FTValList.getValString

Gets the string value that is associated with the specified key.

Syntax

public String 
getValString(String key)

Parameters

key

The name of the key.

Returns

The String value associated with the key. If the associated FTVAL is of type FTVAL.I4, the integer is converted to a string and returned. If the key is not found, or the FTVAL is not a string or an integer, then null is returned.

Example

The following code constructs a tiny list and then calls getValString to retrieve the value associated with the sole key:

String aKey = "DMajor";
String aValue = "Sonata for Two UNIX Boxes";
FTValList MyTinyList = new FTValList(8);
MyTinyList.setValString(aKey, aValue);

// Now retrieve the value associated with DMajor
String RetrievedValue = MyTinyList.getValString(aKey);

After running this code, RetrievedValue should hold:

Sonata for Two UNIX Boxes
