list<genericValue> check for value, get value

[Robert Gan]

Hey,

I have a list as mentioned in the subject. This is created in the PriceServices.Java file.

My Problem is, that this list is size()=1. So all is written like 1 long string. But this string contains important information about the price rules, where I need f.ex the end-date from etc.

Do you now how I can get these data out of it? Why it is just size=1?

Normally I can use ".contains()" on lists...but with size=1 obviously it does not work.

please help me soon :)

Thanks

Robert

Use EntityUtil.getFirst(List<GenericValue> values) it will return the first
record of the list, internally it do values.get(0).

Thanks for your fast reply. The problem is, that with that method I get the whole string, but I need the entity fields. My string what is printed now looks like:

[GenericEntity:ProductPriceRule][createdStamp,2012-06-20 23:37:56.898(java.sql.Timestamp)][createdTxStamp,2012-06-20 23:37:56.759(java.sql.Timestamp)][description,[10000] Panasonic PT-AX100 Projektor(java.lang.String)][fromDate,2012-06-20 23:37:56.81(java.sql.Timestamp)][isSale,Y(java.lang.String)][lastUpdatedStamp,2012-06-22 06:46:54.734(java.sql.Timestamp)][lastUpdatedTxStamp,2012-06-22 06:46:54.714(java.sql.Timestamp)][productPriceRuleId,10000(java.lang.String)][ruleName,DEAL(java.lang.String)][thruDate,2012-06-30 02:01:02.0(java.sql.Timestamp)]

from this I f.ex. wannt to extract the thruDate etc.

Do you know how to handle?

Thanks :)

Ah I got it,

I do it like this:

getFirst(...).get("thruDate")

great, thank you for your hint!
