Boolean Arrays

Shonatina · 2012-06-21

hi,

I have attached the requirement, how can I code it in such a way that I can select different cominations, the weeks apart and occurances from it and still get the right end date.
Am trying to use arrays with boolean, but i dont know how to pass combinations of values without hard coding the combinations like

if (tuesday and monday and not wed and not thur and not fri and not sat and not sun) = true then
{body condition...}
if (tuesday and monday and not wed and thur and not fri and not sat and not sun) = true then
{body condition...}

i dont want to hard code all the possible combinations. Kindly suggest how to execute with array.

thank you in advance.

Create a new table with a code primary key and boolean fields for the days of the week and store the data there. Create a drill down from your table to this one.

hi David, Thanks for replying.

As of now i thought of doing like this, im using the Date virtual table and finding the day of the week and assigning the values of each day to a array i created with dimension 7.

so array[1] = monday n so on. with that i create a loop to calculate the end dates.

How does your method works. how will i know which booleans are selected and what are they?

Thanks again.

Just create the setup manually.

the table has 8 fields

Code (code10)
Mon (boolean)
Tue (boolean)
Wed (boolean)
Thur (boolean)
Fri (boolean)
Sat (boolean)
Sun (boolean)

You can check the CalcNextRunTime function in Job Queue Dispacher codeunit.
