Hi, all
I am use C# to write a EG Add-in. What I want is to get a specified variable's unique value. I can get the specified column and row's value through the Consumer.ActiveData.Accessor.Value property.
I have a idea:
Submit a sql code to get the unique value and create a temp data set;
And I get the unique value from the temp data set.
But I think this is too complex and waste too much resources. Is there a easy way to do this?
Just like the Filter and Sort Node in the EG, the pic:
Slash,
Check out this blog post for a small example of using the SAS.Tasks.Toolkit.SasData namespace:
Listing the data sets in a library within your custom task - The SAS Dummy
Then look at this helper method:
SAS.Tasks.Toolkit.Helpers.TaskDataHelpers.GetDistinctValues()
It returns a List<string> collection of formatted values from the data you specify, using a SAS format that you specify.

Thank you!
Chris, this is good way to do it. There are a lot of API Functions in the Help Document. I should take a close look.
