read last line

[acoustic25]

Newbie here!!

The control box is a newsfeed so i'ts updating everytime. What I want this script to do is just read the last line instead of the full page.

 

 

global $content, $find, $search
$search = "Pause"
$content = controlGetText("[CLASS:#32770]", "??", 1008)
msgbox(0,0,$content)
$find = StringRegExp($content, $search)
if $find = 1 then

MsgBox(0, 0, "check")
else
    msgbox(0,0,"none")
EndIf

What do you mean by "full page" ? Is it $content ?

And what about $search ?

Give more details

You could use a stringsplit at whatever line separator character it uses.

?

Local  $str
For $i = 1 to 10
    $str &= 'Line ' & $i & @CRLF
Next
;Msgbox(0,"", $str)

$lastline = StringRegExpReplace($str, '.*\R(?!\s*$)', "")
Msgbox(0,"", $lastline)

Sorry, I didn't read your 1st post carefully.

You can also use _FileCountLines to get the last line number.

But as JohnOne says, you may need to use StringSplit to get lines returned.

Thing is though, you are going to need to write thee data to an actual file first.

Looks like this is coming from a window control.

Why ?

$content looks like a ready-to-use multiline text retrieved using a ControlGetText(). Did you try the regex ?

How do you access variable data with File* functions.

EDIT: You use Ubound($array) -2

JO,

Sorry I edited my previous comment about StringSplit

As we can't know if the text ends with a crlf or not, the only (maybe) reliable way using StringSplit is this

$s = StringSplit($str, @crlf, 1)
For $i = $s[0] to 1 step -1
  If $s[$i] <> "" Then Exitloop
Next
$lastline = $s[$i]
Msgbox(0,"", $lastline)

But if the text is in a variable, File* funcs are useless and a regex like the one in post #4 works well

It seems the best thing to do is to wait for information from the author, no ?

[JohnOne]

RegEx definitely will work, but I'm just so lousy at it, I rarely suggest it.

[mikell]

Too bad !

thanks for the help guys but the script i wrote on post 1 actually works.. 

What didn't work was the macro "Run(@ProgramFilesDir & "folderproggy.exe")". It's not on my post but it's part of the whole script.

The script actually works on scite editor but when I compiled it to 64bit, it wont run. I tried the compiled 32bit on vmware and it seems to be ok.

So I replaced the @ProgramFilesDir  with the actual directory and eveything is good.

by the way i'm running on win7 64 bit and win7 32 bit on vmware..

There's a 32 bit @ProgramFilesDir: "Program Files (x86)"

And a 64 bit @ProgramFilesDir: "Program Files"

Plus you have to escape the spaces: Run('"' & @ProgramFilesDir & ' folderproggy.exe"').
