File Rename bug ??

[kingzooly]

I don't use this option much or not at all really so a little confusion, its saying the file does not exist but the file path is right

if ComboBox.GetItemData(this, e_Selection) == "true" then
    File.Rename(_SourceFolder.."\\data\\.minecraft\\mods\\OptiFine_1.10.2_HD_U_E3.jar", _SourceFolder.."\\data\\.minecraft\\mods\\OptiFine_1.10.2_HD_U_E3.dis");
else
    File.Rename(_SourceFolder.."\\data\\.minecraft\\mods\\OptiFine_1.10.2_HD_U_E3.dis", _SourceFolder.."\\data\\.minecraft\\mods\\OptiFine_1.10.2_HD_U_E3.jar");
end

--Check to see if an error occurred.
error = Application.GetLastError();

-- If an error occurred, display the error message.
if (error ~= 0) then
    Dialog.Message("Error", _tblErrorMessages[error].." (".._SourceFolder.."\\data\\.minecraft\\mods\\OptiFine_1.10.2_HD_U_E3.jar)", MB_OK, MB_ICONEXCLAMATION);
end

Can anyone see why File Rename would opt to say the file is not there?

It's a bug File.Rename and File.DoesExist don't fire there commands on combo box's on 8.2

[colc]

try
result= ComboBox.GetItemData(this, e_Selection)
if result == "true" then

[kingzooly]

try
result= ComboBox.GetItemData(this, e_Selection)
if result == "true" then

That as no impact changing it from short hand to long hand its the problem of fireing of functions full stop the get item is working tested it with
a dialog to make sure we was getting the right info.

kingzooly you are right I should have used " nSelected " not e_selection
your code would never be right as it could never return "true", please read documentation

cheers

I guessing you have no idea what GetItem does the function returns "true" or "false" from what is in the combo box I now know what it's meant to be returning as I have tested it,you need to read the manual I have made loads of apps and plugins for AMS, You have not idea what your talking about and your really getting on my tit now!

You read the the manual and come back to me when when you know what your talking about, I think you need to look up the users Sim and Rexzooly, and you will know I been a posting member since 2007, I know how to code in this software with the best of them, since the code works else where and with all other code part from File functions I can clearly say this is a bug that might of been fixed after 8.2 but I posted it anyway incase it was over looked.

Please read the manual yourself and even test code before commenting as your comment was wrong, 100% wrong as the combo box does return "true" and "false" or in some combos "shim" or "mc" "" = string, so the function is checking it it returned that string and this is working fine.

Yes I remember U from earlier days, can't remember too many snippets!
code widely used

nSelected = ComboBox.GetSelected("ComboBox1");
if nSelected then

    sCategory = ComboBox.GetItemData("ComboBox1", nSelected);
    Label.SetText("Label_Category", sCategory);
    
ListBox.DeleteItem("ListBox1", -1);

    if sCategory == "Slow" then
        ListBox.DeleteItem("ListBox1", -1);

from manual

Once again your the one not reading I am checking for a string that is what == "true", means if I was looking for a boolean it would == true what are you not getting, you reply is wrong so please just listen or read

 
 if ComboBox.GetItemData(this, e_Selection) == "true" then

This is checking the GetItemData for a string NOT a boolen as this statement would look like so

 
 if ComboBox.GetItemData(this, e_Selection) == true then

Once again I already said all over commands work all other parts of my code work only problem I was getting was the File commands FFS when someone tells you it works don't try and prove them bloody wrong, that part of the code is fine, 100% fine it works! that same check I use right now for other things it's the File functions don't fire or return right!

kingzooly My sincere apologies I misread your first post
You are right there is a bug when you type Items Text / Item Data into the combobox, but works if you load both at On Show
see attached filerename.apz
Sorry again
Cheers

I already swapped out the combo box for radio check box's work and look better for my needs anyway, not a problem but please understand I been doing things in AMS what is not even designed to do, I sometimes forget simple things but It's rare that I not tested things a lot before posting about it here.

I see that AMS has a very strange bug for sure, Do you have the collection of Centaurisoldiers Plugins I grabed them when he made them all downloadable but lost them all when I stopped using AMS for a while but he as some good plugins wouldlnt might getting my hands on them again
