Sometimes, there is an increasing counter necessary. Odysseus provides a number of different counters that can be used in mep expressions:
counter()
Each time, this method is called, the value will be increased by one starting with 0.
counter(boolean)
Same as counter, but when the boolean is true, the counter will be reseted.
counter(number1, number2)
Same as counter, but this counter moves between number1 and number2
concounter(boolean)
Similar to counter, but here the counter is only increased if boolean is true. Else the counter-function will return the current value.
Remark:
- If you want to start with a specific count, simply use the mep function
(value+counter())
- If you want to increase e.g. by 2, use a mep function too: (
2*counter()
)
