Description Aaron Ponti 2011-01-26 09:01:22 CST

We used to have a simple macro in ImageJ that would open a text file (containing just one line with a series of parameters), get the content from the window and parse it. Something like:

open(fileName);
info=getInfo("window.contents");
// parse info ...

The problem in Fiji is that open() command now loads the file in the new script editor (instead of in one new window as in ImageJ), and therefore the

info=getInfo("window.contents");

line does not find it...

We solved the problem by using File.openAsString() (which is better), but still the behavior of open() in Fiji remains a bit confusing.

Comment 1 Johannes Schindelin 2011-03-15 09:35:16 CDT

I would rather not change that behavior, as it has proven quite useful to us. Further, I would recommend staying with openFileAsString() since it does not have the multi-threading problems open() && getInfo() has (if another file gets opened in the meantime, you will get the wrong contents without even seeing an error).

So I am setting this issue tentatively to "Wontfix".

Comment 2 Aaron Ponti 2011-03-15 10:26:50 CDT

As I said we are now using File.openAsString() which is anyway much better: so the Wontfix option is perfectly fine for us ;-) Thanks.
