Simple question - compare Strings with SSIS expression language

SSIS variables - strOne = YES, strTwo = YES. I want to compare strings using ssis expression language (ie inside a variable's expression box, constraint of task flow arrow etc).
Will @strOne == @strTwo be true ? I hope its not like programming languages where you need to do
@strOne.Equals(@strTwo) instead of ==. Also is @strOne == "YES" true ?

([User::strOne] == [User::Strtwo] ? True : False)
The third variable created should be of type boolean if you're using above expression. if its of type int return 0 and 1 instead of False and true

How to split a string with regular expression

Hi.
I need to split a string with a regular expression.
Example
String = "this is; a test";rune haavik;12345;
And I want the output to be:
"this is; a test"
rune haavik
12345
If I use this code:
private void test1()
String str = "\"this is; a test\";rune haavik;12345;";
int i=0;
String[] tmp = str.split(";");
while(i<tmp.length)
System.out.println(tmp);
i++;
Then it splits also in the "" text.
Regards
Rune haavik

Rune haavik:
The most effective way to achieve the end result is, I believe, to read the characters one by one, using a flag that indicates if we are inside quotation or not.
Well, if we are in a mind game, then the following should do.
String[] tmp = str.split(";(?![^\"]*\";)");

Comparing Strings with "If" statements : help please. :-)

I have an assignment for class... and having lots of trouble trying to figure out what I did wrong. I cannot find a solution.. if anyone can help me with this, it'd be much appreciated.
Assignment Write a program to allow the user to calculate the area and perimeter of a square, or the area and circumference of a circle, or the area of a triangle.
To do this, the user will enter one of the following characters: S, C, or T. The program should then ask the user for the appropriate information in order to make the calculation, and should display the results of the calculation. See the example program execution shown in class.
The program should use dialog boxes.
When expecting an S, C, or T, the program should reject other characters with an appropriate message.
Get extra points for allowing both the uppercase and lowercase versions of a valid character to work. Name the program ShapesCalc.java.My error codes are
incomparable types: java.lang.String and Char
cannot find symbol variable output
incomparable types: java.lang.String and Char
incomparable types: java.lang.String and CharI've asked a friend and they said something about Strings cannot be compared in "If" statements... if that is the case.. how is this supposed to be arranged? If you can point me in the right direction, I will be very grateful! :-)

           double length = Double.parseDouble(lengthu);
           double area = length * length;
           double perimeter = length * 4;

How would I go about on the extration of a single char from a String to make it comparable, I don't quite understand this part.Read the [Java API|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/] for the String class and see what methods it has.
I will convert the == to equals() method.If you want to compare primitives (ints, chars etc) then using == is fine. Only when comparing objects do you use the equals method.

Replace string with regular expression

I am new to the regular expression. I am just trying to remove double quotes from a string.
My sample string is sql statement(SELECT "SCHEMA"."TABLE1"."COLUMN1", "SCHEMA"."TABLE1"."COLUMN2" FROM "SCHEMA"."TABLE1", "SCHEMA"."TABLE2" WHERE "SCHEMA"."TABLE1"."COLUMN1" = "SCHEMA"."TABLE2"."COLUMN1" );
This is what I came up with.
String s = query.replaceAll("\\.\"", ".").replaceAll("\"\\.", ".").replaceAll("\\s\"", " ").replaceAll("\\s\"", " ").replaceAll("\",", ",").replaceAll("\"\\s", " ");
But I want to optimize this line.
Could anybody tell me how to call replaceAll once with using regular expression instead of calling replaceAll multiple times? Some table or column names can have double quotes, so I want to remove the double quotes without replacing the double quotes which is part of the table or column name.
I'd appreciated it.

"dynamic" String concat in Expression language

I would like to do something like (in Java)
String s = flag? "this" : value + "that";in EL it would be #{flag ? 'this' : value + 'that'} but this leads to an error because it tries to add as numbers and not concat as strings.
how can I do this?
thanks

Simple question on Strings

Is there a cleaner (and/or easier) way of adding a string value into another string? ie:
String myString = "How You?";
int i = myString.indexOf(" ");
String a = myString.substring(0,i); //should equal "How"
String b = myString.substring(i,myString.length()); //should equal " You?"
String c = a + " Are" + c; //should equal "How Are You?"

