1.my iterator is not printing result which it did earlier

 

jsonRes.Items.EmployeeId.each
{
//groovy iterator
def valueOfEmployee=it.value
log.info myResponsevalues

}

Issue 2 : how do i add the results of database return and the above to an arrays and compare the results. Hit a blank wall.please help

    that was a helpful post thanks Rao. 

    this is what i have so far 

     

     

    /******* Create a Array and add all employeeIds from reponse*******/

    def responseList = []

    jsonRes.Items.EmployeeId.each {

        responseList.add(it.value) //'it' is the name of the default iterator created by the .each()

      //log.info "all the employee ids in reponse in array"+responseList

    }

     

    /******* Create a Array and add all employeeIds from Database*******/

    def empIdFromDB = []

    returntripDB.each {

        empIdFromDB.add(it.value)

      //   log.info "all the employee ids in reponse in array"+empIdFromDB

    }

     

    //sorting the Data before checking for equality

    def a = responseList.sort()

    log.info "all the employee ids in reponse in array"+a

    def b = empIdFromDB.sort()

    log.info "all the employee ids in DB in array"+b

     

    BUT the result am getting is not what i want: below is the result

     

     

    all the employee ids in reponse in array[29, 2, 6, 1, 4, 3, 5]
    all the employee ids in DB in array[ , ,, , ], 6, ,, ,, ,, 4, 9, 5, , , 2, [, , , ,, ,, 2, 3, 1]

     

    Why is it not sorting the data.Also why is the DB results all screwed up?.

    It appears that db is returning results as list some times. So it is adding list when you add, inside of a list. Please check it.

    With given details, it is difficult to provide exact solution that works with your data.
    You need to check(can use instanceof List) if empIdFromDB is List/Array, then again do loop then add value.
