RE: Batch scripting

[Mike Dunne]

Hi Remi, Depends how you are using it. I have included a snippet from a previous email on this. Let me know if you need more clarification. cheers Mike   There was a bug fixed for 6.21 where get layer formula did not work at all. Now it works, with the following limitation -   The formula is not returned as a text string. Basically this is due internal structure of a formula. It is not reversable ie to set a formula you do   $formula = "i1 * 10"   and then   set layer formula to $formula         ### or something  like this   which sort of implies that you can do a   $text = get layer formula println $text ### expect "i1 * 10" or something   but there are a few hidden steps inside set layer formula which parses the string into an expression which is then able to be integrated into the data structure. Unfortunately there is no simple way to reverse this process. The only possible workaround is to save the formula to out to disk and look at the text in the file. This is pretty clumsy (but doable)...   ---Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of rcorfini Sent: Monday, 14 January 2002 9:32 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Batch scripting Dear list,   I'm using the batch script utilities of Er Mapper 6.21.
