SID-02198: SpreadSheetPlugin LISTMAP missing

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	6.0.2	Perl version:	5.10.1
Category:	CategoryPlugins	Server OS:	RHEL 6.7	Last update:	9 years ago

We have a search that utilizes the LISTMAP option from the SpreadSheetPlugin. I see that from version 5 to version 6, LISTMAP is now not a valid option.

I have searched and cannot find any info on how to replace the use of LISTMAP now that it is gone.

Can someone give somone guidance?

This is my code:

%CALC{"$LISTJOIN( , $LISTMAP(%$NOP()INCLUDE{\"HostAbstractor\" system=\"$item\" asset=\"$CHAR(37)FORMFIELD{\"PrimaryAsset\" topic=\"$item\"}$CHAR(37)\" raw=\"on\" }$NOP()%, $GET(AllSystems)))"}%

I have a search that does populate the "AllSystems" properly.

Discussion and Answer

$LISTMAP() has been renamed to $LISTEACH(). The $LISTMAP() function remains available as an undocumented function; compatibility is key, so it is not scheduled for removal.

Thanks Peter.

I looked and saw the disappearance of LISTMAP and could not find anything documenting that LISTEACH was its replacement and that LISTMAP was still usable.

Guess it is back to the debugging board.

Search worked in 4.1.2 but in 6.0.2 when running, it is throwing an error of trying to use the topmenubar repeatedly. Now thinking a maybe an update in the skins is causing an issue.

I updated the SpreadSheetPlugin to document the undocumented LISTMAP as a deprecated syntax.
