How do I create an event procedure which conditionally changes the value of a specific variable within an event

[lilah]

Hi everyone,

 

I was hoping someone could help me out with an event procedure which I haven't encountered before, mostly due to it being conditional and probably using the If function.

 

I have event 0xfff00001 which creates an event 0xfff00002. Event 0xfff00002 must check if variable 40 equals "N/A" (both are strings), and if so then assigns variable 50 to variable 40. This is to ensure that if variable 40 is N/A that it will be populated by a different variable.

 

Pseudo code:

 

If {v 40} equals "N/A"

Then {v 40} = ToString({v 50})

Else Nothing

 

Any ideas?

maybe this example will help you

 

0xfff00001 E 20 R Aprisma.EventCondition, \

      "regexp( {v 40}, {S \"N/A\"} )", "0xfff00002 1:1, 2:2, 3:3, 4:4, 30-39:30-39, 50:40, 60:60",\

      "default", "0xfff00002 -:-"

 

 

 

(try "N\/A" if the condition doesn't match)

 

Regards,
Olaf

Hi Olaf,

 

Thanks for taking the time to write the code. Your code copies a single variable to {v 40} but not the rest of the variables from 0xfff00001, right? I'm looking to take an event with several variables and change a single one. If I'm mistaken then I'll be happy to try it out in the lab.

jsut modified the event rule

I'll give it a try   Is there a difference between CA.EventCondition  and Aprisma.EventCondition? I'm using 9.4.2.1
