Re: Variable assignment and subrountine branching in MQSI v2.1 ESQL

[Srilatha Sridhar]

Hi Dan:

Did you try putting double quotes instead of single quotes?

SET XTAG_1 = "OCF_SAP.IC.PMX.BOMMAT03";



Thanks.

I have some huge set statements that I would like to shorten using ESQL
defined variables. I have tried several things but have had no success yet.
An example of my set statement is as follows:

SET "OutputRoot"."XML"."IDOC"."E2STZUM"."E2STZUTH"."SEGNAM"=
TRIM
("InputBody"."OCF_SAP.IC.PMX.BOMMAT03"."OFF_SAP.IFC.BOMMAT03.E2STZUM"."OFF_SAP.IFC.BOMMAT03.E2SZUTH"."OFF_SAP.IFF.BOMMAT03.E2SZUTH"."E1SZUTH_E1SZUTH");


I was trying to define OCF_SAP.IC.PMX.BOMMAT03 as XTAG_1 using the set
statment

SET XTAG_1 = 'OCF_SAP.IC.PMX.BOMMAT03';

but the variable does not work when I try to place it in the set statement

SET "OutputRoot"."XML"."IDOC"."E2STZUM"."E2STZUTH"."SEGNAM"=
TRIM
("InputBody".XTAG_1."OFF_SAP.IFC.BOMMAT03.E2STZUM"."OFF_SAP.IFC.BOMMAT03.E2SZUTH"."OFF_SAP.IFF.BOMMAT03.E2SZUTH"."E1SZUTH_E1SZUTH");


Does anyone know how I can do this?

Also, is there a way in ESQL to branch to an internal subroutine?

Any feedback is greatly appreciated,
Dan
