Hi P.O. you can do b = .bag~new~union(myArray) to place the members of myArray in a bag without iteration. hope that helps, Jon On Sat, 20 Dec 2025 at 22:06, Per Olov Jonsson perolovjonsson@users.sourceforge.net wrote: Dear ooRexx users, How do I add all the items from an array to a bag?

I think the DO OVER is a wonderful piece of syntactic sugar, but as fr as I'm aware there is no way to do what you want with it as it currently stands. I would code do index over DIM~allIndexes~sortwith(.descendingcomparator~new) item = DIM[index] end / DO / But it is nowhere near as readable and requires a clause inside the loop.

Checked for English language. It seems to me that the previous text for note 2 had an extraneous comma For a floating ::CONSTANT directive the constant value must be a single literal string**,** or a symbol that is taken as a constant. A list of alternatives would be delimited like this option 1, option 2,... option (n-1) or option(n) in which case the commas serve as ors This mistake looks like it is repeated in the patch, where you insert a new ',, or' where normally a simple comma would suffice....

Hi Garry, I made a start on this some years ago. Google calendars can feed an ical. I produced a class that provided me a set of events from an ICAL file. I never completed the work as I had control over the calendar and was able to parse out the event types and recursions I wanted. However, if that was the way that you wanted to go you could get some mileage from my code. The great flexibility of the ICAL format makes it quite difficult to parse out all events, but my ical event class and the ical...

Hi Helmut, this is an interesting question. I have no previous experience using excel events. I had a play and it looks like the problem is that an event named 'SHEETS' is fired,. This in itself is odd, as looking at the M$ documentation I would have expected the event to be called NEWSHEET or WORKBOOK_NEWSHEET. The SHEETS event seems to expect the workbook object to be returned by the event handler. the online dosc for the NEWSHEET event at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/excel.workbook.newsheet...

Hi Robert, it looks like you have found a bug in the createRadioButtonStem method of userdialog. The radio button group methods are all written in Rexx and contained in ooDialog.cls so you can look at the code yourself. They attempt to automatically size the group according to the labels you provide and the dialog's font. It looks like the OP intended for the buttons to be vertically spaced 1.5 font heights apart. However, code was put in the createradiobuttonstem method to cope with the special...

You have hit a GOTCHA with ooDialog. You can choose whether or not to make use of autodetection - by default it is on. It's a bit tricky to explain, but all your window dialog controls have ooRexx attributes assigned to them, and if you use the userdialog getdata method, then the attributes will be populated with the value (title usually) of the Windows control. If you use the setdata method, then the windows controls values (title usually) will be populated with the value of the attribute. This...

Hi Karen, I don't know for sure, but I think it is unlikely that the cause of this difference is the change of operating system. It is far more likely that there is some change in the context that you are running the script in that means that the variable AMTREQUESTED does not receive a value where it did in your old context. I suggest that you find where in your code (probably just before line 491) this variable would normally be initialised and try to work back from there. good luck and let us...

Hi Erich, thank you for taking a look at this. I do use ::requires, and used ::requires when I first hit this problem. When reporting the error, trying to get a minimum set of instructions to reliably cause the crash led to rexxtry (where of course you cannot use ::requires). One sin that I have been guilty of in the past is not being very case-literal when I require ooDialog.cls, so it may be that I have had a script that required 'oodialog.cls' and another script that required 'ooDialog.cls' and...

I don't know if I can answer this question definitively, but long ago I had to write to lpt1. This would be in a back version of ooRexx and probably under Windows XP. At that time I found that stream~new('lpt1') did not work, but that if I made the name into a file with any extension it connected to the port. so: stream~new('lpt1.jon') would connect the stream to lpt1 This is obviously not correct behaviour and it may have been fixed by now, but probably worth a try. port = .stream~new('com1.xxx')...

Hi Peter, In that case I think that your code will work if you include the second argument of 'H' or .true on the new method. As per convention, the documentation for the new method is found under the init method in the rexxextensions manual para 1.6.5. You should not need to set the fields as literals, when the CSVlineIn method finds a field encased in quotes (or other delimiter if you change it) then it sets that field as a literal automatically. let me know how you get on Jon On Mon, 3 Jul 2023...

Hi Peter, CSVStream tries to be all things to all people. It doesn't always succeed. As the CSV convention and usage allows for headers or no headers, you have to tell CSVStream if you want it to treat the first row of your file as headers rather than data. If you open your CSVStream with a second argument of 'H' or .true then a CSVStreamHeader object will be provided at the 'Headers' attribute and you should not see this particular error message. However, I'm not sure that that gets you any closer...

I think this needs to be documented. The reference text for the menus is a bit spaghetti like. Ideally this would go with insertMenuItem, but that text is shared with the other types of menus. So, I would suggest instead that section 28.2.3.2 paragraph headed ID should have the following appended.to the final sentence ", and the ID value must be divisible by 16".

Hi Erich, Thanks for that, but from a user's point of view, this is broken. I've had no experience of this area before, but looking at the ooDialog documentation if you want to add items to the systems menu, unless you want to use one of the names listed in the case statement in SC2Rexx then you have to use numeric ids supplied as decimals. The user (ie ooDIalog Coder) must supply the id in the sysMenu insertItem method. s/he can then connect that menu item by supplying the same id on the sysMenu...

Hi Mike, Well I'm not a developer - just a user of ooRexx who made very heavy use of ooDialog for a decade or so. I contributed some bits written in ooRexx to the language at one point.

I have raised a bug for it (https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/bugs/1892/) and perhaps it will be an easy one to fix given what we have discovered. Thank you for taking the trouble.

