== Description ==
A "for" loop performs a set of commands for each iteration of the loop.

== Usage ==
for (''starting number'';''while'';''increment'')

You do not have to specify all (or any) of the three values within the, although not doing so may result in an infinite loop. You must have code within the loop itself to exit if you choose to exclude these values. Also, if you do not specify a value you still must use the semi-colon(;) as a separator.

== Examples ==
*For loop that increments a variable by 1 on each pass
int i,count;
for (i=0,count=0;i<=4;i++) {
count++;
}

This will increment the count var to 5.

* For loop which logs all the indexes of the msg array which the send_wait function returns
int i;
send_wait(0, top_object(), "call_attr", "cnt", "get_groups_by_persid", "cnt:776B094702EABB4B87F04A139E72D44B");
for (i=0;i<msg_length();i++) {
logf (SIGNIFICANT, "Msg index #%s: %s", i,msg[i]);
}

* For loop which does not specify all three values
int i;
i=5;
for (i;;) {
if (i>-1) {--i; } else {return;}
}

This will exit i reaches a value of -1

== Description ==
A spel function which, although much diffrent in syntax, works similar to regex (Regular Expression) string matches found in most other programming languages.

== Usage ==
sindex(''"string"'',''"match"'');

Unknown if any wildcards are supported

== Results ==
Sindex will return a -1 is no match is found or a 0 if a match is made.

== Examples ==
* If statement using sindex (matching a string against a string)
if (sindex("test string", "test")==0) {return;}

* Pushing the results of sindex into a variable (matching a string in another variable)
int results;
results=sindex(group.id, "776B094702EABB4B87F04A139E72D44B");
if (results==-1) {
set_return_data("No Match");
} else {
set_return_data("Match!");
}

Error Loading Migrated r11 Extract to a New r11 Install

2008-02-08T21:00:49Z

Alex (aka Fancy Pants):

Running a [[pdm_load]] of data coming from a migrated 6.x->r11.x system could pose problems. In particular, a problem will occur if the extracted data was obtained via the '''[[pdm_extract]] All''' command

In a migrated installation, the [[Computer_Extension]] and [[Software_Extension]] tables exist from earlier releases of Service Desk. In r11.x these tables no longer exist and are not included in a fresh installation. While running the [[pdm_load]], the following error will appear:
** EXIT: Invalid table name : Computer_Extension
: Correct table name and rerun from error point.

The easiest solution is to have a DBA do a direct database to database move of data. But if a [[pdm_load]] is your only realistic solution, then here's how you proceed.
# Run your [[pdm_load]] until it fails.
# Download a third party file splitter such as [http://www.acc.umu.se/~max/maxsplitter/index_free.html MaxSplitter].
# Break the text file into manageable pieces
# Search the pieces for '''TABLE [[Computer_Extension]]'''.
# Delete the [[Computer_Extension]] section and everything that has already been loaded.
# User the file splitter to piece the remaining pieces back together.
# Run the [[pdm_load]] on your newly compiled file until it fails again.
# Use your file splitter to break the file into manageable pieces again.
# Search the pieces for '''TABLE [[Software_Extension]]'''.
# Delete the [[Sofware_Extension]] section and everything that has already been loaded.
# User the file splitter to piece the remaining pieces back together.
# Run the [[pdm_load]] on your newly compiled file.

Currently there is no solution provided by CA. But I don't see how having the load stop if a table is missing is acceptable behavior. In my opinion an error log should be created, but the load should continue (as it does when a column is missing)
