Theres a ton of debugging statements in there to show you how to find out what went wrong for your self - maybe try and follow this approach -

This fixes one and one only of your callbacks so it works - you will need to go through all the others working out what gets sent in and what comes out...

@d-healey

There is a preset file with the following content!

[Lindon]

@d-healey said in inline function:

@MikeB That error implies that presetFile is not what you think it is.

Use if (presetFile.length > 0) before trying to load it to make sure a preset file has actually been found. Also if you only want a single file and you know the name of the file why not use .getChildFile() instead of findFiles?

it isnt because you cant say this apparently:

local presetFile = FileSystem.findFiles(getPresetFolder(),presetName + ".preset", true);

instead you have to say this:

local tempName = presetName + ".preset";
local presetFile = FileSystem.findFiles(getPresetFolder(), tempName, true);

[d.healey]

I just tried loading the snippet Lindon posted and it seems to work just fine on my system.

You need to add more checking statements to validate that the data you are expecting at each stage is actually returned. Currently the script has no checks and just assumes that all data will be there and will be correct.

[d.healey]

@Lindon Working here with local presetFile = FileSystem.findFiles(getPresetFolder(),presetName + ".preset", true);

[Lindon]

@d-healey -yeah well that was essentially the line I changed to get a file back - then passed the file back into his function and loadAsObject() there... and as you say it now works.

@MikeB - what David and I are both saying is in order to proceed and improve you will need to learn how to debug your own work - theres plenty of examples in the snippet I posted above to get you on the right track.

AND: you need to type check/safety check your calls - make sure you are getting back the object type and values you think you are... As you will see that roughly all I am doing in the snippet I posted : checking what has arrived and what is in variables at each step along the way...until I track down what the problem is.

@Lindon @d-healey

Thanks a lot guys,

I've got to call it a day. HISE keeps crashing.

I will work on it intensively over the next few days.
Have a nice Sunday evening
(I think it's already Monday for Lindon)

@MikeB its actually late afternoon for Dave and me (we are in the same time zone..) - keep plugging away at it.

@Lindon
Funny, somehow I sent you to Australia :-)
But you are both in Great Britain.

...and it's tea time there and coffee and cake here in Germany.

Well I did live in Australia for 25 years...so maybe I seem Australian....
