send variable between 2 scripts

Submitted by JeremyA on Thu, 2018-05-24 07:07

Hi
I am trying to send a variable from one script to another.

When I click on script "test02", I activate "test03". I want "test03" to send the variables to "test02" to display BatchNumberLoading, BatchNumberTotal and Progressbar. It is to follow the export.

I reduced my code to focus on my problem

I know that the code below is not well placed,I do not know where to place it

 
BatchNumberTotal.text= theFilesNumber as string 
BatchNumberLoading.text= theFilesCurrent as string

But the mark value received is "undefined"

Do you have an idea? Thx

Test02.ms 

 
(
 
-- 	BatchNumberTotal.text = theFiles as string
-- 	BatchNumberLoading.text = f as string
	PathBatchMAX = "C:\Users\PC_new\Documents\Perso\Script\Test03.ms" 
 
 
	rollout test02 "test02"
	(	
 
		group ".max" (
		button btn_SaveMaxBatch "Batch copy" align:#right toolTip:"Current version useless and 3 previous versions!"
		)
 
		label BatchNumberLoading "No Value" align:#right across:3
		label BatchNumberSeparate "/" align:#center width:10
		label BatchNumberTotal "No Value" align:#left
		Progressbar loading color: [169,38,158]  height:20 align:#right 
 
		on btn_SaveMaxBatch pressed do 
			(
 
 
 
				fileIn PathBatchMAX
 
				BatchNumberTotal.text= theFilesNumber as string 
				BatchNumberLoading.text= theFilesCurrent as string 
 
			)	
 
	) -- end rollout
	createDialog test02 220 120
)

Test03.ms

	thePath = getSavePath()--get a path dialog to specify the path
	if thePath != undefined do--if the user did not cancel
	(
		theFiles = getFiles (thePath+"\\*.max") --collect all max files in the dir.
		theFilesNumber=theFiles.count
		theFilesCurrent=theFilesNumber-theFilesNumber
 
		print (theFilesCurrent as string + "/" + theFilesNumber as string)
 
		for f in theFiles do-- go through all of them
		(
			loadMaxFile f--load the next file

Thank you for your answer.

Thank you for your answer. It's good!

I added Progressbar and scene name loading.

Thx again ;)

.

Test this:

(
	global test02
-- 	BatchNumberTotal.text = theFiles as string
-- 	BatchNumberLoading.text = f as string
	PathBatchMAX = "C:\Users\PC_new\Documents\Perso\Script\Test03.ms" 
 
 
	rollout test02 "test02"
	(	
 
		group ".max" (
		button btn_SaveMaxBatch "Batch copy" align:#right toolTip:"Current version useless and 3 previous versions!"
		)
 
		label BatchNumberLoading "No Value" align:#right across:3
		label BatchNumberSeparate "/" align:#center width:10
		label BatchNumberTotal "No Value" align:#left
		Progressbar loading color: [169,38,158]  height:20 align:#right 
 
		on btn_SaveMaxBatch pressed do 
		(
			fileIn PathBatchMAX
		)	
 
	) -- end rollout
	createDialog test02 220 120
)
Clearlistener()
 
(	
	thePath = getSavePath()--get a path dialog to specify the path
	if thePath != undefined do--if the user did not cancel
	(
		theFiles = getFiles (thePath+"\\*.max") --collect all max files in the dir.
		theFilesNumber=theFiles.count
		theFilesCurrent=theFilesNumber-theFilesNumber
 
		print (theFilesCurrent as string + "/" + theFilesNumber as string)
 
		for f in theFiles do-- go through all of them
		(
			loadMaxFile f--load the next file
 
	-----------------------------------------------------------
	-- MAKE SOME SCRIPTED CHANGES TO THE SCENE HERE...
	-----------------------------------------------------------
 
		-----------------------------------------
		-- SAVE MAX START
		-----------------------------------------
 
-- 		temp_node = box()
-- 		temp_node.name = substituteString maxfilename ".max" ""
-- 		fileName = temp_node.name
-- 		delete temp_node					
-- 		saveMaxFile (MaxFilePath+fileName+"_new.max") useNewFile:false
-- 		print (fileName) 
 
		-----------------------------------------
		-- SAVE MAX END
		-----------------------------------------	
 
		-----------------------------------------
		-- COUNT StART
		-----------------------------------------	
		theFilesCurrent=theFilesCurrent +1
 
		fileNameCurrent=substituteString f thePath ""
		-----------------------------------------
		-- COUNT END
		-----------------------------------------	
		print (theFilesCurrent as string + "/" + theFilesNumber as string)
		print (fileNameCurrent as string + " SAVE")
 
		::test02.BatchNumberTotal.text= theFilesNumber as string 
		::test02.BatchNumberLoading.text= theFilesCurrent as string 
 
 
		)--end f loop
 
	  resetMaxFile #noPrompt --at the end, you can reset
-- 	  BatchNumberTotal=theFiles 
	)--end if
 
 
)

Or make the theFilesNumber and theFilesCurrent global so both script to have access to them.
