Incorrect terminal name for "get variant attributes" (bug?)

According to the help, the output named "values" should change its name to "value" once we wire a name.
This does not seem to be the case (See tip strip in image below) as tested in 2013 and 2014..

In LabVIEW 2013 it changes to value if only the name input is wired. Once you wire the default value, it switches back to values. 50% is true :-)

  • Get Variant Attribute Should Search for and return multiple values based on RegEx

    I am using Variants as lookup tables (see this article):
    Using Variant Attributes to Build a Dictionary or Look-up Table
    I would like to be able to use some sort of wildcard to return multiple results from the Get Variant Attribute VI (all results are of the same type, and I don't know the exact names of all the results - those two points make this idea distinct from this idea: Set/Get Variant Attribute for Multiple Attributes).
    Ideally the wildcard would be RegEx.  If it were, the means by which you specify what to return is standardized.
    In the above example, there would be some ambiguity in terms of whether or not you would want to return a result or an array of results given an input, and I doubt you could detect and assume RegEx is what the programmer desires to use.  So I think this means a new input would be required to specify whether or not the "name" input of the Get Variant Attribute VI should be interpreted as a RegEx query.
     

    Why RegEx? Why not SQL query? Why not filename wildcard matching?
    I don't see anything that makes RegEx special. For this kind of functionality, the code that you've written seems like exactly the right way to do it rather than bolting a RegEx parser or any other system into the primitives or clouding the palette with a bunch of primitives to support various search functions. I could see a primitive that takes a VI refnum that has a conpane of string in/boolean out that you would pass in to supply the filter functionality that you want for any given application, but even that I'd lean toward just letting that be a library that someone writes on top of the primitives. Yes, there is some memory reduction that can be done if it is internal to the primitives, no question about that. But there are so many variations in how to do that filtration/sorting/etc that I'm not confident that any prim would cover a sufficient use case to be worth it. I could be wrong here ... let's see what other comments come in.

  • Pb with "Get Variant Attribute" LabVIEW 6

    hello
    I want to find the value corresponding to the variable name in a Variant structure. For this purpose I use the "Get Variant Attribute" function, but I do not get any good result : no result in the get value, and also when no string name input is given to get all the attribute of the variant.
    where is the bug ?
    thank you

    Hi,
    No bug, Get Variant Attribute returns values you've put in it using Set
    Variant Attribute.
    Unfortunately there is no way (I could think of) to get the text of a
    variant out of the variant in string format.
    Regards,
    Wiebe.

  • Get variant attribute

    I m using LV 6.0.2, the function "get variant attribute" does not work. I
    get nothing out of it: no error, no values.
    Any idea?!
    Actually I could need exactly the string that is shown in a variant
    indicator/control.
    e.g.:
    'Cluster': cluster of 2 elements
    'Array': 1-D array of
    'Numeric': double
    'Boolean': boolean
    'Array' -> (2.000E+0, 2.000E+0)
    'Boolean' -> FALSE
    Has anybody an idea how I can get this as a string?
    Thank You.

    The reason you can't get an attrivute of the vairant is because your variant doesn't have any. Use "Set Variant Attribute" to add an attribute to your variant, and then you should be able to read it back later using the "Get Variant Attribute".

  • Generating VO XML File wih alias names for the view attributes

    Hi,
    I am using the WriteXML() method on a VO to generate the XML. I need to map the generated xml to a rtf template and get the PDF generated. I have some view attributes for those I want to give a meaningful alias names, and for the repeated columns say "Name" for each Name field that I select from different tables it gets reflected as Name, Name1 and so . I want to give them proper alias names like Name as Buyer_Name and Name1 as Supplier_name so that its easy to comprehend and also easier to map to the rtf template. I gave alias names to those columns But the alias names of the view attributes are not getting reflected in the XML file generated. The XML tags are still on the attribute Name and not the aliases. Can someone suggest a workaround for this
    Thanks a lot in advance
    Rakesh

    Just to confirm that this is not a Library or deployment setup problem, Now, I changed the deployment scope to include business components in the ViewController to just to be sure it was being picked up in the ViewController too. I Created a separate AppModule in the ViewController and Added the VO to it, It Ran Properly including the Addition and Commit Control.

  • How can i give 2 different names for the same attribute in querypannelVC

    Hi
    I have a View criteria and exposing as a query panel.In the VC, we are using one VO attribute instance twice"FullName".We have a requirement of display 2 different names for this attribute in the query panel Ui.Attached the VC screenshot.
    Ex:Present in the Query panel Ui fields are displaying like
    FullName
    FullName
    Requirement:
    Owner
    Assignee
    Thanks in Advance,
    Naga

    Hi Thanks for the reply..So are you saying like add the same "FullName" attribute twice with different Alias Names(Owner,Assignee) ?But here we are having the FullName as common and depends upon role we are displaying "Owner" or "Assignee".If i create two instances for same attribute will it not be like redundancy ?

