Storing result of each for-each operation in a node set

[kalariviswa]

Hi All,

I have a case , where my input event has multiple roles like <roleinfo>Role1#Role2#Role3<roleinfo>

I have used a node spliter followe by a for each command to assign each of the role.

But during each for each i would like to set a event id say for example 1001 for success and 1002 in case of failure in role assignment. That is for example if Role 1 and 3 assignment is success and Role 2 assignment is failure, then i am looking for a output in a local variable like 1001;1002;1001 , where each node will specify the status of each activity.

To achieve this i had written the below code inside my for-each statement for role assignment , but i am getting only the last event id in the local variable
For Each(roleinfo)
{
Assingrole
if success
Set event id =1001
else
set event id =1002
<do-set-local-variable name="var-event-id-node" scope="driver">
<arg-node-set>
<token-join delimiter=";">
<token-local-variable name="var-event-id"/>
</token-join>
</arg-node-set>
</do-set-local-variable>
}

in the above code the output i am getting is 1001 only. Can some one please help me here.

First of all, you seem to be unclear about what a nodeset is and what not.
Token Join produces a String value and takes a Nodeset as input, nevertheless
you give it a String as input and assign it's output to a variable of type
nodeset...

If you want a semi-colon delimited string for output as you described it,
something like this should work:

<do-set-local-variable name="var-event-id-csv-string" scope="driver">
<arg-string>
<token-join delimiter=";">
<token-local-variable name="var-event-id-csv-string"/>
<token-local-variable name="var-event-id"/>
</token-join>
</arg-string>
</do-set-local-variable>

Thanks for the quick help.. For the above case , i got an local variable value set as 1001#;#1002#;#1003

I would like to execute a set of conditions if the expression #;# is not present in the local variable var-event-id-node . I think i am some where missing a regular expression. Can you please guide me..

<if-xpath op="not-true">contains($var-event-id-node,"*#;#*")</if-xpath>

contains() checks for a literal expression, not a regular expression. Therefor
remove the asterisks around the delimiter and it should work just fine. Or use

<if-local-variable mode="regex" name="var-event-id-node"
op="not-equal">.*#;#.*</if-local-variable>

Hi kalariviswa,
contains() will give you right answer (you have delimiter in this
string), but what is your next step?
Your business requirements still not clear for me, but if you need, you
can convert your string 1001#;#1002#;#1003 back to nodeset and use cycle
(For Each) for go thru every string (node) in your nodeset.

Thanks So much ...It worked, i was able to store it in a local variable in ITP and call the same variable and check it in OTP. Thanks.

Glad to hear that, just keep in mind that driver scope variables are available
to both subscriber and publisher thread and are persistent between events. So
make sure you do not accidentally use a value from another object or channel...

Also if this information is only required in the current operation, you
should use Operation Data instead of a driver scoped variable.

This right approach will come with experience: in my oldest drivers I used Driver scoped variables, now I use Operation Property instead. 🙂

True,

If you end up using Driver scoped variables I always initialize them with a null value such as 0 or '' or even "null" so I know it is empty before setting it. You can also set (remove) it after using it to clean it up. The point is to be careful when using them.
