Not able to perform Arithmatic Operation in Groovy script

Hi,

Installed 32 bit SoapUI Pro

In Groovy script:

a= props.getPropertyValue("a")
b = props.getPropertyValue("b")
c=a+b
log.info(a)
log.info(b)
log.info(c)

Result is:
Thu Feb 03 18:10:06 IST 2011:INFO:58961.0
Thu Feb 03 18:10:06 IST 2011:INFO:58951.0
Thu Feb 03 18:10:06 IST 2011:INFO:58961.058951.0

But I want "c" Result as 58961.0+58951.058951.0=117912

It is taking a and b values as strings, how can i convert these values into "Integers"?

Please help me

    def a = context.expand( '${Properties#a}' )
    def b = context.expand( '${Properties#b}' )
    def c = a + b

    log.info ( a + " + " + b + " = " + c )

    That worked for me

    Hi Rob,

    I tried as u said

    I have 2 properties balance=58961.0 and ExpBalance=58951.0

    In Groovy:

    def a = context.expand( '${Properties#balance}' )
    def b = context.expand( '${Properties#ExpBalance}' )
    def c = a + b
    log.info ( a + " + " + b + " = " + c )

    Result coming as :

    Fri Feb 04 11:39:15 IST 2011:INFO:58961.0 + 58951.0 = 58961.058951.0

    I am not getting the total amount

    Some QA guy I am!
    The Groovy in SoapUI seems watered down - the parameter "+" doesn't read as "plus" but rather as a string and puts them together - and it's even taking the groovy method a.plus(b) the same way.
    I got the same thing you did - I just didn't look at it... sorry about that.

    I'll get back to you if I figure it out.

    I emailed support - I tried many java codes / groovy codes - - some how the properties file is the culprit the way it reads numerical values.

    Hi!

    properties are stored as strings, so you'll need to convert them back to int's before adding them up, for example

    def c = Integer.parseInt( a ) + Integer.parseInt( b )

    regards!

    In this particular case

    Double.parseDouble( "58961.0" )

    will do the trick (since you're dealing with floating point numbers).

    Double.parseDouble( "58961.0" )


    Hope it helps!
