The move API allows you to move values from one variable to another, left adjusted, without any type checking. It has the same functionality as pjs.move(), but with the 'left-adjusted' paremeter always true.
Parameters
There are five parameters, 1 optional.
- Source name - where you are taking data from.
- Target name - where you will move data into.
- Date/Time/Timestamp format - usually used if moving time/date around, can be blank otherwise. (optional / blank)
- Pad - if true, this will clear out the Target variable first. (optional)
Examples
pjs.define("Name", { type: 'char', length: 3, initValue: 'MR.' });
pjs.define("First", { type: 'char', length: 6, initValue: ' SMITH' });
pjs.define("Result", { type: 'char', length: 9 });
pjs.moveLeft(Name + First, Result);
pjs.define("source1", { type: 'char', length: 5, initValue: 'ABCDE' });
pjs.define("target1", { type: 'char', length: 10, initValue: 'abcdefghij' });
pjs.moveLeft(source1, target1);
//target1 = ABCDEfghij
pjs.define("source1", { type: 'decimal', length: 5, decimals: 0, initValue: 12345 });
pjs.define("target1", { type: 'char', length: 10, initValue: 'abcdefghij' });
pjs.moveLeft(source1, target1);
//target1 = 12345fghij
