Variable reference not being resolved

Post by jn_meter »

This does not work:

Code: Select all

action_processTop_disable=[!DisableMeasure measure_processTop]
action_cpu_usage_lowest=[#action_processTop_disable#]]
But this does:

Code: Select all

action_cpu_usage_lowest=[!DisableMeasure measure_processTop]
That is: in the first snippet, the reference, in action_cpu_usage_lowest, to action_processTop_disable, is not being resolved, even though similar formulations elsewhere in the code do get resolved. Why?

You don't want two sets of [[]] brackets on the bang.

[Variables]
action_processTop_disable=[!DisableMeasure measure_processTop]
action_cpu_usage_lowest=#action_processTop_disable#

or:

[Variables]
action_processTop_disable=!DisableMeasure measure_processTop
action_cpu_usage_lowest=[#action_processTop_disable#]

Ah, of course. Thank you very much.
