SOLVED: FileWriteFromArray adds new line at the end

[toto22 3]

Guys,

my script adds new line to the text file after inserting an array. How can I prevent that?

_FileWriteFromArray(@ScriptDir & '\WatchList.txt', $OldSymbols)

Or the only way to fix that is to remove the "@CRLF" afterwards?

 

Thank you

Taking a look at the _FileWriteFromArray() function, seems that the @CRLF is always added at the end of the file, both for one dimensional and two dimensional array:

FileWrite($hFile, $a_Array[$x] & @CRLF)

FileWrite($hFile, $s_Temp & @CRLF)

So to prevent that, I should probably add my array to string. remove @CRLF and paste it to file 

[toto22 3]

$String = _ArrayToString($OldSymbols,@CRLF)    

FileWrite ( @ScriptDir & '\WatchList.txt', $String )

Something like:

FileWrite($sFileName, StringStripWS(_ArrayToString($aOldSymbols, @CRLF), 3))

Pay attention

The @CRLF is not added to your array, but it is added during the process of writing your array in the file by the _FileWriteFromArray() function; so, regardless your prior "managing" of the array, the @CRLF would be added indipendently.

You could remove the @CRLF after using _FileWriteFromArray(), or use another function like FileWrite() in a loop, using @CRLF for each line except the last one.

You can find for both the two "ways" to do that, a tons of examples on the Forum
