RandomNumbers In AX /D365

 Hi,

static void CreateRandomNumbersInAX(Args _args)

{

    RandomGenerate randomGenerate;

    ;

    randomGenerate = RandomGenerate::construct();

    randomGenerate.parmSeed(new Random().nextInt());

    info(int2str(RandomGenerate.randomInt(0,2147483647)));   //RandomInt(RangeFrom,RangeTo)

    //Note: Range from should be more than natural number 0 and more.

 

}

OutPut

1786303728

To understand the formula behind this random number please refer randomInt() in RandomGenerate class.

The formula in randomNumber generation is not similar to library function of dotnet.

Note: We cannot treat this randomGenerated Values as primary key, this may repeat with same range.

GUID in AX 2012 / D365

 //< What is GUID>

// GUID 16 bit large range of alphanumeric similar to RecID to treat as primary key of a table.

static void CreateGUIDInAX(Args _args)

{ 

    str 60 strGuid;

    ;

    info(Winapi::createGUID());         // Creates GUID and removes the braces

    info(guid2str(newGuid()));           // Creates GUID with braces

    //NOTE: GUID is not a string so we needs to convert GUID to str for using...

}

Output:

C2B4FEBF-2393-43BB-9EA5-B173B907CA2A

{BAD14349-5837-4AC3-9B9B-9D6FB0F86BEC}

note: Your output and mine needs to be same.

Regards.
