Question - Unparsable in Calculation: 'O' (1 Viewer)

[Soandso2]

I tried this, but the macro breaks down when trying:

Sub Bind_Bam(string Command, string onoff)
/if (${Defined[Command]}) {
/declare valBool bool local
/if (${onoff} == on) {
/varset valBool true
} else {
/varset valBool false
/varset onoff off
}
/varset ${Command} ${valBool}
/echo ${Command} is \agon\ax.
}
/return

I get Unparsable in Calculation: 'O'
And something about non-numeric in "/if (on == on)". I do not see what is wrong. /if (on == on) is not wrong, as far as I can see?

On is not a thing that can be parsed.

it needs to be like "true == true" or "123 == 123"

You can use string tlo if you needed to compare strings, but id suggest using booleans rather than strings for on and off

/if (${onoff.Equal[on]}) {

So a lot of people I've noticed don't really understand conditions and how to compare something to something else. In order to understand conditions with comparisons we should first start with the basics of how MQ2 Interprets information. This is...

Oh. Too many years of PHP coding makes IF ("123 == 123") seem very unusual, but alright, then I understand. Thanks.

That looks fancy and makes more sense (to me) than "on == on" as posted above. I will try this first.

Edit: Yeah that worked better

i keep seeing macroscript questions and that makes me very sad.

Be sure to check out the guide I posted, it explains the options you have available and the differences between numerical values and strings.
