Member Function Documentation

◆ ArrayElement()

_.Library.String ArrayElement ( array )

static

Return a random array element.

For details on using this class, see Using the Populate Utility.

The <CLASS>PopulateUtils</CLASS> class contains a number of utility methods used by the <CLASS>Populate</CLASS> class.

◆ BuildReferenceSample()

BuildReferenceSample	(	class,
		sample,
		size,
		selpct
	)

static

Return an array of ids selected randomly from the.

Extent query of the class in the sample parameter. The array is of the form: sample=n sample(1)=id1,sample(2)=id2,...,sample(n)=idn Parameters: class - the class to retrieve samples from sample - the array of samples (returned) size - the maximum number of samples to retrieve selpct - the percentage of instances to be randomly selected. for example, 25 means approximately 25% of the instances will be selected (1 in 4).

◆ FirstName()

_.Library.String FirstName ( _.Library.String gender )

static

Return a string containing a random first name.

gender is a optional string used to control the gender of the generated name: 1 is Male, 2 = Female, "" is either.

◆ Float()

_.Library.Integer Float	(	_.Library.Float	min,
		_.Library.Float	max,
		_.Library.Integer	scale
	)

static

Return a random floating point value between min

and max (if present).

◆ Integer()

_.Library.Integer Integer	(	_.Library.Integer	min,
		_.Library.Integer	max
	)

static

Return a random integer value between min

and max (if present).

◆ Name()

_.Library.String Name ( _.Library.String gender )

static

Return a string containing a random name as lastname,firstname.

gender is a optional string used to control the gender of the generated name: 1 is Male, 2 = Female, "" is either.

◆ PosixTime()

_.Library.PosixTime PosixTime	(	_.Library.PosixTime	min,
		_.Library.PosixTime	max
	)

static

Return a random PosixTime value that is between the specified min and max PosixTime values.

If either min or max is not a valid PosixTime value, then the default value is used instead. The default min value is -6919738016441081856 (1900-01-01 00:00:00) The default max value is the current timestamp value

◆ Random()

_.Library.Integer Random ( _.Library.Integer n )

static

Return a random number from 0-n using a random number generator that is.

seeded by <class>Library.Populate</class>.

◆ SSN()

_.Library.String SSN ( )

static

Return a random U.S.

Social Security Number.

◆ String()

_.Library.String String ( _.Library.Integer len )

static

Return a string value of the form <random character>_<random number less than 9999> and whose length.

does not exceed len.

◆ Syllable()

_.Library.String Syllable ( _.Library.Integer maxlen )

static

Return a string of random syllables and spaces.

The algorithm uses several syllable 'lists'. First, a list is randomly chosen. Then a syllable from that list is chosen and added to the string. Then, if a random boolean is TRUE, a space is appended. Syllables are added to the string until the string length exceeds a random length less than or equal to the parameter maxlen.

◆ TimeStamp()

_.Library.String TimeStamp	(	_.Library.TimeStamp	min,
		_.Library.TimeStamp	max
	)

static

Return a random TimeStamp value that is between the specified min and max timestamp values.

The default min value is the default <method>Date</method> min date value with time = 0. The default max value is the default <method>Date</method> max date value with time = 86399 (23:59:59). If either min or max is not a valid TimeStamp value, then the default value is used instead.

◆ USPhone()

_.Library.String USPhone ( )

static

Return a random U.S.

phone number.

◆ USState()

_.Library.String USState ( )

static

Return a random U.S.

state abbreviation.

◆ USZip()

_.Library.String USZip ( )

static

Return a random U.S.

Zone Improvement Plan (ZIP) code.

◆ ValueList()

_.Library.String ValueList ( vallist )

static

Return a random piece from a delimited list.

The first character in the list is the delimiter.

◆ VarString()

_.Library.String VarString ( _.Library.Integer maxlen )

static

Return a random string value of random length.

up to maxlen characters.
