Using Wildcards in Rules

[Keyser520]

If I want to use a wildcard in a rule, such as :

If PartName==*bolt* Then

How would I do that?

Does it use regular expressions?

The wildcard * will not work as it is a valid string character. You can create a reaction to do what you ask.

You need to create a String Parameter String.1 and a Boolean parameter Boolean.1
Create a reaction to fire on ValueChange of String.1

let Name (string)
let Name_len (integer)
let Item (string)
let Result (string)
let Item_len (integer)
let len_diff (integer)
let i (integer)

/* Output */
Boolean.1 = false

/* Assignment */

Name = String.1
Name_len = Name->Length()
Item = "bolt"
Item_len = Item->Length()
len_diff = Name_len - Item_len + 1
i = 0

if Name_len >= Item_len
{
for i while i < len_diff
{
Result = Name->Extract(i,Item_len)
if Result == Item
Boolean.1 = true
i = i + 1
}

}
