Counting keys in record var that match a specific prefix.
|
Have a number of keys in a record variable with different prefixes. (OHS_xxx and THS_xxx)
I'm curious how I can countkeys of only the OHS prefixed keys?
| Code: |
| %numkeys(%match(@StatusDB,"OHS~_*")) |

#LOCAL $count
#FORALL %dbkeys(@dbvar) {#IF (%match(%i, "{O|T}HS_")) {$count=($count+1)}} |

Awesome! Thanks Shalimar! That is very very useful!
On the same vein, is there a link to examples of using nested record variables? Been having a tough time locating any simple examples to build off of.
I've been having trouble using the syntax: DB.Key1.NestedKey2 = NestedKey2Value |

I prefer using function calls to the dot syntax, especially if you are filling in the keys via script:
%db(%db(@var, Key1), Key2) |