Sounds good to me.
Although in this particular example you could have done either:String c = myString.replaceAll(" ", " Are "); // (1.4+)-or-String c = myString.replace(" ", " Are "); // (1.5+)Also there are the StringBuffer or StringBuilder (1.5+) classes which have an insert(int,String) method.

Re: comparing String with a NodeValue in XML

Hello Syed,
you have to do the comparison it with ".equals()" instead of "==", thus try:
if (search.equals(node.getFirstChild().getNodeValue()){
Reinhard

Thanks Reinhard
works just fine. The only thing left is
if (node.getFirstChild().getNodeValue() != search)
System.out.println(" Search Result NOT Found ");
cus its still displaying the message "NOT Found"

A simple question about deployment with SDM

I've deployted an EAR onto thte server with SDM. Now want to redeploy it. Should I undeploy the old one first, or can I simply depoy it again?

Hi Thomas
You can redeploy the Ear file through SDM by selecting the option:
"update deployed SCAs/SDAs that have the same or lower component versions than the selected SCAs/SDAs" after adding Ear file to deploy in deployment tab under "Deployment Configuration"
Cheers !!!

Nokia X6 simple question to start with

Hi,
just bought a X6 and struggling like many. I think I know how to use the GPS (will try this weekend) but I am used to the GPS pointing towards the actual position, not the north. A car GPS or a Tomtom point in the direction you're going or pointing the device, but how can I change that on my X6 ?
thanks for your patience
Pierre from Belgium

I have an X6 16GB and always get a satellite lock in under two minutes. Even the first time I used the map function I got a lock in under two minutes. Also when I type in a destination the map points in the direction I am travelling and the compass (lower left at bottom of screen) points north, which is the same as my TomTom. Obviously you guys are doing something wrong. Have you read the online user manual. I always make a habit of reading tne user manual of any product I am thinking of buying before I make a purchase. I think it is called (1) research and (2) Common sense. So I suggest you read the online manual and also the FAQ's. I must admit the maps function is not as intuitive as the TomTom but once you have set a destination and are using it for navigation to get to your destination it works the same as the TomTom. I know this because I have them both in their cradles along side of each other in my car.

I'm just trying to slow down a picture thats moving around the screen, but the design is kinda complex. I guess I just need to think about it.There's a technique in programming about making something time-based as opposed to frame based. Usually we start off making something frame base and end up getting fustrated when drops or speed ups in the fps cause drastic effects in the smoothness of the game/animation.
To combat this we make a program time based by storing a global variable, say "frameSpeed". We then program as though it were a constant 30 fps (or any other arbitrary number). The "frameSpeed" would then be +30 / actual fps+ . So if we were moving at 60 fps then "frameSpeed" would be .5.
This global variable is then used in all the calculations. So where as previously we may have had
x += xSpeedwe now have
x += xSpeed * frameSpeedWhen you introduce more complex concepts like acceleration the math is a little harder. But if you can make your program time based, then it will be smooth across many frame rates. You could even forcefully manipulate "frameSpeed" to cause your whole program to speed up or slow down into a bullet-time effect.

Compare Strings using JSTL

How can I compare strings with JSTL? One string is a stored date and the other is a generated date. My goal is to set the correct date in a dropdown menu with date values (yyyy-MM-dd) by comparing the current date with the stored.
Code
<%
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(timezone, locale);
Format fm = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
String date2 = (String) fm.format(cal.getTime()); %>
<c:set var="date1" value="${mb.date}" /> // from database lookup (MySQL Date)
<c:out value="${date1}"/>=<%=date2%>:<c:out value="${date1 == '<%=date2%>' }" />The result is:
2004-08-03 = 2004-08-03 : false

well, about this:
<%
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(timezone, locale);
Format fm = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
String date2 = (String) fm.format(cal.getTime());
pageContext.setAttribute("date2",date2);
%>
<c:set var="date1" value="${mb.date}" /> // from database lookup (MySQL Date)
<c:out value="${date1}"/> .equals <%=date2%>:<c:out value="${date1eq date2}" />I try to use the EL 'eq' like you would use '.equals()' in regular java, and EL '==' like regular java '==' And since we are comparing Strings here, which are objects, we would use .equals rather than ==, since == compares refernce and .equals compares value...

