lingo-l Creating array from string

2001-01-28 Thread Tom Jacobs
Is it possible to use a string to create and reference an array? For example, I want to create an array with one of these names -- AA, AB or AC -- but I want to do it at runtime based on certain conditions. Of course I can easily create a string with the appropriate name, but how do I turn

lingo-l Array should be called list

2001-01-28 Thread Tom Jacobs
I realize the correct term for an array in Lingo is "list". And I see that I can reference an existing list using this syntax: AA = [1, 2, 3] put value("AA") --[1, 2, 3] But my original question still stands: how can I create the list AA from the string "AA"? -- Tom Jacobs InterVision

I don't know if it is possible to create a new cast with a Lingo command, but I'd love to be able to do that. Here's what I tired, and I hope someone can interpret the results for me: You can not create a castLib with Lingo. You can switch castlibs on the fly by having a dummy castLib as a

Tom, You're nearly there. Based on your previous email, it sounds like you have the power to write the string any way you wish. If that's true, just remember to write the string out as a list. Instead of: AA = "1,2,3" use AA = "[1,2,3]" Then you can say myList = value("AA")

Hi Bjarne Roy is right, importFileInto does work to add a preexisting external castlib to a director project during authoring, but it does not work at runtime. I agree with Roy that we need to have the ability to create new castlibs at runtime without having to resort to an Xtra to do it for us.
