1. Selecting objects? #3834 |
I don't know if that was a good title to the post, but to the point... I'm trying to make a chess program/server, but I'm not sure how I can refer to a specific stringgrid (to store piece locatoin , for example), without doing something like this...
SELECT CASE grid$
CASE IS = "1"
StringGrid1.Cell(1,1) = "WP"
CASE IS = "2"
StringGrid2.Cell(1,1) = "WP"
CASE IS = "3"
StringGrid3.Cell(1,1) = "WP"
etc...
END SELECT
Of course, I would go with this if naming one specific cell was all I needed, but it has to be a code where stuff depends on other variables... I don't want to have 5 different copies of the same code or something...
Is there like a way to assign them an array, like in
DIM piece(8) AS STRING
or something?

not clear about the condition you want to handle. but you could simplify the CASE by doing this:
SELECT CASE grid$
CASE "1","2","3","4", ..
StringGrid2.Cell(1,1) = "WP"
etc..
CASE ELSE
code..
END SELECT
while for array you could use DEFSTR, DEFINT, DEFLNG, DEFBYTE, ... to define group or specific numbers or string such as:
DEFSTR piece(1 TO 8) = {"1","2","3","4",...,"8"}
hope it helps...

sorry, a typo in array example above. here the correction:
DEFSTR piece(1 TO 8) = {"1","2","3","4",...,"8"}

Guidance,
Something wrong with your code syntax processor in this forum. it put the quote (") symbol before the bracket ({) even I type it right. now I'm type it without using "code" handler:
DEFSTR piece(1 TO 8) = {"1","2","3","4",...,"8"}

5. Re: Selecting objects? #3850 |
I mean... if I had 3 different stringgrids, is there a way to say do StringGrid(n), where n is a number from 1 to 3, so i could do something like
StringGrid(n).Cell(1,3) = "blah"
instead of
SELECT CASE grid$
CASE IS = "1"
StringGrid1.Cell(1,3) = "blah"
etc...
END SELECT
I mean, I only want it into ONE of the stringgrids, and that specific one is specified by the variable grid$. |
6. Re: Selecting objects? #3857 |
The bug fixed. Thanks very much!
You mean, DIM stringgrid(8) AS QSTRINGGRID
doesn't work? As far as I know, RQ doesn't support dim as array for all QObjects. |
7. Re: Selecting objects? #3859 Posted by: 2004-04-17 01:03:23 |
DIMming multiple StringGrids doesn't work in my experience, but you could use multi-dimensional arrays to reference different areas of one StringGrid.
E.g. DIM Array(2, x, y) and use the grid as below: <-- x --> <-- x --> <-- x --> y +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | |0|0|0|0|0|1|1|1|1|1|2|2|2|2|2| | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | |0|0|0|0|0|1|1|1|1|1|2|2|2|2|2| | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ V |
8. Re: Selecting objects? #3862 |
Which QObjects can actually be arrayed?

9. Re: Selecting objects? #3863 Posted by: 2004-04-17 08:48:34 |
Apart from the global components, like Clipboard, Printer, etc., just about all the normal 'building block' components apart from StringGrids and File/MemoryStreams, although ISTR that there's a workaround somewhere on the site for the latter. It's also not possible with extended objects. |
10. Re: Selecting objects? #3865 |
So would you just do it like you do a normal variable? |

DECLARE SUB Setup
DIM Panel(4) AS QPANEL DIM Edit(3) AS QEDIT DIM RDB(3) AS QRADIOBUTTON
CREATE Form AS QFORM OnShow = Setup Center ShowModal END CREATE
SUB Setup FOR A% = 0 TO 4 Panel(A%).Parent = Form Panel(A%).Top = A% * 53 Panel(A%).Height = 53 IF A% = 4 THEN Panel(A%).Align = 4 Panel(A%).Width = 125 END IF NEXT FOR A% = 0 TO 3 Edit(A%).Parent = Panel(4) Edit(A%).Align = 1 Edit(A%).Text = STR$(A%) RDB(A%).Parent = Panel(2) RDB(A%).Top = 20 RDB(A%).Left = A% * 45 + 5 RDB(A%).Width = 40 RDB(A%).Caption = CHR$(65 + A%) NEXT END SUB
