onFetch local javascript variable [message #902795]

I have a datasource that uses javascript to update an array of records processed which is used as an input filter on another datasource.

I want to further control the data put into the array, by using some additional javascript..

but I don't understand how to get local variables in the onFetch script.

var varname = "";
and
varname ="";

both produce errors.

what I need to do is check the length of the data returned on one of the fetched rows.

var xyz= row[data_element];
if xyz.length()>0
array.push(xyz);

but line one fails with error

error evaluating script "var xyz=";

Do you have the column name in quotes? Log out your fetch like:

importPackage( Packages.java.io );
out = new PrintWriter( new FileWriter( "c:/test/ds.txt", true ) );
out.println( "row value "+ row["ORDERNUMBER"]);
out.close();
