I just noticed what I think is a small bug in the "Special" templates.

My "Special1" template contains

CODE

{CacheType=Earth}Thanks %OwnerName for bringing us to this location.

When I select an Earthcache in the Publish Logs grid, and "reapply templates" the Earthcache incorrectly gets the "found it" log template. But if I clear that out and click the "Template" button on the left side of the Publish Log Edit window, I do in fact get the "Special1" template.

As a test, in case my expectations were wrong, I edited the Special1 template to:

CODE

{NameContains=Boulders}Thanks %OwnerName for bringing us to this location.

Now when I choose the Earthcache (which does have "Boulders" in the name) and "reapply templates" the Earthcache does get the correct Special1 template.

So there appears to be a problem with "reapply templates" not looking for all possible conditions in the Special templates. I did not test any of the other condition types.

Thank you for the link that fixed it. Why did it not update when I clicked 'Check for Newer Version' under the tools menu? That was the first thing I did after installing it on the new computer.

Clyde, this seems to come up quite a bit lately. Given all the database schema changes, I wonder if it might be time for a full release. It's been almost a year since the last one.

Yes, I was just thinking the same thing myself.

I will give it a couple of weeks (to let the code settle and update the help file) and then look at releasing the final.

Accordingly I will put a freeze on any new features - only bug fixes and translation updates will be released during this time.

I think the 'Helper' Macro is not compatible with the map definition file (example file Hawaii). Because this definition file (hawaii) does not contain the variable $AllStates.
The variable is only in the country map definition.

Is there another way to test the county definition or am I my own worst enemy?

Sorry to report that in build 108 CSVget() is broken.
I have a macro that I use regularly which works fine with version 107, but not 108.
It has taken me a while to identify that it was the csvget() which is causing the trouble.
I have distilled down the pertinent lines to this macro:

GSK

$tmpx = 2 $Access="" $DriveName="" $tmprows = Val(CsvGet($test,"rows")) Repeat  $tmpx = $tmpx + 1  $Access=CsvGet("*","$tmpx,2")  $Description=CsvGet("*","$tmpx,3")    $Drivetype=CsvGet("*","$tmpx,4")  $DriveName=CsvGet("*","$tmpx,5")    msgok msg="$test$_NewLine Line $tmpx Access=$Access : $Description, $Drivetype,$DriveName" until $tmpx >= $tmprows <data> Varname=$test Node,Access,Description,DriveType,Name LIETH-S,0,Local Fixed Disk,3,C: LIETH-S,,Removable Disk,2,D: LIETH-S,,Removable Disk,2,E: LIETH-S,0,Removable Disk,2,F: LIETH-S,0,Removable Disk,2,G: LIETH-S,,Removable Disk,2,H: LIETH-S,,Removable Disk,2,I: <enddata>

In build 107 and before this shows you line by line how it is doing the csvget and each line is correct as expected, but in build 108, after the second line the csvget is not returning the requested information.

I note build 109 just showed up; it is broken there as well.

Mine works with files with more than 3 columns just fine. Don't know if it helps you or not but here are my pertinent lines:

$data = GetFile($filCSV)
IF $rdoDelimComma = True
$cols = CsvGet($data,"cols")
ELSE
$result = CsvGet($data,"Delim=$_tab")
$cols = CsvGet("*","cols")
ENDIF

$rows = Val(CsvGet("*","rows"))

Repeat
SHOWSTATUS Msg="Processing row $x of $rows"

$GCNum = CsvGet("*","$x,Val($cboGC_ColNum)")
$LatNum = CsvGet("*","$x,Val($cboLat_ColNum)")
$LongNum = CsvGet("*","$x,Val($cboLong_ColNum)")

$x = $x + 1
Until $x > $rows

I wonder if it would work for you if you explicitly indicate that commas are the separator. I would agree that if that "fixes" it then it probably isn't as Clyde intended but I'll let him speak to that. But that would be the first thing I would try.

It should be noted that, although my code "handles" comma separated files, I only put that there just in case. I've never tried to run a comma separated files with that code so I don't really know if it works or not.

Sorry to report that in build 108 CSVget() is broken.

Not totally - it seems to be a quirk of the csv component and the data you have presented.