Question about expression language

Hello,
I have a question about expression language - is it possible to access one variable using abother EL as variable name? For example?
${applicationScope[${sessionScope.project.name}]}Or is there any other way of achieving that?
Thanks a lot for your help
Cheers,
Maciej
Edited by: swider on Oct 29, 2008 2:12 AM

I ran some other tests and I found out that following expression does not return value:
${applicationScope[sessionScope.project.aclId]}but this one is working
${applicationScope[sessionScope.aclId]}It is very strange. Project class ia simple JavaBean, has two members (Long and String).
Any ideas what can be wrong with that?
Cheers

I PXI 1010 with Digital Osci, RIO cards. Any simple projects to illustrate PXI with Signal Express and/or using Digital Osc.?

I have PXI 1010 with card for Digital Osc. Also have ELVIS. Any suggestions on oa simple project to illustrate applications of PXI - using Dig OSc and/or ELVIS. Any suggestions to illustrate PXI with Signal Express exercises. This is for undergraduates in EE Engg.

Hi, yes, that does help, thank you for your reply. Signal express does make it easy to work with multiple devices, as I am, though something seems to be amiss with the timing between cards. For example, setting Signal Express to do nothing more than log data at 100 pts/sec on all channels on all three cards (PCI-6289), and using the software trigger in Signal Express to start the digitization process, and the stop button, to stop data logging, certainly seems to be a very convenient solution. However, the longer I record (an hour seems to be enough time), the more likely that a signal recorded on all three cards, will not synch, point to point, (comparing signals recorded on channel 0 on all three cards, which I believe should be captured simultaneously through out the recording process, for example) and data recording does not stop simultaneously on all three cards. I can handle the data logging not stopping simultaneously, but my source signal apparently not being recorded synchronously is a whole other problem, and the impetus for my question. Thanks for the tip about NI-SCOPE, I was going to start working with that on a different project.
I am using the most recent versions of SignalExpress, NIDAQmx drivers, etc., on a PC running 64-bit windows 7.
regards,
Brian

SSIS Expression to Server Name from a Connection String

Hi,
I have an SSIS variable which contains a connection string as follows; -
User::strDYNconnection {Data Source=myServer;Initial Catalog=myDatabase;Provider=SQLNCLI10.1;Integrated Security=XXXX} String
I need to get the server name from the above variable using an SSIS expression so I can pass the server name to another function.
Thanks in advance,
Kieran.
Kieran Patrick Wood http://www.innovativebusinessintelligence.com http://uk.linkedin.com/in/kieranpatrickwood http://kieranwood.wordpress.com/

Hi Kieran,
This works fine when the Data source comes first in the connection string (which it usualy does). but when it doesn't,
e.g.
Initial Catalog=myDatabase;Data Source=myServer;Provider=SQLNCLI10.1;Integrated Security=XXXX}
you will get 'myDatabase' as an answer
I would add 'Data source =' in the find string (and adjust for length of this search string to add sufficient offset)
e.g.
SUBSTRING(RIGHT(@[User::strDYNconnection],LEN(@[User::strDYNconnection]) - 11 - FINDSTRING(@[User::strDYNconnection],"Data Source=",1)),1,FINDSTRING((RIGHT(@[User::strDYNconnection],LEN(@[User::strDYNconnection]) - 11 - FINDSTRING(@[User::strDYNconnection],"Data
Source=",1))),";",1) - 1)
Even this is not foolproof, when the Data source is the last element in the string and there is no ending ;
e.g.
Initial Catalog=myDatabase;Provider=SQLNCLI10.1;Integrated Security=XXXX;Data Source=myServer}
the formula needs to be extended further with a ( ? : ) operator around the last operator to see if the last ";" was found or not.
