Multiple conditional rules?
 

I would like to have multiple conditional rules before building a group of steps. Is that possible? For instance, do this group of steps if macro1 = False and macro2=1.

Any thoughts?

Yep. Use script in the expression field (excuse the J-Script):

[! %Macro1% && "%macro2%" == 1]

and select "is true" from the test list box.

The script always seems to return as false, I have modified the expression multiple ways and it always seems to return false... strange

Post an example of the failing test and typical values of any macros you are using

The expression is !%isRebuild% && %vBuild% == 1


and it checks to see if it is true

Attached is an example.

Thanks for the help!

Did you mean:

[!%isRebuild% && %vBuild% == 1]

The [] are what VBP uses to know that it is script.

There in no attachment to your post.

I get a parse error when I put the brakets in...

Error expanding macros in property condexpr: Code: !False && 1 == 1>


trying the attachment again

The [] are required. You are getting an error because False is not a value that can be inverted with !. %isRebuild% should be set to 0 (false) or a non-zero value (typically -1).

Tip: if you pause your mouse cursor over the expression a tool tip will show the expression with macros expanded.

Mega tip: if you hold down a shift key and pause your mouse cursor over and expression containing script the tool tip will show the result of evaluating the script.

I updated the expression to look like this:

[!%isRebuild% && %vBuild% == 1]

and changed the isRebuild macro to 0 and -1 and still get the following results:

Error expanding macros in property condexpr: Code: !-1 && 1 == 1>

Also, as was mentioned, this code is JScript syntax, requiring that you set JScript as your default script language (Tools | Options | General). The equivalent VBScript would be

[Not %isRebuild% And %vBuild% = 1]

(assuming that those macros contain values that can be interpreted as boolean/numeric, respectively).

It works!
 

That fixed it, I am using VBScript as my default language and used [Not %isRebuild% And %vBuild% = 1] to get the desired results. Thank you for the help!!!!!!

For those interested (I hate when forums don't give you the conculsion), here it the final script....
