Retrieve variable name passed as a command line parameter

[Alpha_AI]

Hello,

I have

Macro.exe /Force=2 /Mass=3

and I need to find out the name that is passed as a variable.
eg. Force and Mass

In my macro I can retrieve the values by using

Send>%Force%
or
Send>%Mass%

but now I want the

Send>%VariableName% = %Force%
instead.

How do I find out the variable name?

I could possibly do a

Macro.exe /VariableCount=2 /VariableNames=Force;Mass /Force=3 /Mass=2

use the seperate function to separate the ; delimiter

Maybe that is the only way.

The parameters show up in the "Command_Line" system variable so its possible to separate them out without having to declare them as an additional parameter.

Try this:

Code: Select all

//Remove spaces from the command line to be sure there are
//no extra spaces in the parameters section
StringReplace>command_line, ,,param_line

//Isolate the parameters.  parameter_count-1
//will be the number of parameters
Separate>param_line,/,parameter

//Use a loop to separate each parameter name
//from each parameter value
Let>p_count=1
Repeat>p_count
  Add>p_count,1
  Let>value=Parameter_%p_count%
  Separate>value,=,segment
  //Segment_1 is the parameter name
  //Segment_2 is the parameter value
  MDL>%segment_1%=%segment_2%
Until>p_count=parameter_count
