Using a variable to reference a dynamic variable
|
So I've been messing with this for awhile and I can't get it to work the way I have envisioned.
Basically I want a variable to be used off the result of a different variable. Here is the trigger I have:
| Code: |
Pattern:
- ~[($code:&28)~] - somewhere
Trigger:
#IF (%item( @SpidersTable, @SpidersPos) <> "none") {
#SAY Assigned $code to %item( @SpidersTable, @SpidersPos)
#ALIAS %item( @SpidersTable, @SpidersPos) {fade $code} {FadeScript|FadeAliases}
}
#ADD SpidersPos 1
#IF (@SpidersPos > %numitems( @SpidersTable)) {#T- {FadeScript|Spiders}}
|
Basically I want @SpidersTable to be dynamic. I have another variable called @FadeRank that I want to append onto @SpidersTable when it is used. So it would be like @SpidersTable5 or @SpidersTable-5 if @FadeRank = 5, ect. I hope this makes sense. I tried @{@SpidersTable}FadeRank} and that didn't seem to work how I thought it would.
Any help would be great.
Thanks! |

You're missing an @.
@{@SpidersTable@FadeRank} |

That didn't seem to work either. And after looking at it shouldn't it be something like:
@{LookupTable@FadeRank}
Since the end output I want is @LookupTable5? |

Aha! @{LookupTable@FadeRank} was what I was looking for. I was having issues other places that was causing me problem. You helped point me in the right direction though. Thanks!

If you want to have text AFTER the dynamic part of the variable name, you'll need to use an expression inside the {}s (or just the concat function) to join the two strings together. But what you have will work fine for this example.

This is what I finally ended up with:
| Code: |
@{@{FadeLoc}_FadeTable_@FadeRank}
|