  • Incorrect artist name for all songs by that artist

    Recently something weird has happened to my music library on my iPhone 5S (iOS 8.2 before, but I've updated to 8.3 and still the issue persists). All the songs by a particular artist have the artist name listed wrongly. For example, I have about 50 Katy Perry songs from her 3 albums, and all of them are listed as "Katy Perry & Snoop Dogg", which is, by the way, the artist name for ONLY California Gurls. Funny thing is, the artist names display correctly on iTunes on my MacBook Pro. I've checked the info for the songs, and the names are correct under both Details and Sorting. This happens for a few other artists as well.
    I've tried deleting the songs from my iPhone and re-syncing them back, still the same. I've tried changing the artist, album artist info for the songs, doesn't help. I've even re-synced my entire music library to my iPhone but that didn't work either.
    Probably a bug but is there a workaround or a fix for this?

    UPDATE!!!
    Turns out that deleting glitchy albums from the phone and then re-syncing via Home computer's iTunes worked!
    It just takes a bit longer to change over to the proper artist names!!!
    YAYY!!!!
    So deleting music from iPhone Music Library and then going into your home iTunes Library and re-syncing/adding it to your iphone or device while it is plugged in via USB!

  • What is the appropriate product name for CSS 11500 on Bug Toolkit

    Today I tried to search DDTs of CSS 11500 on Bug Toolkit (http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/Support/Bugtool/home.pl), however I can not find out appropriate product name corresponding to CSS 11500.
    Before I had searched DDTs of CSS 11500 on Bug Toolkit many times, at that time, if my memory correct..
    I selected "Cisco CSS 11500 Series Content Services Switches" in the list of "Search for bugs in other Cisco software and hardware products" on Bug Toolkit.
    But I can not find this product name today.
    Do you know what product name appropriate for CSS 11500 on Bug Toolkit ?
    Your information would be appreciated.
    Best regards,

    Hi Gilles,
    Thank you for your cooperation.
    Today, I can find the CSS at "new Bug Toolkit".
    http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/action.do?hdnAction=searchBugs
    Select Product Category: Application Networking Services
    Select Product: Cisco CSS 11000 Series Content Services

  • Safari created an incorrect user name for my hotmail account and I am unable to access it

    I have a hotmail email account that I recently had to reset the password.  Safari created the wrong user name leaving of one letter ("l) and I am unable to access the account.  I am also unable to manually change the user name; it keeps referring back to the incorrect name.  I have Safari 7.1 on my MacBook Pro.  I have been in contact with hotmail at Microsoft and they have been unable to help me further and indicate I must bring this to Safari support which I am doing.  If I use another browser (Firefox) I am able to get into the account but it would be nice to have this back on Safari.  Appreciate help.

    I was able to locate the source in Website Data.....it was set up via mail.live.com through Microsoft/Outlook.   They have changed their format considerably very recently.  Anyway removing that one entry (.live) and then using a new password I was able to bring up the original email program although it's no longer known as Hotmail but Outlook.  So I guess the problem was in Safari...I don't know how that user name was changed.  It may have been a typo error on my part and the corrupted name was maintained by Safari?  Anyway all is good now. Thanks for your help.

  • Default Subpackage Names for Business Components (11g); Bug?

    Does anyone know how to enable the ability to specify the default packages under Tools -> Default Project Properties ->Business Components -> Packages?
    Mine are all greyed out.
    Also, even when I have the bare minimum of an ADF model project, before even checking "Initialize Project for Business Components", the defalt packages are greyed out.
    Further, once I do check "Initialize Project for Business Components", the section for Default Subpackage Names is complete gone.
    I want to be able to specifiy the subpackages, so that when I regenerate entities etc. from tables the components go to the right packages.
    Thanks for any help.

    This seems like a bug to me. If you select Initialize Project for Business Components, everything is enabled. And stays that way even after you open a different application.
    But , You can set these values under Tools - Preferences - Business Components - Packages. This works nicely. Once you set these, create a new application and things will be fine. If you have existing application, it may require some xml file (.jpr) manipulation. That seems to be a nicer approach. I don't know what is the purpose of Default Project Properties, when you can set everything by Tools - Preferences.

    Edi.

    Yes I did get this feedback ..
    Hi Edi,
    As per the standard SAP, once you have assigned characteristics and values fields to your operating concern (KEA0), you can't de-assign them. When characteristics or values fields are in assigned status, you can't delete them.
    But I hope there won't be much problem of having that characteristic also. If you look at performance wise, then instead of deleting, make "not used" under profitability segment characteristics, remove from the characteristic groups etc. While doing so, please check any derivation rules written based on these, or any assessment cycles defined with these also..
    Regards...

    Can anybody please suggest how to check terminal name for that table in oracle.You seriously expect Oracle to keep a record of all possible technical information about people who create objects on the database? Next you'll be wanting to know which version of MS Windows or Unix they were running, and what Office product they have installed, and whether their client CPU has 2 or 4 cores etc.
    Seriously, Oracle only stores basic information about things... if you need more you need to manually ensure things are in place to record such facts.
