Increment Variable Name?

Hi, I am wondering how to increment a variable name suffix in a loop to check all variables in a series.  I have the following variables:
ANI1
ANI2
ANI3
ANI10
I want to compare the contact ANI to each of the ANI1 through ANI10 variables to look for a match.  So, would like the comparison to increment the number to check each of the 10 variables, like
if (iterator < 10) Then
    if (ANI==ANIBlock#)
         then do something
    increment iterator
How can I increment the # in the ANIBlock, to go through ANIBlock1, ANIBlock2, ANIBlock3, ... during the loop?
Thanks

I suppose I could do a giant OR statement for the IF, but that could get ugly...
if (iterator < 10) Then
    if (ANI==ANIBlock1 || ANI==ANIBlock2 || ANI==ANIBlock3 || ANI==ANIBlock4 || ANI==ANIBlock5...)
         then do something
    increment iterator

  • Is it possible to add a property using variable in variable name?

    I want to query for a list of virtual machines within a folder, then create a menu of the host names using forms.  Since the list of machines is subject to change, I want to build the list each time the script is run, rather than build off a static
    list. 
    For each virtual machine I need to create the list of variables below:
    $hostnameX = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.checkbox
    $hostnameX.Location = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(10,20)
    $hostnameX.Size = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(100,20)
    $hostnameX.Checked = $true
    $hostnameX.Text = "Type"
    $hostnameX.Controls.Add($hostnameX)
    The location and size values need to be incremented but I think I can figure that part out.
    I can use New-Variable to generate the initial variable. But I receive errors using the same method to try to create a new property for the variable.
    $VMS = Get-Cluster MyCLUS | Get-vApp "My vApp" | Get-VM | Select Name,PowerState | Sort Name
    For ($i=0; $i -lt ($VMS.count); $i++)
    $VMS[$i].Name
    $VMGUEST = "$($VMS[$i].Name)" -replace("-","")
    New-Variable "CB$VMGUEST" "New-Object System.Windows.Forms.checkbox"
    New-Variable "CB$VMGUEST.Location" "New-Object System.Drawing.Size(10,20)"
    In the above, $CBVMGUEST1 =  New-Object System.Windows.Forms.checkbox which is what I want,  but $CBVMGUEST1.Location is not set.
    Is there way to add a property using a variable in the variable name?  Or any other suggestions on how to tackle this issue?

    Hi,
    maybe another approach is a bit easier.
    Use a hash-array like
    $CB = @{}
    $CB[$VMGUEST] = New-Object System.Windows.Forms....
    $CB[$VMGUEST].Location = New-Object System.Drawing....
    Mit freundlichen Grüßen Jens Kalski
    That's the correct answer.  Anytime you find yourself wanting to create variables named "Widget1", "Widget2", "Widget3", etc... it's a pretty clear indication that what you really need is a collection object of some sort.  That might be an array,
    a hashtable, or any other data structure for holding other objects, depending on your specific needs.

  • Use a variable name within a function?

    here's my function....
    myInterval = setInterval (TTMO,15);
    function TTMO () {
    InstanceNameOfMovieClip._x -= (InstanceNameOfMovieClip._x -
    _xmouse)/10;
    InstanceNameOfMovieClip._y -= (InstanceNameOfMovieClip._y -
    _ymouse)/10-2;
    instead of using the "InstanceNameOfMovieClip" can i use a
    variable name? i've tried, but it doesn't work. i also tried using
    the correct hierarchy too, such as this._parent.VariableName
    too.

    you need to concat the linkage to the movieclip using your
    string variable like this
    var mcName_str = "bigBox_mc";
    this[mcName_str]._x = 20;
    you can use this method for looping through incrementally
    named objects
    for(var i:Number=0;i<10;i++)
    this["mc"+i]._x = 20;
    hope that helped

  • Same variable name causes major issues.....

