[Tsung] Use of ts_file_server for input data stream

[Pentti Kavanagh]

You're right, it didn't work when I ramped up the users.   

I will test your solution and let you know the results. 

Thanks,

Pentti

hmm, it's not currently possible to set a new dyn variable within a
function called in a substitution

I think your code doesn't work (you can get a wrong account) if you have
concurrent sessions.

A quick & dirty solution is to use the process dictionnary:

user(_) ->
   	 {ok,Line} = ts_file_server:get_next_line(),
         [Username, Passwd, Account] = string:tokens(Line,";"),
         put(account,Account),
         "tbxUser=" ++ Username ++ "&tbxPwd=" ++ Passwd.

account(_)->
     get(account).

(warn: not tested !)
