This example shows the Java code for a table function that supports both Tbl.TBL_MODE_CONST and the Tbl.TBL_MODE_VARY modes. The Tbl.TBL_MODE_CONST is very simple in that any one AMP will extract the data out of the text string that is passed in.
This example extracts some data out of a 'raw' text field to generate a bunch of rows. The raw data is supposed to be of the form of numbers as follows:
<store number>,<entries>:<customer ID>,<item ID>, ...; repeat;
where:
- <store number> is the store that sold these items to customers
- <entries> is the number of items that were sold
- <customer ID>,<item ID> are the tuples repeated <entries> times ending with a ';' where the whole pattern can repeat.
