Trace Variable value +1 ?

micheledenardi — Fri, 27 Apr 2018 14:36:17 GMT

Hi Guys,

i would like to trace the value of a variable +1 without creating a new one with +1 added....

I've already tried these approach:

set x=4;

Trace $(x)+1; ----> Result: "4+1"

Trace $(x+1); -----> Result: "empty"

I would like to see the result "5" in my script loading windows....

How to achieve this ?

May be using another variable

SET x = 4;

LET y = $(x) + 1;

TRACE $(y);

I guess not, it seems that TRACE doesn't really allow you to perform a calculations... all the calculations have to be perform ahead of time.... the only thing it can do is to evaluate the value of a already created calculation using dollar sign expansion.
