Easy Save Help!

[chocolacode]

Hey Gavalakis,

I am trying to use the Easy Save nodes for loading and Saving Lists. However I don’t see the Node “EasySaveList”. Can you please help to add it?

Also can you please provide me an example of how to save and load for a dictionary or a List?

Thanks in advance!!

Hey,

For loading lists EasySaves provides a method and there also exists a node in the integration for that “EasySave/Loading/EasyLoadList(T)”.
For saving though, there is no special method provided by EasySave. As such you can simply use the “EasySave/Saving/EasySave(System.Object)” node, to save a list (or any other type of object of course).

Let me know if that works for you.
Cheers!

( PS: I am not at office right now -no FC access- to create an example. Once I get back, I will post the example here for you! 🙂 )

Hey,

I just tried the EasySave<Object> node for List and for a Dictionary and I am receiving errors in both cases.

I am doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello,

Hmm, that is weird. I was sure that it would work with (T) as System.Object.
Can you please try opening up EasySaveNodes.cs, find the class called EasySave(T) at line #86 and add this attribute just above the class name [AppendListTypes].
Doing that will make the editor also show List types to be chose for (T) and as such allow you to add the exact node type required; in this case EasySave (List<string>).

Please let me know if that would work.
The rest of the graph looks correct by the way.

Hey,

I made the changes as you suggested.

I added the new node and I am still getting same errors 🙁

Can you please check on your end?

Thanks in advance

Hello,
If the error you are getting is still the one saying that “EasySave does not support this type”, maybe I think that we should contact the EasySave author, since all that the FC integration nodes do, is directly calling EasySave functions (no tricks in between).
The EasySave API [LINK], shows that it should work:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

// Create a List of int values and save it. List myList<int> = new List<int>(); myList.Add(1); myList.Add(2);    ES2.Save(myList, "myFile.txt?tag=myList");    // Load the List and re-assign it to our variable. myList = ES2.LoadList<int>("myFile.txt?tag=myList");

I will check this out in the weekend too.
