Hi All,

i want java coding for mapping function rule "remove leading zeros" early.

kindly give me response as early as possible.

Just put these 2 stateements in the UDF it will work

<b> //write your code here

String stringWithoutZeros = a.replaceFirst("^0+", "");

return(stringWithoutZeros);</b>

No need to write any thing.

Warm Regards,

there is no need for an elaborate java code

As alex said use arithmetic function 'mul' and multiply the field with 1, it wud remove the leading zeroes

Hi...

Try this UDF also...

public String removezero(String a,Container container)

{

int no,ans rem;

no = integer.parseint(a);

ans = no / 10;

rem = no % 10;

ans = ans + rem;

return (Integer.toString(ans));

}

Regards

function(String arg, Container container)

{

char[] argArr = arg.toCharArray();

int leadingZeroLen =0;

for(int i=0; i<argArr.length; i++)

{

if(char<i> == '0')

{

leadingZeroLen++;

}

else

break;

}

String output = arg.substring(leadingZeroLen,arg.length());

return output;

}

Do this coding only if leading zeroes come in a character string.

If its a numeric string, then do

int argInt = Integer.parseInt(arg);

String output = ""+argInt;

return output;

Hi Mahaboob

Write UDF to parse data .

String dataVal="0230";

int parseVal = Integer.parseInt(dataVal);

System.out.println("parseVal is "+parseVal);

result.addValue(parseVal); or return parseVal;

Have a look at this thread...

Hi peera..

Refer this Thread..

you dont actually need a UDF...

if you are talking about only Numeric data then you can simply use an arithmetic function and multiply by "1"

or you can use format number with ### as your entries
