[3.19] BUG: List doesn't import from 3.17 properly.
|
This string list doesn't get converted correctly. The two items with the %if functions in them lose information.
3.17:
| Code: |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<cmud>
<var name="tree_affs" type="StringList" copy="yes">asthma|impatience|earthrot|dizziness|masochism|relapsing|itching|dementia|generosity|madness|blurry_vision|shyness|crippled_throat|vomiting|stupidity|addiction|plodding|confusion|anorexia|justice|stuttering|idiocy|hallucinations|deadening|vertigo|haemophilia|aeon|darkshade|epilepsy|shivering|agoraphobia|claustrophobia|weakness|clumsiness|ablaze|frozen|hatred|loneliness|%if( (%db( @afflictions, broken_arm) == 2 and %db(@afflictions, damaged_left_arm) and %db(@afflictions, damaged_right_arm)) or (%db( @afflictions, broken_arm) == 1 and (%db(@afflictions, damaged_left_arm) or %db(@afflictions, damaged_right_arm))),%null,broken_arm)|lethargy|hellsight|dissonance|hypochondria|sensitivity|paranoia|body_odor|disloyalty|slickness|hypersomnia|blood_aff|recklessness|%if( (%db( @afflictions, broken_leg) == 2 and %db( @afflictions, damaged_left_leg) and %db( @afflictions, damaged_right_leg)) or (%db( @afflictions, broken_leg) == 1 and (%db( @afflictions, damaged_left_leg) or %db( @afflictions, damaged_right_leg))), %null, broken_leg)|broken_limb|unknown_focus|unknown</var>
</cmud> |
3.19 alpha:
| Code: |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<cmud>
<var name="tree_affs" type="StringList" copy="yes">
<value>asthma|impatience|earthrot|dizziness|masochism|relapsing|itching|dementia|generosity|madness|blurry_vision|shyness|crippled_throat|vomiting|stupidity|addiction|plodding|confusion|anorexia|justice|stuttering|idiocy|hallucinations|deadening|vertigo|haemophilia|aeon|darkshade|epilepsy|shivering|agoraphobia|claustrophobia|weakness|clumsiness|ablaze|frozen|hatred|loneliness|%if( (%db( @afflictions, broken_arm) |lethargy|hellsight|dissonance|hypochondria|sensitivity|paranoia|body_odor|disloyalty|slickness|hypersomnia|blood_aff|recklessness|%if( (%db( @afflictions, broken_leg) |broken_limb|unknown_focus|unknown</value>

You have a string list that contains functions? How odd. How do you use it?

The problem is the == in those items. That is making CMUD think that this is a database variable instead of a string list.
In the newer versions of CMUD, it tries to create a nested table. So when importing this string list, when it gets to the item with the ==, it gets treated as a "key=value" nested database variable.
If you do a #VAR tree_affs you will see the json table that is created and will see those keys.
Unfortunately, this is one of those cases where the old string list syntax does not properly represent the true variable structure.
With the new json table, you should be able to recreate this variable by putting quotes around the function call so that CMUD treats it as a literal string and not as a nested db variable.
But I'm not sure I see any way to properly import this list and still properly handle normal nested database variables that other people might have.
It's a case where you were pushing what could be done in the old system and it just doesn't convert properly into the new system and will require you to edit it. |

That's along the lines of what I was thinking, Zugg.. Also rehab, I use %expand when referencing the variable.

OK, I found a way to deal with this specific case. The actual problem was that your function item has a format like this:
key1=key2=value...
this was causing CMUD to try and create sub-tables within sub-tables. Since this syntax for nested tables was never supported, I modified CMUD to not allow this.
The correct syntax that CMUD generates for nested sub-tables is:
key1="key2=value"
So I fixed it to only created nested tables when the "" are properly placed around the sublist. Since your %if functions don't have the " after the =, they get imported correctly now. |
