Empty segment handling example 2

In this example, an HRL is composed of four segments:

  • FRL1 (four chars)
  • FRL2 (four chars)
  • VRL1 (terminator $)
  • VRL2 (terminator $)

Repeat While is selected and configured using a Field of FRL2 and a Value as efgh.

The incoming message is:

 abcd    efghijkl$mnop$

When Fill Spaces/Add Terminator is selected, the parsing result is:

FRL1: >abcd<
FRL2.(0): >    <
FRL2.(1): >efgh<
VRL1: >ijkl<
VRL2: >mnop<       

When Active Null is selected, the parsing result is:

FRL1: >abcd<
FRL2: (emtpy)
VRL1: >    efghijkl<
VRL2: >mnop<
