Hi guys,
I have to correct myself. In my previous mail I told you that the
SwitchToConfiguration function does not work. It is not true. It works,
but on an interesting way. The situation is:
I use notepad for testing purposes. It has its own config set, called of
course notepad. I have copied its dictionary file and renamed to
notepad2. I have written and compiled a script file, too, named notepad2.
I have written a script in the notepad.jss to switch to the notepad2
configuration. This one:
script ChangeConfig
switchtoconfiguration ("notepad2")
saystring ("The currentyl active config is: " + GetActiveConfiguration ())
saystring ("test it")
endscript
In the notepad2.jdf dictionary file are only 2 entries. The first one
changes the word "test" to "blablabla". The second one should replace
the word "it" to "sad".
So, when I invoke the script, then I hear:
"The currently active config is notepad2.", and after it, "blablabla
sad", in place of "test it". It is correct, because I have changed the
announcement of them in the dictionary file of notepad2 configuration At
least it is tho hear "edit box", which signs that notepad's text editor
has the focus again and I can begin type. I assumed, that if I write the
words "test" and "it", then JJAWS will translate them according the
recently loaded notepad2 dictionary to "blablabla" and "sad", as they
are recorded in this file. But not! It seems, that at the end of the
script, which has canged the configuration to notpad2, this
configuration unloads and the original one takes in effect.
It is interesting, because if I use SwitchToScript function, then JAWs
loads the passed script and it remains in effect until I close the
notepad or I load a new one.
How could I get the same functionality with configurations? I would
like that after change remain it in effect until I rechange it or close
Notepad. But after restarting Notepad its original configuration should
be loaded again.
Thanks,
Csab
