Unable to get simple expression to works

Hi,
I just cannot make this simple formula works : (mode=3?mode=0:mode=mode+1)
mode is a dynamic local variable. I tried with == but it return this error error calculating boolean(false) = integer(0) >> (boolean)null
it was working in ST but seems not after HE migration... Does anyone see something wrong?

Thanks!

It would have to be == to do a comparison.

If you are wanting to assign 0 to mode if mode is 3, otherwise increment it, this is what you want:

mode = mode == 3 ? 0 : mode + 1

yes, but not working! the value always have been incremented so its now 11, but when I enter your formula, it gives 111 so it looks like it just append 1 at the end... pretty strange!
Thanks!

Sounds like your mode is a String then?

its dynamic, I ll look at it again but I also tried with quotes and not working... for now this works to increment but not the if == part ... (mode==3?0:sum(mode,1))

What does this mean. If it's not a number, you can't do math to it.

How about this:

mode = mode.toInteger() == 3 ? 0 : mode.toInteger() + 1

To tell what is going on, add some log.debug, such as

log.debug "mode=$mode, test=${mode.toInteger() == 3}"

I mean that the value got increased by the formula.. it’s now 11 because didn’t reset to 0. The first part of the formula does not work!

8

Without logging it's not possible for anyone else to know what's going on.

I ll try to supply log and your formula! I had tried with number(3) but not working…

I ll come back later
Thanks
