Hi all...
Can anyone tell me how to write the " double quotation mark to a file...?
I can do this ...Code:
FileWriteLine($filename, "'" )
But I can't do this...Code:
FileWriteLine($filename, """ )
Here's what I'm doing...
I have one EZB project called "Lawrence" that runs on three different computers in two separate geographical locations, a Vista downstairs in my home workshop, a Win 7 in my school classroom & a Win 8 tablet that I walk around with. I seldom work in the same location for any length of time so accessing my E Z Builder files via DROPBOX and Google Drive is a given.
I frequently improve on the project whenever and where ever I can and dropbox automatically copies the project to the other computers. Unfortunately at the moment I have to manually restart the project to load the new version at the other locations. I cannot use the LoadProject command as it does not support the autostart script and I would rather not do a full system reboot.
I have got around this in the past by using the following lines of code called from my within my project Code:
# EZB PROJECT RELOAD AND RESTART
Saywait ("Updating project... Please wait." )
Exec ($Google_Drive_Folder + "\My Robotics\Batch Files\REBOOT.bat)
Sleep(1000)
Exec ($Google_Drive_Folder + "\My Robotics\Batch Files\kill ezbuilder.vbs)
The batch REBOOT.BAT file with a ping command to slow execution follows... Code:
REM REBOOT.BAT CALLED FROM EZB LAWRENCE PROJECT
c:
Echo off
ping 0.0.0.0
"C:\Program Files\EZ-Robot Inc\EZ-Builder\EZ-Builder.exe" "C:\Dropbox\My Robotics\Launcher.EZB" "Autostart"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\EZ-Robot Inc\EZ-Builder\EZ-Builder.exe" "C:\Dropbox\My Robotics\Launcher.EZB" "Autostart"
Exit
The two Autostart lines allow for the different platforms I use. Dirty but effective...
Next I kill the E Z Builder App from within "Lawrence ...
The vb script looks like this...Code:
' KILL EZBUILDER
Set oShell = CreateObject ("Wscript.Shell" )
Dim strArgs
strArgs = "cmd /c taskkill /F /IM EZ-Builder.exe"
oShell.Run strArgs, 0, false
Anyway... I now need a way to write speech marks back to disk, into a batch file, created from within my project. From way back in my early days of programming I recall doing something like it being CHR$(32) but can't seem to find a suitable command or method to print the " character.
Is there a way I can do this in E Z Script ?
So;
Code:
Or;
Code:
Does the job fine!
