How to get Global scope working?

[cappy2112]

I've got two functions. THe first one creates a Gui window with 2 controls.

The second funciton is just the event handler for the button press.

I want to add text to the label in the Gui, based on the events tha occur when the button is pressed.

I've added Global $Label_2 outside of both functions, but I can't get the Label to disply the text, after calling

GuitCtrilSetData()

What am I doing wrong ?

opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

GuiShow()

Global $Label_2

Func GuiShow()

Local $Button_1

;Local $Label_2

Local $WindowID

#region --- GuiBuilder code Start ---

; Script generated by AutoBuilder 0.5 Prototype

If Not IsDeclared('WS_CLIPSIBLINGS') Then Global $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS = 0x04000000

$WindowID = GUICreate("MyGUI", 392, 316, (@DesktopWidth - 392) / 2, (@DesktopHeight - 316) / 2, $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)

$Button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Browse Destination Directory", 90, 190, 170, 60)

$Label_2 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Label2", 0, 140, 360, 40)

GUICtrlSetOnEvent($Button_1, "OnOpenDirectoryBrowser")

GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "OnExit")

GUISetState()

While 1

Sleep(1000)

WEnd

#endregion --- GuiBuilder generated code End ---

EndFunc ;==>GuiShow

Func OnOpenDirectoryBrowser()

Local $Filter = "All (*.*)"

Local $DefaultDir = "C:\Documents and Settings\Tony\My Documents\src\Python\SYNTHS\G2\Automation\Testdumps"

Local $SelectedPath = ""

Local $szDrive, $szDir, $szFName, $szExt

Local $TestPath = ""

$SelectedPath = FileOpenDialog("SELECT DESTINATION DIRECTORY", $DefaultDir, $Filter, 8, "PatchBankXXX")

$TestPath = _PathSplit ($SelectedPath, $szDrive, $szDir, $szFName, $szExt)

GUICtrlSetData($Label_2, $TestPath[1] & $TestPath[2])

i dont have your function _pathsplit()

but this works

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

remove my test and the ";" for your function(s)

@Val - _PathSpit is in my Beta Help... (Weird, because I had to write one 2 weeks ago... so I don't know which release it was in (Using .99 now))

Also, seems that Valik fixed a bug with it here: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...topic=19927&hl=

I get a runtime error in the OpenDirectoryBrowser() func

Variable used without being declared.:

It can't see $Label_2 even though it's declared global

I'm using .99 also- just got it a few days ago.

I hope I have the one with the fixed bug in it

Considering that post I sent you to was today, I doubt it's in your release... but it looks like he supplied some code you can use.

[Valik]

I fixed _PathFull(), not _PathSplit().

[SmOke_N]

I fixed _PathFull(), not _PathSplit().

Ahh... sorry Valik, I had not used either, and only glanced at it quickly, and then saw this post... Thanks for the clarification.

Does anyone have any thoughts why $LAbel_2 can't be seen in the event handler, even though it is declared GLoba?

opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

GuiShow()

Global $Label_2

AutoIt will not have seen $Label_2 as being Global at the time that you use GUICtrlSetData($Label_2, $TestPath[1] & $TestPath[2]).

You are calling GuiShow() before the declaration of Global $Label_2. Try moving Global $Label_2 to the top of the script before you call GuiShow().
