preference->entries() returns the number of line with text on them. Comment lines are included in the count not just name value pairs as documented.
Version 1.3 I am using a perfs file as a language file where each entry has a number for its name. eg. ; button menu on the left 0:Chord, Arc and Sector 1:Triangle one 2:Triangle two 3:Dovetail 4:Bolt circle 5:Thread measurement 6:Dividing head 7:Tap drill 8:Regular Polygon (hexagons etc.) 9:Set metric as default 10:Set inch as default 11:About 12:Quit ; the window title 13:Metal Shop Calculator (metric mode) 14:Metal Shop Calculator (inch mode) The erroneous result returned by preference->entries() make a work around necessary, it is not elegant and detracts from the robustness I had initially intended. _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
