script to read from ini file

[mor.bas]

hi,

I need a script that I will give it a path to ini file and it will read data there and put the output(increment by one ) in another file (giving by the user )



like : test.bat [path to ini file] [path to output file]



I have something like that right now:

Code: Select all

call:getvalue %INIFILE% "BuildVersion"  OUTPUTLEVEL

 set /a OUTPUTLEVEL+=1

 echo %OUTPUTLEVEL% >"C:\Users\test.txt"

 goto:eof

 

:getvalue

 rem This function reads a value from an INI file and stored it in a variable

 rem %1 = name of ini file to search in.

 rem %2 = search term to look for

 rem %3 = variable to place search result

 FOR /F "eol=; eol=[ tokens=1,2* delims==" %%i in ('findstr /b /l /i %~2= %1') DO set %~3=%%~j

 goto:eof

How to change it to work properly like I need?


Thanks in advance...

Are you providing the INI filename?

[mor.bas]

Yes I should provide the ini file name and the output file name

[foxidrive]

if you are changing the build level then batch math is by default only integer math. Is that the problem you have?

What issues are you having?

Hi,
I just want to use a coomand line like: test.bat [path to ini file] [path to output file]

test.bat [path to ini file] [path to output file]

ini file and output file are the things that get change.

BuildVersion is only the value the got a varible Like:

Buildversion=45.

Right now I need to write command like :test.bat [path to ini file] [path to output file] "BuildVersion" "" [path to output file] and i want an input like:

test.bat [path to ini file] [path to output file]

I have something like that right now:

Code: Select all

call:getvalue %INIFILE% "BuildVersion"  OUTPUTLEVEL

Solution:

Code: Select all

:getvalue inputFile term result=
for /F "delims=" %%a in ('findstr %2 %1') do set %%a
set /A %3=%~2+1
exit /B

This code assume that the value in the .ini file have the format of an assignment, for example:

Code: Select all

Buildversion=45.

If the format is different, a small modification is needed.

In order to complete the original request:

like : test.bat [path to ini file] [path to output file]

Just complete it this way:

Code: Select all

@echo off
rem test.bat [path to ini file] [path to output file]
for /F "delims=" %%a in ('findstr BuildVersion %1') do set %%a
set /A OUTPUTLEVEL=BuildVersion+1
echo OUTPUTLEVEL=%OUTPUTLEVEL%> %2
