmlstring},'</id>')  - instr({field.xmlstring},'<id>') = 9)then
       mid(totext({field.xmlstring}),instr({field.xmlstring},'<id>')+4,5)
    I use the conditions to cover all possible lengths of the id number.
