pointerset

Similar to pointers in C, this allows you to dereference a field like a pointer to fetch a value from another field. Usage: | pointerset threshold pointer=threshold_pointer_field ptrFieldFilter="perc*|*outlier_threshold" default=0 | makeresults | eval Field1=1 | eval Field2=2 | eval Field3=3 | eval Field4=4 | eval pointer_field="Field4" | pointerset newField pointer="pointer_field" | Field1 | Field2 | Field3 | Field4 | pointer_field | newField | | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Field4 | 4 |
