[GiDlist] If (strcmp) statement

GiDList Archive 2013 - 2005

Dear All,

I have written part of my .prb file (lines 10 and 11) as below:

QUESTION: Climate_Pattern_(NPATT):#CB#(Sinusoidal_Climate_Change,Constant_Climate_Change)
VALUE: Sinusoidal_Climate_Change

and I have an if statement in my .bas file as

*If(strcmp(Gendata(10),“Sinusoidal_Climate_Change”)==0)
1 *
*elseif(strcmp(Gendata(10),“Constant_Climate_Change”)==0)
0 *
*endif

But I don’t get a value of 0 or 1 in the results file (whether I choose the first or second option).

Do you have an idea of what I am doing wrong?

Best Regards,
Arash Farzam

I have tested this (with GiD 10.1.6d win x32) and it worked well.

I think that probably the question Climate_Pattern_(NPATT):#CB#(Sinusoidal_Climate_Change,Constant_Climate_Change) is not the 10th question of your PROBLEM DATA block !!

note that questions are numbered from 1 to n, and is not the line number, is the question counter

to debug it you can also print the value of *Gendata(10)

GENDATA(10)=*Gendata(10)
*If(strcmp(Gendata(10),“Sinusoidal_Climate_Change”)==0)
1 *
*elseif(strcmp(Gendata(10),“Constant_Climate_Change”)==0)
0 *
*endif

To avoid index mistakes, and have a more easy to maintain (when adding/removing fields in future problemtype versions)
it is recommended to use the field name instead of the index

Gendata(1)=*GenData(Climate_Pattern_(NPATT))
*If(strcmp(Gendata(Climate_Pattern_(NPATT)),“Sinusoidal_Climate_Change”)==0)
1 *
*elseif(strcmp(Gendata(Climate_Pattern_(NPATT)),“Constant_Climate_Change”)==0)
0 *
*endif

Really the internal full name of the question is
"Climate_Pattern_(NPATT):#CB#(Sinusoidal_Climate_Change,Constant_Climate_Change) "
but to avoid so long and difficult names of this special fields is accepted the abbreviation removing from #CB# to the end

Dear GID team,

When I access my Desktop via Remote Desktop application (in either
Windows or Mac), the GID program running on the remote computer crashes
(message says “runtime error”).

I believe that when accessing via Remote Desktop the graphics mode (at
least the number of colours) is different from the mode I have when
directly visualising my GID program (not remotely). However, all other
programs that I am running on my remote machine manage to change the
mode. Is there anything I can do to avoid the crash of GID?

Many thanks,

Jose

We don’t know what the ‘Remote Desktop’ exactly do. This is a program to
remotelly manage a Windows PC from a Mac, not?

Probably is some graphic problem as you pointed, try to start GiD without
any graphical acceleration
Go to Utilities-Preferences - Graphical, and select ‘Safe visualization
mode’ and press Accept (is is necessary restart GiD to apply it)

Note: off course redraws will be slower with this preference that use OpenGL
by software.

Regards

Enrique Escolano

Hi Enrique,

As far as I have tried, ‘Remote Desktop’ allows you to contact a PC from
a Mac or PC machine.

I have changed the visualisation mode, but I had no success. If you ever
find out the source of the problem, please let me know.

Many thanks,

Jose

I am usually using the ‘Remote Desktop Connection’ standard tool of Windows
to open another Windows machine, and GiD works without any problem,
but I never user ‘Remote Desktop’ of Mac OS X to connect between Mac and
Windows.
