−
//takes the passed DataVect and compares it against the fixed string passed, returns TRUE is they are the same.  (Not case sensitive)
 
−
// eg.  DataVectCompare(dataVect, 0,  "something")  returns  TRUE is dataVect.AtAsText(0) ==  "something"

−
dv->SetText( dataVect.AtAsText(index) ); // get the contents of the specified parameter.
 
−
dv->Lowercase(); // and convert to all 'lowercase' for checking.
 
−
 
−
fmx::TextAutoPtr    cs;
 
−
cs->Assign(compare); // take the passed 'Compare' string
 
−
cs->Lowercase(); // and convert to all Lowercase for checking.
 
−
 
−
return ( *dv == *cs );
 
−
 
−
} // DataVectCompare
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
Then, in any script where you want to compare the text passed by the user, you can include...
 
−
 
 
−
if ( DataVectCompare(dataVect,0, "Text") )
 
−
{
 
−
// Do something only if first parameter (index = 0) passed is equal to  'Text'
 
−
}
