Replace not working

[rocket976 62]

Getting lots of issues coming in from customers on my last compile with the latest version 4.2.2 

 

Waits not waiting, sets not setting, replaces not replacing..

What gives? These are the easy ones, usually they are nested.. Those aren't working either..

Hey Guys,

 

I'm scratching my head here also. I'm running UbotStudio v5.5.1 and I can't rule out that a simple replace command is not working due to a bug in the UbotStudio or my programming. I have two variables, one (#TempURLs) with a block of text relative URLs and a second variable (#itemTransFullURLs) with a replace command to replace a portion of text (/transaction/) in the relative URLs with text of full path (absolute) URLs (https://www.domain.com/transaction/). The replace command will not do the replace. I've tried quotes, escaping the characters, etc. but it won't perform the replace.

 

Any help on this very simple issue would be greatful.

 

Thanks,

Rich

 

Here is the code:

set(#TempURLs, "/transaction/237721973?
/transaction/237664169?
/transaction/237573269?
/transaction/237573268?
/transaction/237573267?
/transaction/237573266?
/transaction/237573265?
/transaction/237573264?
/transaction/237573263?
/transaction/237539559?
/transaction/237539558?
/transaction/237539557?
/transaction/237539556?
/transaction/237535818?
/transaction/237529132?
/transaction/237529131?
/transaction/237529130?
/transaction/237529129?
/transaction/237414323?
/transaction/237247724?
/transaction/237239665?
/transaction/237091749?
/transaction/237066567?
/transaction/237030483?", "Global")
set(#itemTransFullURLs, $replace("/transaction/", #TempURLs, "https://www.domain.com/transaction/"), "Global")

ok, I figured it out, it was my programming, lol

 

In the replace command, I needed to swap the variable in the Search Text field with the text to be replaced in the Original Text field, resulting in the code looking like this... which works perfectly:

set(#itemTransFullURLs, $replace(#TempURLs, "/transaction/", "https://www.domain.com/transaction/"), "Global")
