Can I use strcat() in .cdsenv file?

akumar2886 over 10 years ago

If I use the following in the .cdsenv file, the tool throws an error that only string is allowed for the value -

adexl.gui defaultCorners string strcat( getShellEnvVar("TCHWORKSPACEROOT") "/env/defaultADEXLcorners.sdb")

What is the alternative?

It works with envSetVal() in .cdsinit but I want to set this through .cdsenv.

Thanks!

You cannot use strcat() (i.e. SKILL) in a file that is not SKILL syntax.

The workaround is to use envSetVal() in the .cdsinit. That's it, sorry. You can't use a value of "$TCHWORKSPACEROOT/env/defaultADEXLcorners.sdb" either because ADE XL doesn't expect there to be embedded UNIX environment variables in the value of this cdsenv.

Regards,

Andrew.
