  • 1.  How to add an item with a comma in a collection?

    Posted Wed December 23, 2020 05:02 AM

    Hi

    I have a variable which is a collection (List<T>) of strings.
    For example

    defVar --name var1 --type List --innertype String --value "[APPROVED,YES,APPROVAL,I AGREE,I APPROVE]"

    But I need to add a item that contains a comma like 'YES, I AGREE'

    Any ideas how this is possible? 

    Regards,

    N

    Hi,
    I'm not sure how to create one during the variable declaration, but you can use the command "Add to collection" at the beginning of your script!

    defVar --name var1 --type List --innertype String --value "[APPROVED,YES,APPROVAL,I AGREE,I APPROVE]"
    add --collection "${var1}" --value "Yes, I agree"

    Maybe if WDG have some escape characters, it can be sorted out at the beginning of variable declaration? I tried backslash and then a comma but that didn't work.

    Hi  @nordine vandezande

    You need to place the value into a text variable before using the "add" command.
