Nasal values in Xml params

Postby clm76 » Wed Jun 06, 2018 6:14 pm

Hi,

Is it possible to use nasal variables as params in a xml file ?
Example : In this code, some properties are used as aliases to write checklists texts.
Code: Select all
<PropertyList>
...
  <params>
    <header>instrumentation/checklists/Tittle</header>
    <L0>instrumentation/checklists/L[0]</L0>
    <L1>instrumentation/checklists/L[1]</L1>
    <L2>instrumentation/checklists/L[2]</L2>
    <L3>instrumentation/checklists/L[3]</L3>
    <L4>instrumentation/checklists/L[4]</L4>
    ...
  </params>

I'd like to replace these properties by variables stored in a hash in a nasal file.

Either there's something very profound about your question, or this is normal property I/O - you can use getprop/setprop or props.nas functions to read properties into Nasal variables and vice versa.

Thanks Thorsten,

My goal was to remove many setprop/getprop in my checklists code but finally I’m rewriting it with Canvas structure.
