IniReadSectionNames problem? [SOLVED]

[rootx]

The path are cutted! maybe double [] in the path generated the error.

Example:
 

[I:\aaa\cc\aa vv vv vv (dd).txt]
name=aa vv vv vv (dd).txt
[I:\ffff\ffff\ffff ffff ffff ffff  [ffff]\ffff\ffff.txt]
name=ffff.txt

$ini = IniReadSectionNames(@ScriptDir&"\my.ini")
_ArrayDisplay($ini)
for $x = 1 to UBound($ini)-1
ConsoleWrite($ini[$x]&@CRLF)
Next

I'm not sure why [] is the standard ... and the solution is to skip the brackets inside the path string. But I'm not sure if you can, or you need to clean the name of the folder or change approach.

Are you sure that square brackets are allowed in a section name?
Do INI-files support escape characters or encoded characters?

[rootx]

for example it can happen that people write of the strange path as C: \ name [IBIS 001] 2017. But ini standard are

[C: \ name [IBIS 001] 2017\file.txt]

name=IBIS 001

years=2017

etc...

Just over a month ago, I created a viewer (ASCII Checker) to help with determining INI entry issues.

It might be of some help to you, and can be found here.

There is also a link in the quoted section, to a Wikipedia article about INI files and escape characters.

rootx,

You will have to do some pre/post-processing of the section names if you think there might be [ ] characters in the section name:

#include <Array.au3>

$sIniFile = "Test.ini"

$sPath = "C: \ name [IBIS 001] 2017\file.txt"

$sEscPath = StringReplace(StringReplace($sPath, "[", "\5B"), "]", "\5D")

IniWrite($sIniFile, $sEscPath, "Key", "Value")

$aSections = IniReadSectionNames($sIniFile)

For $i = 1 To $aSections[0]
    $aSections[$i]  = StringReplace(StringReplace($aSections[$i], "\5B", "["), "\5D", "]")
Next

_ArrayDisplay($aSections, "", Default, 8)

And please do not be so quick to declare a bug - best ask first next time.

Thx, But the question is... if you have this ini file you are not able to read this file.

[C: \ name [5BIBIS 001] 5D 2017\file.txt]
Key=Value

#include <Array.au3>

$sIniFile = "Test.ini"

$aSections = IniReadSectionNames($sIniFile)

For $i = 1 To $aSections[0]
    $aSections[$i]  = StringReplace(StringReplace($aSections[$i], "\5B", "["), "\5D", "]")
    ConsoleWrite($aSections[$i])
Next

_ArrayDisplay($aSections, "", Default, 8)

And how can you open this file C: \ name [5BIBIS 001 with iniread?

[rootx]

Thx.

[Melba23]

rootx,

You will need to read the ini file into an array, preprocess the [ & ] characters which are not bounding the section and then rewrite it - something like this:

#include <Array.au3>
#include <File.au3>

$sPath = "C: \ name [IBIS 001] 2017\file.txt"

$sIniFile = "Test.ini"

$hFile = FileOpen($sIniFile, $FO_OVERWRITE)
FileWrite($hFile, "[" & $sPath & "]" & @CRLF & "Key=Value")
FileClose($hFile)

Global $aLines
_FileReadToArray($sIniFile, $aLines)

_ArrayDisplay($aLines, "Original ini content", Default, 8)

For $i = 1 To $aLines[0]
    ; Look for the section names
    If StringLeft($aLines[$i], 1) = "[" Then
        ; Extract the sectionname from within the [ & ]
        $sSectionName = StringTrimLeft(StringtrimRight($aLines[$i], 1), 1)
        ; Escape any [ & ] and rewrit ewith the external [ & ]
        $aLines[$i] = "[" & StringReplace(StringReplace($sSectionName, "[", "\5B"), "]", "\5D") & "]"
    EndIf
Next
; Now rewrite the escaped ini file
_FileWriteFromArray($sIniFile, $aLines, 1)

; Now read it
$aSections = IniReadSectionNames($sIniFile)

For $i = 1 To $aSections[0]
    $aSections[$i]  = StringReplace(StringReplace($aSections[$i], "\5B", "["), "\5D", "]")
Next

_ArrayDisplay($aSections, "Section names from ini", Default, 8)

$file = _FileListToArrayRec(@ScriptDir,"*.txt",1,1,1,2)


For $s = 1 to UBound($file)-1
    IniWrite($sIniFile, $file[$s],"name",StringRegExpReplace($file[$s], "^.*\\(.*)$", "$1"))
Next

$aSections = IniReadSectionNames($sIniFile)

For $i = 1 To $aSections[0]

Thx, but at the same time i have writted!! I try your script thx again.

[rootx]

Anyway Thx guys, special thx Melba23 4your time.
