Extracting variable name

konstantin_shiriazdanovkonstantin_shiriazdanov Member Posts: 1,221 ✭✭✭✭✭
In my feature I need to take variable function as FeatureList and then get the value of the variable by getVariable(), in the common case variable may have arbitary name and it is not known beforehand. Is there any way to extract variable name from FeatureList type? Currently I have to make one more additional text input field and pass variable name as string manually, but it's not very elegant

    Unfortunately I don't know of any way to get the name of a variable set by a feature given the feature id. I'd recommend filing an improvement request here for getting this functionality added to FeatureScript.
