Using substacks as libraries

[tpflueger]

I've been struggling with trying to pull other open source code such as fastjson but keep running into issues calling the handlers.

I created a substack "fastjson" and put the code as directed. Within the stack script within preOpenStack, I specified start using stack "fastjson" but whenever I try to call the functions from cards within the main stack I get issues.

I've looked and seen multiple examples but hoping someone could show me an example or if there is a better way of creating libraries to include for other stacks/cards.

What specific issues do you get?

[tpflueger]

I use the stack within the card script, and then within a button click I call jsonToArray.

button "Button": execution error at line 2 (Handler: can't find handler) near "jsonToArray", char 1

Run this in the Message Box and see if the stack in there (and spelled as expected):

Code: Select all

put the stacksInUse

[tpflueger]

Trying stacksInUse is empty, but if I do libraries it shows the one I want.

[FourthWorld]

That's weirder than I have words for. The stacksInUse produces a list of active libraries.

Well, at least in this dimension.

Where are you getting that library list?

[tpflueger]

I'm sorry about that, I redid what you said and it worked this time because I capitalized it correctly. It also finally started working but not entirely sure what I did this time to get it to work...

That's the magic of programming.
