Hello,

we have tis Script:

var _testString = "Test&Test Test+Test=Test-Test";

_testString = escape(_testString);

and this one:

var _testString = "Test&Test Test+Test=Test-Test";

_testString = _testString.replace("+", "%2B");

the log say something like this:

Test/var/folders/ff/ffKQdrvpHF4CpidNJmasOU+++TY/-Tmp-/FixtureTest14/inFolder26Test/var/folders/ff/ffKQdrvpHF4CpidNJmasOU+++TY/-Tmp-/FixtureTest14/inFolder20Test+TestDTest-Test

Who need the Folder? Has anybody a tip?

Thanks Lohbrandt

Is there anybody from Enfocus, who can answer questions?

I'm a little confused. Your JS snippet doesn't involve a path at all. Did you append _testString variable to another value like job.getPath()? Did you mean to add a directory separator character, eg. '/', between inFolder and _testString?

thank for your post dkelly.

the script is what i post.

there is nothing else.

i dont understand the path in the log message, because there is no job.getPath() command.

Hello lohbrand,

based on the path I would state that you're using the Fixture (debugging) capabilities of SwitchScripter to test your script outside Switch.

Regards,

Robert

Is this script being used in a script expression or a scripted element?

lohbrand · Post by **lohbrand** » Mon Jun 25, 2012 3:43 pm

in a script-element

I guess I don't understand your question because a scripted element would need more code that that. A jobArrived() or timerFired() function at least.

function jobArrived( s : Switch, job : Job )

{

var _testString = "Test&Test Test+Test=Test-Test";

_testString = escape(_testString);

job.log(1,_testString);

}

what happend whit your engine?

Oke, we have a answer.

The commands log and fail will never display the char %.

Thanks.

It's true.

The 's.log' and other text-related functions will treat %[number] as a wildcard parameter. As you can see here, your %2B falls in that category as %2 is treated as the job folder.

You might want to write that text to a binary file to read it.
