How to search for a string

[Former Member]

Hi All,

My requirement is to search string Like "List Price",if the input field is having this string at any place i need to transfer input value to target.

Could any one help me on this writing a UDF for this.

Input : Final List Price Vendor

check for :List Price

then pass the other values to Target.

Thanks,

Hi,

guess you can do it with standard functions:

Use the replaceString function to replace "List Price" with "" for your inputValue.

Then compare the result with the original inputValue (without replaceString).

If length is not equal (if without else)

then targetValue = replaced inputValue

public void search(String[] a,ResultList result,Container container){

String check = "List Price";

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

{

if(a<i>.indexOf(check) >= 0)

result.addValue(a<i>);

else

result.addValue(" ");

}

}

Hi,

Check with this UDF

public String Search(String a,String b,Container container)
{
String c;
int i;
i = a.indexOf(b);
if(i == -1)
   c = " ";
else
   c = a;
return c;
}

Here a is the input and b is the search string.

0r

if the value of search string doesnt change dynamically then the UDF can be like this

public String Search(String a,Container container)
{
String c;
String b;
b = "List price"
int i;
i = a.indexOf(b);
if(i == -1)
   c = " ";
else
   c = a;
return c;
}

Hi Madhu,

No need of UDF..

Use the Standard Function startsWith text function with the combination of if-else condition.
