Jeff987 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) I would like to read a file, text or ini to get functions to perform... this way I could change the actions after the main code is compiled... I have this as an example, before I build it into my real project I'm working on. what I started with is a method to populate a combo box and then select the function that was selected. this works. I had tried this with the first script as the gui and the functions in an include... I realize that this embeds it into the .exe when compiled. So I'm not sure how to go about this if its even possible... the batches.au3 is what I would like to be able to fileinstall() and edit after compile. It will be mostly batch type operations, but might need to change here or there over time expandcollapse popup#include #include "batches.au3" #include Local $ii = "", $iii = "" #region - GUI Create Opt("GuiOnEventMode", 1) GUICreate("test") GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "Terminate") Local $fx_combo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 25, 25) For $i = 0 To UBound($fx_fx) - 1 If $fx_list[$i] == "" Then ContinueLoop If $i == 0 Then $ii = $fx_list[$i] ContinueLoop Else $ii &= "|" & $fx_list[$i] EndIf Next GUICtrlSetData($fx_combo, $ii, $fx_list[0]) GUICtrlCreateButton("Click to ...", 226, 23) GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_combo") Func _combo() $iii = GUICtrlRead($fx_combo) Local $iiii = ($fx_fx[_ArraySearch($fx_list, GUICtrlRead($fx_combo))]) Execute($iiii & '()') EndFunc ;==>_combo #endregion - GUI Create GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate") While 1 Sleep(100) WEnd Func Terminate() Exit 0 EndFunc ;==>Terminate here's the batches.au3 #include "Constants.au3" Global $fx_list[20] = ['Dir','Get Dir (X)','Set AutoLogon','Change Password','Set Services','','','','','','','','','','','','','',''] Global $fx_fx[20] = ['_dir','_getDir()','_AutoLogon()','_Password()','_svcs()','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',''] Func _dir() Local $sReturn =Run(@ComSpec & ' /c ' & 'Dir') if @error then MsgBox(-1,"error","screwed up",5) MsgBox(-1,"Dir", $sReturn) EndFunc Func _getDir($dir=@WorkingDir) Global $iPID = Run(@ComSpec & ' /c dir '&$dir, @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDOUT_CHILD + $STDERR_CHILD), $sReturn = '' _while() EndFunc Func _while() While 1 $sReturn &= StdoutRead($iPID) If @error Then ExitLoop EndIf WEnd ;ConsoleWrite($sReturn & @LF) EndFunc Edited July 21, 2012 by Jeff987 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abberration Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Your code is hard to follow, but from your description, I would recommend using an ini file. You can't embed something permanently and be able to edit it after it is embeded. If you want to change things later, it must be in a separate file. Ini files are perfect for that.

JohnOne Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) I'm not to certain, but I think you might be able to do something with embedded files say for example you use a file from resource, you might be able to replace that resource after compilation. Sorry I don't know how to use files from resource, and am no 100% that you can do what I described.

Jeff987 Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 so maybe I try to say I want to read a text or an ini. $variable=filereadline("somefile",1) where $variable will be equal to Consolewrite("test" &@CR) Can this be made to work _func() Func _func() execute($variable) endFunc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnOne Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I think you can easily test that. AutoIt Absolute Beginners Require a serial Pause Script Video Tutorials by Morthawt ipify Monkey's are, like, natures humans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
