 Posted: Fri Apr 18, 2008 5:37 pm Post subject: dynamic var as v%var% doesn't work |
 |
|
i have the following piece of code
| Code: | Counter=1
Loop, %edAantal%
{
IniRead, Tabs, %Inifile%, bus, %Counter%
Gui, 4:Tab, %Counter%
Gui, 4:Add, ListBox, v%Tabs%
Counter+=1
} |
As you can see, i read several values from a inifile (wich is done correctly by the way), but AHK fails to add my ListBox because of the v%Tabs% part. How can i fix this to make it work.

what is the content of your INI file?
how do you know
| Quote: | | (wich is done correctly by the way), |
where is your output?
tip > Counter can be replaced with %A_index% and is autoincremented every loop itereation so no need for counter+=1 or counter = 0
what is the output of
msgbox, %Tabs%

this is the contents of the inifile:
| Code: | [bus]
aantal=10
1=SCC
2=Emma
3=ABB (boschstraat)
4=Intratuin Heerlen (In de Kramer)
5=Intratuin Kerkrade (Wiebachstraat)
6=Groen
7=Schoonmaak
8=Facilitair
9=Metaal
10=J. Defauwes |
and the values i get back from this code:
| Code: | Inifile = bus.ini
IniRead, edAantal, %Inifile%, bus, aantal
Counter=1
Loop, %edAantal%
{
IniRead, Tabs, %Inifile%, bus, %Counter%
msgbox, %Tabs%
Counter+=1
} |
are the numberd parts (SCC, Emma, ABB (boschstraat), Intratuin Heerlen (In de Kramer), etc. etc.) each as a seperate message, so the loop works. but AHK is complaining about the line | Code: | | Gui, 4:Add, ListBox, v%Tabs% |
(wich i had to remove for the msgbox to work) He perticularly complains about the v%Tabs% part

What your current code is doing is adding a new listbox, (not an entry) for each entry in your ini. then giving it the variable reference of whatever is in the inifile.
What you probably want is either one listbox, with all the contents in one.
Or multiple listboxes with the contents of each one either way it will be.
| Code: | Inifile = bus.ini
IniRead, edAantal, %Inifile%, bus, aantal
Loop, %edAantal%
{
IniRead, Tabs, %Inifile%, bus, %a_index%
Gui, 4:Add, ListBox, vList%a_index%,%tabs%
} |
| Code: |
Tabs:=""
Inifile = bus.ini
IniRead, edAantal, %Inifile%, bus, aantal
Loop, %edAantal%
{
IniRead, Tabs, %Inifile%, bus, %a_index%
Tabs.=tabs "|"
}
Gui, 4:Add, ListBox, vList%a_index%,%tabs% |
Not tested but something like one of them

What i want to do (if you look correctly) is to add a listbox on several tabs. The var of the listbox MUST have the name from the inifile, as there will be data added later to the listbox (and later to that same inifile, in different sections). eacht tab get's a different section in the inifile. the bu section of the infile is a indicator for how many section (and tabs) there will be in the inifile
that's why i tried this: | Code: | Gui, 4:Tab, %Counter%
Gui, 4:Add, ListBox, v%Tabs% |
, but AHK trips over the v%Tabs% part. that is where my problem is.
Here you have full code of the gui i try to create:
| Code: | ShowEditor()
{
Gui, 4:+owner1
Gui +Disabled
Inifile = bus.ini
IniRead, edAantal, %Inifile%, bus, aantal
Counter=1
Loop, %edAantal%
{
IniRead, Tabs, %Inifile%, bus, %Counter%
edTabs = %edTabs%|%Tabs%
Counter+=1
}
StringTrimLeft, edTabs, edTabs, 1
Gui, 4:Add, Tab2,, %edTabs%
Counter=1
Loop, %edAantal%
{
IniRead, Tabs, %Inifile%, bus, %Counter%
Gui, 4:Tab, %Counter%
Gui, 4:Add, ListBox, v%Tabs%
Counter+=1
}
;LV_Add om items toe te voegen
Gui, 4:Tab
Gui, 4:Add, Button, w50 Default, OK
Gui, 4:Show,, Bewerk INI
}
return |
[edit]in my new code, i only removed the counter var and replaced it with %a_index%, but that posts no change[/edit]
[edit2]here is the exact error that i get: | Code: |
Error: A control's variable must be global or static. The current thread will exit.
Specifically: vSCC
Line#
095: StringTrimLeft,edTabs,edTabs,1
096: Gui,4:Add,Tab2,,%edTabs%
097: Counter = 1
098: Loop,%edAantal%
099: {
100: IniRead,Tabs,%Inifile%,bus,%Counter%
101: Gui,4:Tab,%Counter%
---> 102: Gui,4:Add,ListBox,v%Tabs%
103: Counter += 1
104: }
106: Gui,4:Tab
107: Gui,4:Add,Button,w50 Default,OK
108: Gui,4:Show,,Bewerk INI
109: }
110: Return
---------------------------
OK
--------------------------- |
[/edit2]

thats probably your problem.
As your gui is created in a function, all vars are local by default.
try this:
| Code: | ShowEditor()
{
global
Gui, 4:+owner1
Gui +Disabled
Inifile = bus.ini
IniRead, edAantal, %Inifile%, bus, aantal
Counter=1
Loop, %edAantal%
{
IniRead, Tabs, %Inifile%, bus, %Counter%
edTabs = %edTabs%|%Tabs%
Counter+=1
}
StringTrimLeft, edTabs, edTabs, 1
Gui, 4:Add, Tab2,, %edTabs%
Counter=1
Loop, %edAantal%
{
IniRead, Tabs, %Inifile%, bus, %Counter%
Gui, 4:Tab, %Counter%
Gui, 4:Add, ListBox, v%Tabs%
Counter+=1
}
;LV_Add om items toe te voegen
Gui, 4:Tab
Gui, 4:Add, Button, w50 Default, OK
Gui, 4:Show,, Bewerk INI
}
return |

Now just one more problem. The OK button i create AFTER each list control is put INSIDE the tabcontrol. How do i get it Below the tabcontrol again (preferably without using a position marker x and y)
I solved it already by just using the x10 parameter of the Ok button
