hi
can we set environment variable to null value
In my flow i had a compute node in which i am setting an environment variable
environment.variable.area[i]=null;
bcos i dont want the previous environment variables to be continued when i am processing the next record. |

Hi,

Try this
environment.variable.area[i]=''; |

It goes like this
While
count the records
while
set environement
end while
insert
SET Environment.Variables.AREA_LIST[IN_I]=null;
count = count + 1;
end while |

there nothing in the eSQL except
| Quote: |
| SET Environment.Variables.AREA_LIST[IN_I]=null; |
can we see what ur setting ........ its fine if you dont want to share ur code
that statement however is working fine for me
so i would guess there is more to ur code than jsut that statement thats causing the issue

If you read the docs for the SET statement you would find this syntax:
SET Environment.Variables.AREA_LIST[IN_I] VALUE =null;
which will not delete the element (which is what happens without the VALUE clause).
