Textfield expression. Conditional expression.

[grotero]

Hi!

 

I want to use conditional expression in a textfield expression.

Can I use something like this in a textfield expression?

 

if $F{Field}="k" then "g"

else $F{Field}

 

 

Thanks you in advance.

$F{field}.equals("k") ? "g" : $F{field}

what if I don't want else then ?

 

I am getting an error if I have it  ($F{TR}!=43 ?$F{Product}) What should be the extact syntax

[walmillard]

This is standard Java "In Line" IF THEN ELSE Statement

The syntax is

IF Condition ? Eval to TRUE : Eval to FALSE

The key parts are the "?" and the ":" Question Mark after the Boolean condition. Colon between the TRUE/FALSE results.

You can also nest these statements together eg

IF Condition1 ? Result 1 TRUE : IF Condition 2 ? Result 2 TRUE : Result 3 FALSE

In anser to your Question you need ELSE! add : and a False result.

$F{TR}!=43?$F{Product}:F${TR}

You may need to structure your Logic to account for BOTH true and false results.

Luck!

I guess you can write something like below in "Text Field Expression"

 

$F{field}.equals("k")? "g" : $F{field}
