Using Namemap argument to pass an array to another rule

[cencinaNB2ET]

Hi,

I know how to pass single variables but how would you pass on an array or an array-list to another rule using the createvaluemap function?

Any ideas would help me.

Thanks in Advance

Just figured it out....

You have to loop the namevalue map process as you would with any unknown array length

i converted the array list to a string array because it seems to work better.

Here is the Code

Rule 1

Dim NamesList As New ArrayList

NamesList.Add("Part_N")

NamesList.Add("Types")

NamesList.Add("Diam")

For k = 0 To NamesList.Count - 1

MessageBox.Show( NamesList(k) , "Works")

Next k

Dim Heading_Names As String() = CType(NamesList.ToArray(GetType(String)), String())

For g = 0 To Heading_Names.Length -1

MessageBox.Show( Heading_Names(g), "")

Next g

For z = 0 To Heading_Names.Length -1

Dim map As Inventor.NameValueMap = ThisApplication.TransientObjects.CreateNameValueMap()

'map.Add("Arg1", "Arg1Value")

map.Add("Arg1", Heading_Names(z))

iLogicVb.RunRule("Rule7", map)

Next z

Rule 2

Arrays = RuleArguments("Arg1") If RuleArguments.Exists("Arg1")ThenMessageBox.Show("All My Arrays = " & Arrays , "Msg Box Test")

End If
