Arrays

[Jas321]

I searched the forum, but couldnt find an specific answer for my problem. This use to work, but doesnt seem to work anymore.

In the script I would do:
proc myproc {} {
global botnick settings
foreach c [channels] {
set settings($c) "0"
}
}

However, now it just comes back with:
can't read "settings(#mychan)": no such variable

Thanks

Are your names in the proper case? You should use [string tolower $c] in the array to be sure. Also why not do ".tcl array names settings" and see what's in there.

At the risk of repeating what stdragon said, since he said it first
I agree with him 100% because I had the same problem, and this is how I solved it.

Code: Select all

proc myproc {} { 
global botnick settings 
foreach c [channels] { 
set settings([string tolower $c]) "0" 
} 
}

and in the other procedure where you use settings($chan)
put this line immediately after the global declaration (if any)

Code: Select all

set chan [string tolower $chan]

So now both your array references match since they are forced to lower case.

are you sure that the error is coming from that proc? shouldnt get that error unless reading the var :/
