RE: [HAPI-devel] message segment counts

[Alex H. <al...@9p...>]

I have been doing something like this to get the count of a repetitive
segment..

        int count = msg.currentReps("DG1");

I'd like to know too however if this is the best way to do this.

Subject: [HAPI-devel] message segment counts

I'm pretty new to hapi, and I'm having trouble figuring out this
construct.. I have an object of type
RDE_O11_ORCRXONTERXRRXCNTERXERXRRXCOBXNTECTI... crazy.

Anyways, I can make calls like getRXE() and getORC(), but I don't know
how to deal with multiplicity. There are two RXC calls. One that takes
an int index, and one that does not. The one that takes an index seems
like what I want, but what's my mechanism for iterating them? Is there
a count/length/size somewhere, or am I expected to call the method
starting at index = 0 until I get a null or exception?

thanks,
-Phill