    I would like to get some input and possible direction on the issue below... I am new to PL/SQL. Thanks in advance.....
    ..... The system is in the middle of processing a “For” step, i.e. a given “For” step is incomplete.
    ..... The script instructs the system to process a second “For” step with the same “for-loop variable” as the incomplete “For” step.
    When the above takes place, the system processes the second “For” step incorrectly. Instead of starting at the first value in the second “For” step’s list of values, the system begins in the middle of the value list.
    I need to change the current implementation so that if a "For" loop is encountered that has the same “loop variable” as a “For” loop already being executed, the “state” of the previous “For” step is discarded, and the state for the new “For” step is initialized to the first value in its list.
    -- Used for "for" steps
    TYPE for_list is table of varchar2(4000) index by binary_integer;
    TYPE for_loop_state is record (
    list for_list,
    next_index integer
    TYPE for_loops_list is table of for_loop_state index by steps.output_param%TYPE;
    all_for_loops for_loops_list;
    procedure for_step(list_string IN varchar2, ret_var_name IN varchar2, end_for_label IN varchar2) is
    state for_loop_state;
    end_idx number;
    list_value varchar2(4000);
    begin
    pkg_util.log('ret_var_name value after begin: ' || ret_var_name, 'I');
    -- get the current for list state, based on its output variable name
    if all_for_loops.exists(ret_var_name) then
    state := all_for_loops(ret_var_name);
    else
    state.next_index := 0;
    list_value := parse_next_param(list_string, 1, end_idx);
    -- end_idx is thrown away; for loops only have 1 input parameter (the list)
    state.list := get_for_list(list_value);
    all_for_loops(ret_var_name) := state;
    end if;
    if state.next_index < state.list.count then
    pkg_session_values.put(ret_var_name, state.list(state.next_index));
    all_for_loops(ret_var_name).next_index := state.next_index + 1;
    else
    all_for_loops.delete(ret_var_name);
    jump(end_for_label);
    end if;
    end;

    There is so much of your code hidden from view it is impossible to tell you anything other than perhaps suggest a methodology.
    Create a single variable with a known value and use dbms_output to view it as it steps through each piece of the puzzle. Determine when the value does something you don't want.

  • Using a variable's definition as a variable name

    I have a string variable with definition I need to use as a
    variable name.
    For example, this is super simplified:
    var newVariable = 'it is working';
    var partOne:String = 'new';
    var partTwo:String = 'Variable';
    var partThree = partOne + partTwo;
    trace("my variable is " + partThree);
    Instead of tracing partThree as literally partOne + partTwo
    (which traces "newVariable") i'd like it to trace the
    Definition of partOne + partTwo (which is "it is working").
    I hope this makes sense, help or advice is
    appreciated.

    ...
    var partThree = this[partOne + partTwo];
    trace("my variable is " + partThree); //will trace: my

  • Error while using the variable name "VARIABLE" in variable substitution

    Hi Experts,
      I am using variable substitution to have my output filename set as a payload field value. It is working fine when I am using the variable name as fname, subs etc but channel goes in error when I am using the variable name as "VARIABLE". This is probably a reserved word but i would like to know where i can find a detailed documentation on this. Say things to note / restrictions while using variable substitution.
    This is the error in the channel:
    Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error during variable substitution: java.text.ParseException: Variable 'variable' not found in variable substitution table: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: Error during variable substitution: java.text.ParseException: Variable 'variable' not found in variable substitution table
    Thanks,
    Diya

    Hi Zevik,
    Thanks for the reply. The output file is created correctly by merely changing the variable name to something else and hence the doubt.
    Below is the configuration:

    Output xml structure:

  • Problem with variable name in ZXRSRTOP include (virtual KF)

    Hi all,
    I am coding a routine to use a virtual key figure in the BEx.
    I have just a little problem with the name of a variable:
    as explained in the documentation, I created the variable with the prefix G_POS_, the name of the infocube and the name of the infoobject all together:
    DATA: G_POS_BC_ST_003_C_DIV__C_COMPAR   type i.
    The problem is that this variable name is longer than 30 characters, so the system doesn't accept it.
    Is there a workaround, other than changing the name of the infoobject (which is a navigational attribute)?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Loï

