[erlang-questions] qlc expression help.

[Dmitri Girenko]

It looks similar to the problem that I had - the code worked only when
subresult was evaluated.

maybe the patch here helps?

Subject: [erlang-questions] qlc expression help.

 

Hi all,

I'm having trouble creating a qlc expression which does what I want.
I'm basically trying to create a filter for QH1 with a predicate that
depends on QH2.  
In the example below, test2/0 gives me the result I'm looking for, but
it requires the second QH to be eval'd.  I'd like the expression to look
like what's in the test1/0 function.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
-Adam