Having the very first line blank triggers the problem.

In build 107 we defaulted/forced the delimiter to a comma on start up. The fix in build 108 inadvertently removed this.

It seems that if the component does not receive a delimiter it interrogates the first line of data to determine the delimiter - which is not totally unreasonable. In your case the very first line is blank and this is obviously causing the problem.

I will fix this in the next build, but for now if you change your data such that the very first line is not blank (and contains the corrected comma delimited data), it should work as expected.

Some challenge macros create new columns of data, such as unloved days.
It would be great if this macro could provide a list of available populated columns which you could choose to go into the report.

Did you look at the release notes to see if this is accommodated?

Yes, that's my fault, as you rightly say the helper program doesn't work with the (later) county maps.

I've posted your map file to the server, so you should be now able to test it for real.

PS - You called your map image TR.gif:

CODE

$MapName = "TR" # Name of the map image on server

That's fine, and I've posted it with that name, but it might be better to rename it trier.gif (all lower case) and change the Map data file to match as it's easier to keep track of that way. I've also saved your file as trier.gig to facilitate that change.

Thanks, Clyde,

My data are generated by Windows/MSDOS wmic command; I use this function to figure out which devices are attached and the corresponding drive letters. In my macro the code is this:

GSK

$FileOut = $_AppData + "\babel.bat"  $TmpFile2=  $_AppData + "\tmp.txt"  $TMPstr = "wmic logicaldisk get name,drivetype,access,description /format:csv >"+Quote("$_Appdata\tmp1.txt")+$_NewLine  # use Type MSDOS command to strip out funky characters at start of file  $TMPstr =   $TMPstr + "Type "+Quote("$_Appdata\tmp1.txt")+" >"+Quote($TmpFile2)+$_NewLine  $result = PutFile($FileOut, $TMPstr)  FileOpen File="$FileOut" Wait=yes  $TmpStr = GetFile($TmpFile2)

As you can see I am already doing some processing for strange stuff at the start of the file because WMIC puts some strange characters on the first line (I don't understand why those are there). By piping through the Type command I get plain ASCII but it does leave the first line blank. I am open to better ways of accomplishing what I am trying to do.

In terms of what is "obvious", I would think that since the function is called "csvget()" that the default delimiter would "obviously" be a comma unless something else is found. I am OK with whatever you implement. I know this is a slippery slope and am grateful to have a csv parser at all.

1) What version of GSAK are you using? Please give us the version number shown at the left end of the GSAK window title bar: user posted image 2) Is there an error message? If so, please give us the exact text (or a screen shot) of the error message. 3) Does this happen on any cache or just on one particular cache? (I'm trying to determine if it's data related). 4) Are you able to view the user notes by using the menu Waypoint>Add/Change/Delete Notes or by pressing Ctrl-T on your keyboard? (I'm trying to determine if this is just related to the double click, or the user notes in general).

Thanks for reply. I have the following information

1) using GSAK version 8.4.1.108
2) There is no error message. It happens any time when I try to open a user note any way
3) It happens on every cache
4) It makes no difference if I use Add/Change/Delete Notes or by pressing Ctrl-T on the keyboard?

Using windows 8,1
(i have made a screenshot where you can see that the button is pushed to open a note, but the program hangs. Every other button for example corrected coordinates works fine)

hope this information will help you finding the problem

Nico

Hallo zusammen

Gibt es eine möglichkeit alle TB's und Coins welche ich in der vergangenheit bereits bei Geocaching discovert oder bewegt habe in meine Datenbank in Gsak zu übernehmen?
Mit dem Makro addTrackables kann ich ja nur solche übernehmen wo ich den Code habe, eine Funktion zum alle anderen bereits geloggten abzurufen fehlt da.

Freundliche Grüsse

¡hola!

ich habe heute per Zufall festgestellt, dass die Statistik offensichtlich, seit Oktober letzten Jahres, nicht mehr in mein Profil hochgeladen wird. Ich verwende dazu GenUploadStats.gsk in der Version 1.6.1. Kann das damit zu tun haben? Laut Versionskontrolle ist das Makro aktuell.
Hat sich irgendetwas geändert, was ich nicht mitbekommen habe?
Besten Dank für einen Tip.
