Question regarding Callback & [NOTIFICATION.FILEOPENED]

[Sascha Offe]

Hi there,

first of all, thanks for PythonScript, great plug-in!

I've written a script that scans for ".LOG" at the beginning of a text file, and if it's found, appends a timestamp to the file. It works fine if I call the scipt manually and also if I put it directly in my custom startup.py.

But my plan was actually to use the callback feature, so that each opened file will be automatically checked -- but either I misunderstood the use of Callback or I'm missing something else.

import datetime

def updateLog():
        [...]

notepad.callback(updateLog, [NOTIFICATION.FILEOPENED])

A test with "if" returns true, so the registration seems to work.
I've also change the initialisation from LAZY to ATSTARTUP.
But nothing happens when I open my test file, neither via double click nor File -> Open...

Using
- Notepad++ 6.3.2 (Unicode)
- PythonScript 0.9.2

Thanks in advance for your help!

s.

I'm not in a place to check at the moment, but I think your callback
function needs an argument (just one called, for example "args").
The console may show a better error message.

You were right, the argument was missing; thanks.
