Question File wait and directBind condition

Hi,

I want to link a FileWait to an executeDelivery with a DirectBind with condition on the file name:


The condition in the DirectBind link is :
%b(rhino){":{FILE_NAME}:".substring(24,27) == "DPR"}b(rhino)%

Test 1 : It works when the input file name is containing "DPR" in the good place : the executeDelivery is executed.
Test 2 : BUT it's also working when I set the condition with "TOTO" which is not included in the file name :
%b(rhino){":{FILE_NAME}:".substring(24,27) == "TOTO"}b(rhino)%


It's like my condition lets all the values pass... What am I doing wrong?

Hello,

I don't really understand what is not correct.
In the "TOTO" case, it looks like there is no child session under the main process, which is normal because there was no file with "TOTO" in the name, right ?

Can you provide more details on what you were expecting ?

Note if that helps : substring(24,27) looks like a 4 characters string, not 3.

Hi Thomas,

When I execute the process with the test condition "TOTO", the process goes to the next step :

However, it shouldn't because it does not pass the condition.
%b(rhino){":{FILE_NAME}:".substring(24,27) == "DPR"}b(rhino)%
Input File name : 20190315184517_S1141542_DPR_Exemple Injection DPR.csv

Maybe it's normal or just a graphic issue?

This is normal when using a DirectBind link.
The target action of the DirectBind will be executed between 0 and N times, depending on the source data and on the Execution Condition.
You can check the variable CORE_BIND_ITERATIONS on the target execution, to see how many times it was executed.
Whatever the number of executions, the process will continue after the target action. This is why the target action is considered as "done".

Maybe we can improve the Diagram display to show the number of iterations, or a different color when there were 0 iterations. I'll submit the idea to our r&d team.

I hope this helps ?

Ok no probs.
I just wanted to be sure the rhino code was working well and it is the case

Thanks
