Not sure I follow, but it sounds like you want to filter the input variable set and produce a smaller output set. > I do not know if this is a good enough use case to > ask for an enhancement , I had a regex that extracted out multiple values > and found I couldn't use this without additional loop constructs - but it > looks inconsistent that the Regex PostProcessor cant deal with the format it > returns itself. But it can deal with single variables, exactly the same as sample data. And it can take a single input variable and generate a set of new variables from it if required. Seems to me that is perfectly consistent, whereas filtering the variable set (if that's what you want) is a completely different operation. But if you want to request an enhancement to allow the RE PP to deal with sets of variables, please fill in a Bugzilla request with exact details and a use case. > regards > deepak > > > > On Fri, Feb 4, 2011 at 7:04 AM, sebb <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On 3 February 2011 23:20, Deepak Shetty <[email protected]> wrote: >> > Hi >> > When we select the Apply To Jmeter Variable Option along with Regex Post >> > processor and the variable is actually a list of values (a previous post >> >> No, the variable is not a list of values. >> >> The RE PP creates a set of variables each with its own value. >> >> > processor which returned multiple matches) , then what is the expected >> > behavior?
