Re: [PD] Problem with Textfile and line with float

Hi Pedro,

Yes that's my problem, the Float It's difficult to explain the purpose of my programm but I need to read a line in a textfile like -> float 0 0 0

But I can't because textfile makes a bir Error

Thanks for your help Thomas

humm.. I see what you mean now. It gives a error with the float argument when it arrives at the objects after the textfile. I'm trying to figure out the reason for that.

I did that, but what are you expecting your patch to do?
Should it send each object read from text file separately?

'Cause here (with the patch I explain in my previous reply) the
textfile reads your file and outputs all the values to a [print
list] so then its just a matter of manipulating that into what you want.

I used your file for the tests. I can try to look and guess what do
you intend, but its probably less ambiguous if you explain the
purpose. :)

Best of luck,
Pedro

    Hi Pedro,
    Sorry I think I'm not very with explanation.
    I know how textfile works it's not my problem
    Have a look of this patch and textfile, it's better to
    understand the problem:
    http://www.th-th.fr/DOCS/Patch/bug-texfile.pd
    http://www.th-th.fr/DOCS/Patch/text-float.txt

    Download the twho files, open the patch and click on bang

    Cheers,
    Thomas

        I'm not following the "concept" behind your code.

        Notice that you can connect a message box "print" and send
        that command to textfile. And it reads your file to the pd
        shell correctly.

        [read your-file.txt]
        |   [print(  <-- this is a message
        | /
        |/
        |  [bang] <-- hit this to read,.
        | /
        |/
        [textfile]
        |
        |
        [print list]

        And it works. Take a look at the help file, it shows hot to
        use it. I hope I'm understanding your issue, if not,
        hopefully someone does :)

        Best of luck,
        Pedro
        p.s: remember to use the "rewind" message to textfile,
        because otherwise it doesn't read the line again! Because it
        moves forward with the seek file pointer.

           Hi pd-list,

           test this patch, I saw a curious problem. I need to read
        line with
           "float" at the begining of a line and textfile can't do this.
           It's a pity
