Description Kathy Carroll CLA 2011-08-23 09:35:33 EDT 
This EDT code 

    function testCharacterLen()
        data string = "This is some random data";
        size1, size2 int = -33;
        size1 = strLib.characterLen(data);
        Syslib.writeStdout(" size 1 " + size1);
        data += "           ";
        size2 = strlib.characterLen(data);
        Syslib.writeStdout(" size 2 " + size2);
        if (size1 == size2)
            syslib.writestdout(" size1 == size2");
        else
            syslib.writestdout(" size1 != size2 -- blanks are counted");
        end
    end

Gets this validation message:

IWN.VAL.6619.e 11/24 tester - strlib.characterLen cannot be resolved.
Comment 1 Paul Harmon CLA 2011-08-23 10:17:51 EDT 
You need to use the Strlib that is in package eglx.rbd. You can use:

eglx.rbd.StrLib.characterLen(data), or simply add an explicit import:

import eglx.rbd.StrLib;

to the file. 



Alternatively, you could use the new string functions to do the same thing without using StrLib:

data.trim().length()
