Changing the value of a variable set in tGlobalVar
Hi guys,
If I have a variable set using tGlobalVar example name and it's value is an empty string. How can I modify it using tJava?
and if I ever declare a variable in tJava is it possible that can I call that variable in other components? If yes how?
Hi
In tJava, you can set a value to the global variable which you have defined on tGlobalVar, for example:
tSetGlobalVar
|
onsuojobok
|
tJava
on tSetGlobalVar, add a new variable let's call it "myKey" and set its value as "oldValue"
on tJava, set a new value to global variable 'myKey" like this:
globalMap.put("mykey", "newValue")
You can use this variable in other component later as long as you declare a global variable before using it, call the variables in other component later like:
(String)globalMap.get("myKey") //the data type of value is String
(Integer)globalMap.get("myKey") //the data type of value is Integer/int

Hi Shong,
Just want to have a clarification.
For example I've declared a variable in tJava:
int record = 0;
can i call this variable in other component?
Hi
No, only a global variable can be accessed on other component. As you done, define a global variable using tSetglobalVar component or use this expression:
globalMap.put("key","value")

Hi shong,
I have some problem here.
I declare a variable using a tSetGlobalVar : Key: PrevComb | Value:"novalue"
and here is my job outline
tSetGlobalVar
|
(Main)
|
tFlowToIterate
|
(Iterate)
|
tJava
In my tJava , I have a condition ((String)globalMap.get("CurrentComb")) != ((String)globalMap.get("PrevComb")) and if it's true it will be performing this:
globalMap.put("PrevComb" , ((String)globalMap.get("CurrentComb")))
this means the CurrentComb value will be stored in PrevComb, am i right?
with this try to simulate in the next run it will be false because they have the same value, right?
But in my case on the next the result is true, it seems that PrevComb value is still "novalue".
Help me out thanks!

To determine whether one string is equals to another one, you should the use the method String.equals("anotherString"), so the expression should be:
((String)globalMap.get("CurrentComb")).equals(((String)globalMap.get("PrevComb")))
BTW, for the numeric type, such as Integer/int, you can use ==.

;(, before you post this message, I think you shall to change the method equlas() as I said and test the job again.
Omg! Sorry shong!! Wasnt able to reply it clearly because it's almost end of office hours.
Thanks for the .equals() shong!
one more question:
in this situation:
tGlobalSetVar:
key | value
count | 0
tGlobalSetVar
|
Main
|
tFlowToIterate
|
iterate
|
tJava
in tJava
globalMap.put("count" , ((Integer))globalMap.get("count") + 1 );
