Help Regarding Loop Variables inside a Sequence Job

[ArunsundarIndira]

Hi All,

I have a issue in getting all the values of the a single parameter ( which is a file name that is dynamically generated while looping) used inside a loop at the end of the loop in a variable.

For e.g.

Loop 1 : var1 = 'file1.sql'
Loop 2 : var1 = 'abc.sql'
Loop 3 : var1 = 'xyz.sql'

I want a variable to hold all the values of variable var1 out of the loop.

Thanks in Advance,
Arun.

A Variable holding "file1.sql,abc.sql,xyz.sql" outside the loop, then use a comma for the loop separator.

oops, I see you want it the other way around. Put a user variable activity and generate "BigString" as "BigString:',':$Loop.Loopvariable"

Hi Arun,

If you are getting the values of a single parameter from a file then using list loop can help you.

1. Cat the file with execute command|xargs|tr -d '\n'
Eg- Output will be file1.sql abc.sql xyz.sql
2.Pass the command output to the loop using list loop.
3.Get the execute command output in a user variable activity once the loop is finished through a activity variable.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Arndw: Will you not need 2 user variables ?

[ArndW]

No two user variables are needed. Just one outside the loop to hold the string containing the loop elements, then the loop counter itself will hold each value for each iteration.
