When I have a multi-page document, my final line of text on most pages is split horizontally, and the top of the text is on one page, and the bottom of the text starts the new page. In Gambas2/Qt3, we could issue a line break after a certain number of lines, but this capability disappeared with Gambas3/Qt4. -- View this message in context: http://gambas.8142.n7.nabble.com/gambas3-printer-tp47647p49923.html Sent from the gambas-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Dive into the World of Parallel Programming!

Re: [Gambas-user] Issue 485 in gambas: 'Like' square brackets problem
It appears that the problem happens if the first letter of the string being
matched appears anywhere in the Pattern before the actual match. Your
original examples were:
Print GambasIDE Like {alma,Gambas,szilva,GambasIDE,otto}
Output: False
Print GambasIDE Like {alma,GambasIDE,szilva,Gambas,otto}
Output: True
*Actually, any g in the list, before GambasIDE, will interfere with the
match:*
Print GambasIDE Like {alma,g,szilva,GambasIDE,otto}
Output: False
but:
Print GambasIDE Like {alma,szilva,otto,GambasIDE,g}
Output: True
It is only the *first letter* in the Pattern that is a problem -- the
other letters do not have any bad effect. If we delete the g from the
word Gambas, the result is correct:
Print GambasIDE Like {alma,ambas, ambasIDE,szilva,GambasIDE,otto}
Output: True
*Note that if you use the * symbol, it eliminates the problem:*
Print GambasIDE Like *{alma,Gambas,szilva,GambasIDE,otto}*
Output: True
** eliminates the sensitivity of the patterns to their location in the
list.

Jon

Re: [Gambas-user] Stopping a CLI program
Right -- my fault! When I suggested the example /proc/meminfo, I was just looking for any script example, to discuss using string variables in SHELL and EXEC for very long command strings. Tobias provided the coolest option to do that job. But you've pointed out that I could have chosen a better example.

Re: [Gambas-user] Line continuation
If you are using SHELL, you can assign lines to variables. If the string continues on multiple lines, assign the text to string variables, and concatenate those variables. The example below merely shows SHELL accepting a string variable as its command string: DIM sRes as String DIM shellString as String shellString = cat /proc/meminfo Shell shellString To sRes If you use EXEC, the flexibility is more limited, as the command cannot be contained in a variable, but the following will work: DIM execString as String DIM sRes as String execString = /proc/meminfo Exec [cat, execString] To sRes -- View this message in context: http://gambas.8142.n7.nabble.com/Line-continuation-tp44561p44582.html Sent from the gambas-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.

Re: [Gambas-user] shell
Maybe I'm not understanding the problem, but sudo always wants a password, right? In which case you have to feed it a password with the Exec or Shell command. I'm not a shell script expert (just learning), but I assume that the string would look like this: Exec [system.shell, sudo sh -c 'echo out /sys/class/gpio/gpio27/direction' EOF\nmypassword\nEOF] where you have already dimensioned and set the value of mypassword in your code. If you have dimensioned a variable like strShellResponseString, you will be able to display a response from sudo in your program, if the password is incorrect: Exec [system.shell, sudo sh -c 'echo out /sys/class/gpio/gpio27/direction' EOF\nmypassword\nEOF] TO strShellResponseString note: My additional code is a here document code block. feeds a command list to an interactive program or a command, like sudo. EOF means end-of-file, but it also terminates input from stdin. The newline escape code \n is needed before and after the password variable, to place the password where sudo expects it, after a linefeed from stdin, followed by another linefeed. And then the second EOF terminates this input, which allows sudo to evaluate the password and either execute the sh command, or give an error message if the password is wrong. No extra spaces in all of this, or they'll be interpreted as part of the code! -- View this message in context: http://gambas.8142.n7.nabble.com/shell-tp44500p44508.html Sent from the gambas-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.

Re: [Gambas-user] ColumnView Sorting
Hi, Nigel -- I've never used the ColumnView (or other View) to sort the data -- I always sort the arrays where I keep data, and then re-fill the ColumnView or other View, if necessary. Your question raised a point that I've never explored, so I dug into it and found that you CAN sort data in a View, using the built-in capabilities of the View object. The documentation is on this page: http://gambasdoc.org/help/comp/gb.qt4/_columnview_columns?v3 Frankly, I sometimes find the Gambas online documentation to be a little cryptic, so (like usual) I wrote a simple program to explore and demonstrate sorting in a ColumnView. Here is the essential code block, especially note the inner/2nd If-Endif block: 'Note that when you change the sort of the ColumnView from one column to another, 'the sort column header will display a down-arrow symbol. Public Sub Button1_Click() If TextBox1.Text 'In other words, if TextBox1.Text is not NULL. If TextBox1.Text = 0 Or If TextBox1.Text = 1 Or If TextBox1.Text = 2 Then ColumnView1.Columns.Ascending = True ColumnView1.Columns.Sort = Val(TextBox1.Text) Else Message.Info(Type a Column ID: '0','1', or '2', OK) TextBox1.Text = Endif Else Message.Info(Type a Column ID: '0','1', or '2', OK) TextBox1.Text = Endif End My e-mail address is: nicho...@acegroup.cc If you send me your e-mail address, I'll send you a tar.gz file of the complete program, just so you can play with it and see how the sort works.
