Get Auto Assemble Edit Form

[S1N74X]

Hello,

i am currently tinkering around with CE Lua Forms and trying to get the "Auto Assemble Edit" From.
What i am trying to archive is to generate Template Function calls.
I know there are "copy paste" solutions for custom templates but they are op and i dont need all the functionality.

Following the Wiki i found this.

Spoiler

Code: Select all

{$lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
[ENABLE]
for i = 0, getFormCount() - 1 do
  local frm = getForm(i)
  if frm.ClassName == 'TfrmAutoInject' then
  frm.show()
  end
end
[DISABLE]

The Problem is that this Method gives me the "Lua Script Edit" Form.

So any helpfull suggestions are welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Ok i found out it myself.

getFormCount() only sees "active" forms. The "Auto Assemble edit:" Form is dynamic and not permanently open

This will, however, create a new Auto Assembler window with the pre-defined text as the main body of the script:

Code: Select all

local aa = getMemoryViewForm().getComponent(279)
aa.doClick()

AAWindow = 'TfrmAutoInject'

function getFormByClass(n)
 if n == '' then return nil end
 for i = 0, getFormCount() - 1 do
  local frm = getForm(i)
  if frm.ClassName == n then
    return frm
  end
 end
end

local f = getFormByClass(AAWindow)
local script = f.getComponent(60)
script.Lines.Text = [[
{
  Game    : My Random Game
  Author  : LeFiXER
  Date    : 21/10/22

  More Stuff
}
[ENABLE]

// blah blah blah

[DISABLE]
]]

First of all thanks for your reply.
Got some questions
Where did index 279 and 60 come from ? CESource on GitHub ?
aa.doClick() should open a Form i guess but it gives me a access violation. It opens an "Service Descriptor Table" with no functionality

Is this intended ?
Am i missing something ?

Code: Select all

local aa = getMemoryViewForm().getComponent(279) <<<<<< where did you get the Index from ?  
aa.doClick() <<<<<<< gives me an access violation  

AAWindow = 'TfrmAutoInject'

function getFormByClass(n)
 if n == '' then return nil end
 for i = 0, getFormCount() - 1 do
  local frm = getForm(i)
  if frm.ClassName == n then
    return frm
  end
 end
end

local f = getFormByClass(AAWindow)
local script = f.getComponent(60)  <<<<<<<< here and below wont run

Lefixer seems to be on CE 7.4.1 which is the only version where AutoInject1 is at that position
It's better to get the name of the control, e.g:

Code: Select all

aa=getMemoryViewForm().AutoInject1
aa.doClick()

That's correct. I am, at least for now. Thanks for the tip!

Thank you.
Is there an Overview or a function to get the Names of the available Forms and o Controls ?

there's the CE sourcecode. You can ready through the .lfm and get the name property of the control you need
