in the below code I would like to change the final IF NOT statement to say either HEADING or SPACE. I have tried to play around with it (I did not write this code) without success. Sorry am not an expert not sure what code it is in! Any ideas? Thanks
if [POS('HEADING',[DF.Items."CODE"])] then MemoLRV.visible:=false;
if [POS('SPACE',[DF.Items."CODE"])] then MemoLRV.visible:=false;
if [POS('HEADING',[DF.Items."CODE"])] then MemonameV.font.Color:=clmaroon;
if not [POS('HEADING',[DF.Items."CODE"])] then MemonameV.font.Color:=clblack;
if not [POS('HEADING',[DF.Items."CODE"])] then MemoLRV.visible:=true;
In FastReport function IF :
IF(Expression, Value1, Value2)
Returns Value1 if expression Expression is True, otherwise returns Value2. Return value can be not only string.

I am trying to get a document from a form here, but my script out is missing. Am i doing anything wrong here. This seems to work when there is more than on argument but it is just one it seems not to be working
try:
documents = {}
if "Select which supporting documentation you would like to accompany your motivation letter" in input_data['checkbox']:
documents['doc1']="https://essentialmedicalguidance.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/brand/Eli+Lilly/Trulicity/VAE_Trulicity+Package+Insert.pdf"
return documents
except:
return {'empty' : True}
The function always has to return (or set) data. In the case where 'Select which...' is not in input_data['checkbox'], then nothing is returned.
Try something like this instead, which will be more consistent (if you add more fields):
result = {}
if 'Select which...' in input_data['checkbox']:
result['doc1'] = 'https://ess...'
return result
This way, your output is still conditional, but something is always returned.
function Main(Inhalt)
print(string.len(Inhalt))
end
Main(Bla)
This is just a example, I run in multiple problems like: "input:3: bad argument #1 to 'len' (string expected, got nil)" (Like here), or anything else with unexpected.
I'm kinda new to this, so please explain it to me from ground up I'm trying to figure out for a pretty long time. I already tried to convert this to a string with tostring(), but yes I'm missing something. Thanks for your help.
In this case Bla either needs to be a string which you can fix by putting quotes around it
function Main(Inhalt)
print(string.len(Inhalt))
end
Main("Bla")
or needs to be a variable that contains a string
Bla="test string"
function Main(Inhalt)
print(string.len(Inhalt))
end
Main(Bla)
Not a lua expert but it seems like you're trying to get the length of the string value Bla. The way you've written it right now does not indicate Bla is of string type. If you change it to the following, this should work.
function Main(Inhalt)
print(string.len(Inhalt))
end
Main("Bla")
Try this:
string1 = "Bla"
Main(string1)
In your code snippet Bla is not defined. Strings are surrounded by "".
I'm developing an app using Grails. I want to get length of array.
I got a wrong value. Here is my code,
def Medias = params.medias
println params.medias // I got [37, 40]
println params.medias.size() // I got 7 but it should be 2
What I did wrong ?
Thanks for help.
What is params.medias (where is it being set)?
If Grials is treating it as a string, then using size() will return the length of the string, rather than an array.
Does:
println params.medias.length
also return 7?
You can check what Grails thinks an object is by using the assert keyword.
If it is indeed a string, you can try the following code to convert it into an array:
def mediasArray = Eval.me(params.medias)
println mediasArray.size()
The downside of this is that Eval presents the possibility of unwanted code execution if the params.medias is provided by an end user, or can be maliciously modified outside of your compiled code.
A good snippet on the "evil (or lack thereof) of eval" is here if you're interested (not mine):
https://javascriptweblog.wordpress.com/2010/04/19/how-evil-is-eval/
I think 7 is result of length of the string : "[37,40]"
Seems your media variable is an array not a collection
Try : params.medias.length
Thanks to everyone. I've found my mistake
First of all, I sent an array from client and my params.medias returned null,so I converted it to string but it is a wrong way.
Finally, I sent and array from client as array and in the grails, I got a params by
params."medias[]"
List medias = params.list('medias')

So I have this crazy problem with comparing 2 strings in ActionScript 2.0
I have a global variable which holds some text (usually it is "statistic") from xml feed
_root.var_name = fields.firstChild.attributes.value;
when I trace() it it gives me the expected message
trace(_root.var_name); // echoes "statistik"
and when I try to use it in conditional statement the rest of code is not being executed because comparing :
if(_root.overskrift == "statistik"){
//do stuff
}
returns false!
I tried also with:
if(_root.overskrift.equals("statistik"))
but with the same result.
Any input will be appreciated.
Years later but on a legacy project I had the same problem and the solution was in a comment to this unanswered question. So let's make it an anwer:
Where var a:String="some harmless but in my case long string" and var b:String="some harmless but in my case long string" but (a==b) -> false the following works just fine: (a.indexOf(b)>=0) -> true. If the String were not found indexOf would give -1. Why the actual string comparison fails I coudn't figure out either. AS2 is ancient and almost obsolete...
I'm trying to get a handle on how OOP is done in Lua, and I thought I had a simple way to do it but it isn't working and I'm just not seeing the reason. Here's what I'm trying:
Person = { };
function Person:newPerson(inName)
print(inName);
p = { };
p.myName = inName;
function p:sayHello()
print ("Hello, my name is " .. self.myName);
end
return p;
end
Frank = Person.newPerson("Frank");
Frank:sayHello();
FYI, I'm working with the Corona SDK, although I am assuming that doesn't make a difference (except that's where print() comes from I believe). In any case, the part that's killing me is that inName is nil as reported by print(inName)... therefore, myName is obviously set to nil so calls to sayHello() fail (although they work fine if I hardcode a value for myName, which leads me to think the basic structure I'm trying is sound, but I've got to be missing something simple). It looks, as far as I can tell, like the value of inName is not being set when newPerson() is called, but I can't for the life of me figure out why; I don't see why it's not just like any other function call.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Remember that this:
function Person:newPerson(inName)
Is equivalent to this:
function Person.newPerson(self, inName)
Therefore, when you do this:
Person.newPerson("Frank");
You are passing one parameter to a function that expects two. You probably don't want newPerson to be created with :.
Try
Frank = Person:newPerson("Frank");