    Hello Marc,
    I understand that I have to use a concatenate function and a dynamic call of the variable with (variable) instruction, but i do not understand how to implement it.
    the infocube name is BC_ST_003
    the characterisdtic name is C_DIV__COMPAR
    So, in the include ZXRSRTOP the statement
    DATA : G_POS_BC_ST_003_C_DIV__COMPAR
    does not work due a length problem (see first post)
    But in the same include the statement
    +DATA: l_global_name type c.
    concatenate 'GPOS' 'BC_ST_003' 'C_DIV__C_COMPAR' into l_global_name separated by '_'.+
    drives to the following error : statement is not accessible.
    Could u please provide me with an example of the code in the include ZXRSRTOP, and in the include ZXRSRZZZ for the use of this variable.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Dynamic Variable name (for int/long) from a String variable

    Hi,
    I want to give a int/long variable name from a String.
    for ex.
    String str = lookup + "Id";
    lookup is a String variable coming from XML. Now, for instance lookup="name". So str = "nameId".
    Now I want to create a int/long variable by nameId.
    Could anybody tell me the way how to do. Please don't tell to use MAP.
    Edited by: Shah on Dec 5, 2007 3:26 PM

    Well you can't. Use a Map.
    The compiler translates variable names into slot numbers, either within an object or withing the local "stack frame" and these slot numbers are assigned names at compile time. No new slots can be created at run time. Java is not Basic.
    Reflection allows you to find existing field names and methods (not local variables), so it's possible to map, for example, XML attribute names to field names or setters in an object but the names have to be known at compile time.

  • Labview IMAQ VI for capturing images and saving with incremental file names

    Hello,
    I am using LabView 7.1(IMAQ) to capture images with NI's PCI 1426 card, and a JAI CV-M2 camera. Now, with the example VI's like LL Grab, or LL Sequence, or Snap and Save to File.vi, I can capture the images. But what I actually want is to capture images continuously and keep saving them with a sequentially incrementing file name.
    I have tried to modify the Snap and Save to File.vi  by adding a 'for loop', so as to run this for required number of images. This works okay, but I can't really change the file name after every image. However, I'm not confident with this method either. I think it would be better to use the buffer itself, as is given in LL Grab.vi and somehow save images from the buffer. I think this would be faster ?
    In any case, any ideas as to how I should go about implementing auto-incrementing of the file name ?
    Any help will do. 
    Thanks.
    - Prashant

    Hi,
    Thanks a lot for replying. 
    I tried using this in the VI i was working with, but using the "build path" vi doesnt seem to work. If I use just the base path from user's input, it works, but then again it keeps overwriting the images into one file rather than giving each file a new name. I'm attaching the vi. 
    Please take a look and tell me where i'm going wrong.
    Thanks again.

  • Presentation Variable name being passed as value

    I have a requirement where value needs to be checked against two separate fields for filtering (as OR statement). But there should be ability to filter on these fields separately as well.
    Dashboard prompt:
    Province [Multi search]
    State [Multi search]
    Combined search (Province OR State Fields) [Edit Box] --- used to pass presentation variable
    Report filter:
    Province is prompted
    AND State is prompted
    AND Province is @{presentation_variable} (no default)
    OR State is @{presentation_variable} (no default)
    But if the text field with presentation variable in not used to filter, then the report shows no result because the presentation variable name itself is taken as a value. Any solution how this can be done making sure that if province only is searched for then the presentation variable is not passed as value and the query returns no results?
    Thanks everyone.

    Thanks Rachit, that helps. For the scenario mentioned initially, even this works:
    Province is @{presentation_variable} (no default)
    OR State is @{presentation_variable} (no default)
    But the challenge is if I want to add another filter (like country) also as a filter. When users filter only on country, then the report shows no results because no value has been passed to the presentation variable and the query generated uses presentation variable name as the value!

  • How do I create a variable name on the fly?

    Hi,
    If I have a String containing a value, how do I create a variable name using that value during program execution? That is if I have
    String fred = "newvar";
    How do I then create a new String with the name "newvar" (using the contents of fred)? I will never know what the content of fred is until this point. What I'd like to be able to do is something like
    String fred.subString(0) = "a new value";
    Obviously this won't work but if it did the statement would evaluate to something like
    String newvar = "a new value";
