Executing code from a file [RESOLVED]
Some of you that play on Battle.net may be familiar with the famous bot written in VB6 called StealthBot. This bot shows a great example of what I would like to do. I would like to save information in a .ini file, and retrieve it later for use.
Saving the information is the easy part, tha'ts done. Onto retrieval. StealBot comes with a file called definitions.ini. In it is some word definitions (I suppose it's for an auto-correct feature or something) anywho, inside is some information that the program reads. Example:
Code:
[Def]
TacoBell=Pure greatness.
MadFrog=An angry frog.
3dFX's Mom=A dirty hoe
Everything that is under [Def] is known to the program as a definition, and the program does things accordingly to any info under it.
I want to know how to go about doing this. I am making a progam where I want it to take an ini file with information like seen here:
Code:
[Name]
Donna
Jeff
Sarah
[GPA]
2.0
4.0
1.5
I want to read all as text (so no need in converting the numbers to strings). The number of lines under [name] will change, as will the number of lines under GPA.
I know that it would be better (and probably easier) to save them as arrays, having an array for gpa and an array for name. But, how do I get only the information under [name] into the dimensions of name array etc.
Thank you for any help.
