Put variable into Android field

[shawnblc]

I'm trying to do somethin like the following, but I keep getting a script error. How would I put something into the Android Field and make it not editable?

Code: Select all

put char 44 to 77 of line 3 of URL "https://domain.com/string.php" into tandroidFld1
answer tandroidFld1
put tandroidFld1 into widget "androidFld1"

Here's the error.

Code: Select all

Type	Chunk: destination is not a container
Object	Navigation Bar
Line	put tandroidFld1 into widget "androidFld1"
Hint	hiliteChanged

Hi Shawn,

well, an URL is no container in the LC sense like a variable or field.
You need to load the URL first, then do the rest:

Code: Select all

...
## This should do the trick:
put URL "https://domain.com/string.php" into tURLContent
put char 44 to 77 of line 3 of tURLContent into tandroidFld1
answer tandroidFld1
put tandroidFld1 into widget "androidFld1"
...

Best

Same error. Still plugging away.

Did you check "Internet" etc. in the "Standalone Application Settings" for your Android App?

And what does THE RESULT tell you:

Code: Select all

...
put URL "https://domain.com/string.php" into tURLContent
if the result <> EMPTY then
  answer "Error:" & CR & the result
  exit to top
end if
put char 44 to 77 of line 3 of tURLContent into tandroidFld1
answer tandroidFld1
## put tandroidFld1 into widget "androidFld1"
## See below for correct syntax
...

AH! Completely overlooked this one, that is not the correct syntax for the widget!

Code: Select all

...
answer tandroidFld1
## put tandroidFld1 into widget "androidFld1"
set the text of widget "androidFld1" to tandroidFld1
...

I repeat: The dictionary is your friend!
