Set value for local fields in EB.Systemtables.setRNew() function.

Hello, In TAFC env, we use R.NEW(FT.LOCAL.REF)<1,2> = 'VALUE', in the case of TAFJ using EB.SystemTables.setRNew() function how can I rewrite this? I tried EB.SystemTables.setRNew((FT.Contract.FundsTransfer.LocalRef)<1,2>,'value'). But it doesn't work. Can anyone please help me with the correct syntax?
 

Hi
why you need to rewrite it? TAFC syntax should still work.
 

Hi, thank you for your response. I am aware of it. But I am trying to write a new routine using libraries only, so don't want to use the TAFC format.

Good luck with that.. you'll be using wrapper around wrapper around wrapper to actually do the same... :))

I looked into EB.SystemTables.h to see if there's a separate function to set a local field... Firstly thought it's EB.SystemTables.setLocalRefField but no... it sets a global variable LOCAL.REF.FIELD... Nice practice to have 2 separate functions for each global variable - one to get, another to set. Probably the goal was not to let a novice one to ruin some global variable :))) What about using EB.SystemTables.setToday() ?

OK, let's try to see what EB.SystemTables.setRNew expects... Surely not (FT.Contract.FundsTransfer.LocalRef)<1,2> ... Probably field number; thinking about REFRESH.FIELD - maybe it should include value/subvalue number separated by a dot...

So - try: 

Thank you so much for your effort. Unfortunately, tried the mentioned command EB.SystemTables.setRNew(LOCAL.REF.FIELD : '.2', 'value'), it is still not working. Anyway, appreciation for you time.

Hi
out of curiosity... Probably you can get the whole LOCAL.REF via EB.Systemtables.getRNew(LOCAL.REF.FIELD), amend it (array<1,2> = 'value') and put back ...

Thank you dear, It works perfectly in this way.
