A cool technique & damn fast-
Read your string in via FileIO. Then use the ScriptText procedure. Look in
Director's help.
BTW - I have not checked this script if it's Ok - it's just a rough guide.
on hReadFile
tScript=QUOTE & "on hGetFileIOdata" & QUOTE & RETURN & ?
QUOTE & " tList ="&& tFileString & RETURN & ?
QUOTE & " return tList" & RETURN & ?
QUOTE & "end"
tMember = new(#script)
tMember.name = "DataScript"
tMember.scriptType = #movie
tMember.scriptText = tScript -- director automatically compiles this
script
tData = hGetFileIOdata ()
end
Note: When saving your string watch out for QUOTE & ENTER characters.
Simple search and replace routine will fix this. Of course it will not work
for values such as objects.
Cheers,
Tom.
