Change "notes" into NC code

[FTKnur]

I want to change all lines that begins with "#" to change into a direct NC-Code:

Check tool!

#Q215=2

should look in the NC-Code:

;Check tool     <-- Comment

Q215=2            <-- NC-Code

I tried a little bit with this post:

https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/hsm-post-processor-forum/control-variable-thru-notes/m-p/6373339#M992...

but I don't get it to work.

Can someone help me with this?

original PP:

  if (properties.showNotes && hasParameter("notes")) {
    var notes = getParameter("notes");
    if (notes) {
      var lines = String(notes).split("\n");
      var r1 = new RegExp("^[\\s]+", "g");
      var r2 = new RegExp("[\\s]+$", "g");
      for (line in lines) {
        var comment = lines[line].replace(r1, "").replace(r2, "");
        if (comment) {
          writeComment(comment);
        }
      }
    }
  }

Hallo @FTKnur,

mal mit folgendem Codeschnippsel versuchen..

  if (properties.showNotes && hasParameter("notes")) {
    var notes = getParameter("notes");
    if (notes) {
      var lines = String(notes).split("\n");
      var r1 = new RegExp("^[\\s]+", "g");
      var r2 = new RegExp("[\\s]+$", "g");
      for (line in lines) {
        var zeile = lines[line].replace(r1, "").replace(r2, "");
        if (zeile[0]=="#") {
          writeBlock( zeile.split("#")[1].trim() );
        } else {
          writeComment( zeile );
        }
      }
    }
  }

Gruß

Hello,

Thanks for posting! Perhaps this code will do what you are looking for:

  if (hasParameter("notes")) {
    var notes = getParameter("notes");
    var lines = notes.split("\n");
    for (var i = 0; i < lines.length; ++i) {
      if (lines[i].charAt(0) == "#") {
        writeBlock(lines[i].substr(1, lines[i].length - 1));
      } else {
        writeComment(lines[i]);
      }
    }
  }

Vielen dank @makko74,

hat genau das bewirkt, was ich wollte 🙂

Thanks @GeorgeRoberts,

yours works too but add after each comment line a blank line in the code. This from Mario works perfect!
