Important function in x++ for AX 2009 and AX 2012


Important function in X++


I would like to share some important function in x++ Like subStr(), strCmp(),strDel() , strFind (),strfmt () , strLen (),strLwr (),strUpr (),strRep(),systemDateGet(),today(),trunc (),boxExample (),conins(), conLen(), conPeek(), conNull() which seems to easy but some time became very tough to recall in between to coding, so don’t worry and keep coding…….

Sub String in X++

// for cut a string from given posititon SubStr("ABCDEFGHIJ",7,-4) returns the text string "DEFG" (the specified sub-string).

static void subStr(Args _args)

}


Find characters in string in X++

static void strFind(Args _args)

      }
    else
      {
        print "Characters are NOT found in string";
      }
        pause;
 }

Strfmt()in X++

static void strfmt(Args _args)
 {
  str s1 ="testing";
  int  s2 = 2;

  str  s;
          ;
   s = strfmt("string =%1,Integer = %2, Real = %3, ", s1,s2,s3);
   print s;
   pause;
 }

Length of string in X++

// It will return no. of characters in given string
static void strLen(Args _args)
{
int i;
 ;
    i = strLen("jitendra");
    print(strFmt("i=%1",i));
    pause;
}

Convert string in lower  case in X++


static void strLwr(Args _args)
{
  str l;
   ;
      l = strLwr("JITENDRA");
      print(strFmt("l=%1",l));
      pause;
 }

Convert string in upper  case in X++

static void strUpr(Args _args)
{
  str u;
   ;
      u= strUpr("jitendra");
      print(strFmt("u=%1",u));
      pause;
 }

Repetition of string in X++


static void strRep(Args _args)
{
  str r;
    ;
  r = strRep("xyz ", 5);
  print(strFmt("r=%1",r));
  pause;
}

Convert date into string in x++

// we can get date according to own format
static void systemDateGet(Args _args)
{
  date d;
  str d1,d2,d3 ;
    ;
        d = systemdateget();
        d1 =  date2str(d,123,2,-1,2,-1,4);
        d2 =  date2str(d,231,2,-1,2,-1,2);
        d3 =  date2str(d,321,2,-1,2,-1,4);
 
    print(strFmt("dates are %1,%2,%3,%4",d,d1,d2,d3));
    pause;
 }


Truncate Real value in X++

// will round off all digit after decimal(.)
static void trunc(Args _args)
{
real t;
;
    t = trunc(4.6789);
    print strfmt("t = %1",  t);
    pause;
}

Creation of Dialog in X++

static void dialogTest(Args _args)
{
Dialog dialog;
DialogGroup dialogGroup;
DialogField dialogField;
;
dialog = new Dialog("Test Dialog");
dialogGroup = dialog.addGroup("Customer Details");
dialogField = dialog.addField(extendedTypeStr(Custaccount),"Account Number");
dialog.run();
}


Create box for prompt in X++


static void boxExample(Args _args)
{

 if(box::yesNo("Are u sure to close this form",dialogbutton::No,"Box Title")==dialogbutton::yes)
{
    print("Closing.......");
    pause;
}
else
{
    print("Not closing......");
    pause;
}

}

Container Operation in X++

// conins to insert into container
// conLen() for the size of the container
// conPeek() to get contents of container item
// conNull() to Assign null value
static void conpeek(Args _args)
{
container c;
int i;
 ;
  c=conNull();
  c =["item1", "item2","jit"];
  c= conIns(c,2,"test");
   for (i = 1 ; i <= conLen(c) ; i++)
   {
      print conPeek(c, i);
 
 }
 pause;
 }

Adding lookup method on Form Reference Group AX 2012

Reference Group Control lookups in AX 201 2 With the addition of reference groups fields the AX forms including the dialog form gives a rich control called the FormReferenceGroupControl.  With this post, I will show you how to add a reference field in the batch dialog form and add a filtered query controlled drop down. I am going to show with a EcoResCategoryId field. The requirement is to filter out categories with Level 3 and present in the batch dialog dropdown.   Class Declaration:  Declare the warehouse and category fields and dialog fields as below. InventLocationId            inventLocationId; EcoResCategoryId            EcoResCategoryId; DialogField                 DialogInventLocationId,DialogEcoResCategoryId; Dialog Method: public  Object ...

Containers

In X++,  container  is one of the primitive types, or value types.  container  is not a class. A  container  contains an ordered sequence of primitive values or other containers. A  container  can be stored in the database.  container  is one of the column types that you can select when you use the Application Object Tree (AOT) to add a column to a table. A  container  slightly resembles an array, or collections such as the  List  or  Stack  classes. However, you can never change the size or content of a  container  after the  container  is created. X++ statements that appear to modify a  container  are internally building a new  container  and copying values as necessary. Even an assignment of a  container  to another  container  variable creates a new copy of the  container . All of this has performance implications. In the X++ functi...
