Hi Proview Experts,

I’m trying to set a boolean value in an array from a script with „SetAttribute“, but no success.

The tree looks like shown in the attached picture, and I use the command:

SetAttribute( “heks-ISP01-WCSuedOst2OG.Zeitplan.WeekDays[0].Hours[0]”, 1);

Reading the value with “GetAttribute” works as expected.

I‘m using Proview V5.5.0-1 compiled from source.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
Martin

Hi Martin,

I've tried to reproduce this fault but I'm not able to do that. Do you have write access? Can you write other boolean?

I'm a little confused about the 'Used' boxes for Bezeichnung and Out. Is it a function object? What kind of attribute types have you used (Attribute or Intern).

Hi Claes,

I do not use a runtime script, I'm working in the configurator and try to preset some values from LibreOffice Calc (csv-file). Write permissions should not matter here (?). Farther down in the tree I have an integer array, in which I can set the values without problems:

SetAttribute( “heks-ISP01-WCSuedOst2OG.Zeitplan.SetCmd[0]”, 1); works as expected

For the moment I've used the Backupfile Utility to preset the values. From there I can see, that I'm using the correct name.

From the attached pictures you can see the class definitions and the names in the Backup Utility.

When I run

set attribute /name=heks-ISP01-WCSuedOst2OG-Zeitplan /attribute=WeekDays[0].Hours[0] /value=1

from the wtt command line, I get the message

Parameter type not correct

in the ProviewR console.

set attribute /name=heks-ISP01-WCSuedOst2OG-Zeitplan /attribute=WeekDays[1].Hours[1] /value=1

gives

heks-ISP01-WCSuedOst2OG-Zeitplan.WeekDays[1] = (Y/N/Q/A): Parameter type not correct

Any suggestions of what I did wrong?

Kind regards
Martin

Hi Martin,

I just assumed that it was an xtt script. In the development script, I found that it's using some old piece of code with an oldfashioned handling of arrays that doesn't work for arrays in a class inside another class. This has to be rewritten. Unfortunately 'set attribute' uses the same code so I can't see any way around it.