Well, I still don't have answers, but I see what appears to be happening.

Hi Jim, Yes I agree with Gil & Rick. Looking back at the 4.2.3 ooDIalog.pdf you seem to have an extra comma in the line of code that you posted above, however, I think that that just means that your group box is given an id of -1 if you try to use it and the id of 121 is ignored, and probably is not relevant to what we are looking at. Can you see 'C4K' in your code? I don't see it anywhere in the ooDialog code, but it may have been built dynamically. You may see an attribute directive like ::Attribute...

Dear Jim, Although it is troubling that ooRexx has crashed, please don't be offended, but my experience suggests to me that the source of the problem could well be in your code and not at the point that you think it is. It is not my place to say this, but, should it prove to be a bug in ooRexx 4.2.0 or ooDialog you will be lucky to get that fixed now. The windows diagnostics are imho a red herring, but the title of your bug "Object "C4K" does not understand message "CHECKED"" gives a hint as to what...

Sorry Paul, I left off the tooltip handler ::method ToolTip_Customer unguarded expose list use arg list_id, listrow, suffix, maxlen custID = list~itemText(listrow,1) -- get customer id tip = self~tooltipCustInfo(custId,suffix,listrow,list_id) return tip Jon On Thu, 6 Jan 2022 at 08:41, Jon Wolfers sahananda@users.sourceforge.net wrote: Hi Paul, Listview Controls have their own mechanism for tooltips.

Great stuff Ruurd. Here is a helper class that I found I had written. It could probably do with strengthening before facing the public. You would use it like this: url = 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key="apiKey"&query=" query"'" oJson = jasonFromUrl(url,.file~new(.file~temporaryPath||'\mytemp.txt')) hope that is helpful.

Hi guys, I have used rest Apis for eventbrite, mailchimp and postcode.io from open object rexx using rexxCurl and the json class. I think I have only needed the get calls so far. It is certainly doable, but would benefit from a helper class, which I might be able to put together at some point. Not at home at the moment so can't post examples at the moment. You might get more response if you post to the rexxla list. Hope that helps, Jon On Mon, 27 Sep 2021, 19:30 Helmut Renner, donhelmi@users.sourceforge.net...

Hi Paul, I think the best way to alert the developers to this is to open a bug report here https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/bugs We have had problems with false positives before here https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/bugs/1713/ and here https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/bugs/1760/ If you want to assess for yourself whether this is likely to be a false positive you could upload the offending file to VirusTotal https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/upload and see what other AV programs make of it.

Hi M, I'm away from home without computer, so can't try anything, but I wonder if some of your connected methods are hitting the guard and whether making them unguarded would get you your response immediately?

Good question. Looking at the repository https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/code-0/HEAD/tree/ooDialog/, there is only one commit between the two versions (apparently made by me - though I have no memory of it). It was a bugfix to the ooRexxtry utility removing some artefacts left in the code which prevented ooRexxTry from being tokenized. So, unless you use the ooRexxTry utility AND you intend to tokenize it (which I'm not sure why anyone would do) the two releases are effectively the same. The commit...

Ah. My version: ooRexx Documentation 4.2.4 ooDialog Reference January 2019 svn revision 11688 You may have an older version of ooDialog. Mark Miesfeld and Oliver Sims made considerable improvements and extensions before they died. 4.2.4 is marked as a preview here https://sourceforge.net/projects/oorexx/files/ooDialog/, and we have no developers actually working on ooDialog since Mark passed, but I have been using it since 2015 and am not aware of any problems. You can install 4.2.4 with any ooRexx...

Sorry, I broke a cardinal rule in my example. All event handler methods in ooDialog need to be unguarded. Looks like I got away with it this time!

Hi m-stgt, I have not done this myself (not the key-up bit anyway), but reckon you should be able to do it. There is a lot to keystroke detection in ooDialog. Refer to sections 4.7.15 and 30.3 of the ooDialog reference. I think you will need to use both in tandem. I'd really like to hear how you get on with this, and you might consider posting any questions and successes to the rexxLA members list (free to join at rexxla.org where you might reach more ooDialog users. Hope that helps Jon

Hi m-stgt, This part of the object paradigm may appear difficult at first, but actually is easy to resolve and very powerful. When an instance of a class creates another instance of the same or different class, it can pass itself to the created instance using the variable self. The receiving instance can then send messages to it's 'parent'. here is some code to demonstrate dad = .parent~new kid = dad~createChild kid~tellParentToSayHello /* =================== */ ::class parent /* ===================...

Any ideas? You could post your code. Do you mess with the output monitor (.output)?

Thanks Paul, I've not used the sqlite package in ooRexx so I can't give you a definitive answer, but I wonder if you have sufficient memory whether building a single mega-sql statement in rexx and forgoing the binds might improve your performance. You might try something like this: values = .array~new do tile over tiles values~append("("tile~zm,tile~column,tile~y,"'"tile~blob_data"')") end sql = "INSERT INTO tiles (zoom_level,tile_column,tile_row,tile_data) VALUES" values~makestring('l',',') stmt...

Hi Paul, I think we need some context to answer that question. What database? Why the ooRexx discussion list? In Mysql for instance you can use the INSERT instruction thus INSERT INTO table (fieldlist) VALUES (valuelist 1),(valuelist 2)...,(valuelist n) which may be what you want Jon On Fri, 27 Mar 2020 at 20:14, Paul Higgins phiggins-99@users.sourceforge.net wrote: I should add that each blob is a jpg in a file.
