How can I use variable to define PATH?

[Jae Joo]

Hi,

I do have a problem to use variable to define PATH.

For example,

set idx 1

set status [datget [grmfetch $ghd {1($idx).PID(0).00581(0).[0]}] VALUE]

it returned 1(0).PID.00581(0).[0].

Does anyone know why?

Hi Jae,

I don’t think you can access a PATH in TCL anywhere in Cloverleaf. You can only use a PATH as a variable in your translation.

If you want to use a variable in a PATH, you can do it like this (in a translation that is):

Code:

=0  –>  $%g1
1(%g1).PID(0).00581(0).[0]  –>  @whatever

This way you can use variable %g1 in your PATH. Always remember to use $%g1 to change the value of %g1.

I will take a stab at this.

Perhaps your problem is you have the path enclosed in curly braces. With that I think your variable is not getting a value substituted for it so the path when grm gets it actually has the variable name and not the numeric value associated with the variable name.

Have you tried quote instead of curly brace?

Thanks Jim

set status [datget [grmfetch $ghd “1($idx).PID(0).00581(0).[0]”] VALUE]
