Combining/sequencing macros
Submitted by highab on Thursday, 3 February, 2011 - 10:49
I have three macros to run one after the other (or combine into one if I can)....

macro 1: populate hypersearch window with results of search for text between specific tags (and the tags)
macro 2: copy the text from the hypersearch window to a new buffer
macro 3: delete the tags and the superfluous bits

if I run them manually they do what I want. If I try to combine them or call them from a fourth macro that just calls them, they don't work right... I think they try to run at the same time rather than waiting for the previous one to finish ("node has no children". How do I get around this please?

Have you tried adding:

VFSManager.waitForRequests();

between the calls for the macros?

Cheers, tvojeho

Thanks for the hint... it still said the hypersearch had no child nodes, so it didn't wait long enough even if it did wait.
 
Then maybe the waitForRequest

Then maybe the waitForRequests line could be put immediatly after the search command in the first macro to wait for it to finish? Otherwise you'll just have to hope for some beanshell expert to help you, not an amateur like me Smiling.
