[2.14a] Question about CMUD Argument passing
|
I used to use quotes to group arguments with white space that needed to be passed to other aliases. In CMUD it doesn't evaluate them in quotes. Is there a way to group the arguments together (which contain white space) so that they are passed as one argument containing white space?
An example is shown below where I pass FirstArgument as the first argument and "Second: %1" as the second. Is there a way to group it together but to have it evaluate the %1 so it passes it correctly?
<class name="test" id="9">
<alias name="fun" id="10">
<value>fun2 FirstArgument SecondArgument %1</value>
</alias>
<alias name="fun2" id="11">
<value>#say First: %1 ---- "Second: %2"</value>
</alias>
</class>
Result:
========================
Execute:
fun hello
Result:
First: FirstArgument ---- Second: %2 |

Found the answer, brackets {} are the way to do this. Groups text with white space but allows %1 to be substituted.

You could also concatenate the string, like so:
| Code: |
<class name="test" id="1">
<alias name="fun" id="2">
<value>fun2 FirstArgument "SecondArgument "%1</value>
</alias>
<alias name="fun2" id="3">
<value>#say First: %1 ---- Second: %2</value>
</alias>
</class> |

Yep, another good way of doing it, thanks Larkin.
