I saw this in the Info center under ESQL field reference overview
You can use the asterisk (*) wildcard character in a path element to match any name. You can also use "*" to specify a partial name. For example, Prefix* matches any name that begins with "Prefix".
I have this in the Environment
Environment.aa1111.bb2222 = mydata
Environment.aa1234.bb2234 = mydata1
The Environment is passed to my compute node and 'aa' 'bb' are some prefixes used in other nodes before my compute node
In my compute node I need to output the environment Environment.aa1111.bb2222
set outputRoot.XMLNSC.Mymsg.data = Environment.*1111.*2222 ;
But this is giving me a syntax error. I am using Toolkit 61 CSD5.
Can some one help? |

I think what you want to understand under "prefix" is really namespace.
So your name would look something like:
Environment.Data.prefix1:name1.prefix2:name2 etc...
Have fun

A tree in Enviroment would only have namespace elements in it if it was constructed under a parser that supported namespace elements...
A prefix is something that of course comes *before* something else. So 'Prefix*' matches everything that starts with 'Prefix'.
KIT_INC is trying to match a postfix - '*11111'. Everything that *ends* with '1111'.
I don't know off the top of my head if the * works that way in ESQL.
But certainly an ESQL Select should allow this in some manner. |

| I tried both *1111 or aa* with no luck. |

I don't think the partial name works in spite of what the documentation says. So Environment.*.* is OK but Environment.a*.b* isn't.
Dunno if this is a bug or a documentation error. |

I'm afraid that this syntax ( Environment.*1111.*2222 or Environment.1111*.2222* ) is a documentation error. The documentation will be corrected in the next refresh...
Kind Regards,
