Get ID or Index of current Memory Record

Post by S1N74X »

Hi there,

is there a way to figure out whats the ID or Index the current Memory Record?
I know i can use getAddressList().getMemoryRecordByDescription() and so on...
Afaik every Memory Record has a underlaying ID and Index.
Is there a way to get those more or less direct ?

Thanks for useful suggestions

Aah sh.....
Selected == Activated
So the result doesnt match if you activate more than one script

Thx anyway

Use a for loop on the AddressList and do compares if the AddressList[/i].Selected == true or AddressList[/i].Active == true or not, and do what you want to do afterwards.

Code: Select all

local al = getAddressList()
for i=0,al.Count-1 do
    if al[i].Selected == true then
        -- code here
    end
    -- or
    if al[i].Active == true then
        -- code here
    end
end

^^ or: myMr = al.getMemoryRecordByID(ID)
(i never/rarely work with 'byDescr...' since i tend to a) rearrange/rename my entries in due time b) copy/pasting from another table keeps thàt ID (unless it already exists in current table)
