How to create Menu with values

[hoangninyb]

i have

A = 1

B = 4

C = 5

D = 3

E = 6

.......

 

i have a code:

----

gg.clearResults()

gg.searchNumber("1000" , gg.TYPE_DWORD)

p = gg.getResultCount()               

q = gg.getResults(p)                   

for i = 1,p do

            l = {}

   l = {}

      l.address = q.address + 4

   l.flags = 4           

gg.getValues(l)

gg.addListItems(l)

gg.loadResults(gg.getListItems(l))

end

------

and in the list there will be values n

I want to create a menu with those values, example: in list have 1,4,5,3,6 then the menu will have 4 lines A,B,C,D,E(picture 1) or in list have 1,3,6 then the menu will have 3 lines A,D,E (picture 2)

Can you help me with a model?

plase help me!

Can you give me a clear example? I just learned about lua script so my knowledge is very limited!

First of all, it seems that using saved list and loading results is not required in your case, so the code can be rewritten to: 

gg.clearResults()
gg.searchNumber("1000", gg.TYPE_DWORD)
local count = gg.getResultsCount()               
local results = gg.getResults(count)                   
for i, v in ipairs(results) do
  v.address = v.address + 4
end
local values = gg.getValues(results) -- table with target values

Then, the menu that you described can be created from data in "values" table with the following code: 

local mapping = {
  [1] = "A",
  [4] = "B",
  [5] = "C",
  [3] = "D",
  [6] = "E"
}

local menuItems = {}
for i, v in ipairs(values) do
  local item = mapping[v.value]
  if item ~= nil then -- ignoring values that are absent in "mapping" table
    table.insert(menuItems, item)
  end
end

gg.choice(menuItems)

Hey bro, how when i press A it will take me to function A() or if there is B it will take me to function B()

As you can notice, "ipairs" iterator function is used on "values" table obtained from the call to "getValues" function that has "results" table as it's argument that in turn is obtained from the call to "getResults" function that returns a table with all it's elements being traversable with "ipairs" function. So usage of "ipairs" function in the code from my post is correct and replacing it with "pairs" won't make any difference in this case.

For example, with the following adaptation of the code:

local function A()
  print("A")
end

local function B()
  print("B")
end

local function C()
  print("C")
end

local function D()
  print("D")
end

local function E()
  print("E")
end

local mapping = {
  [1] = {name = "A", func = A},
  [4] = {name = "B", func = B},
  [5] = {name = "C", func = C},
  [3] = {name = "D", func = D},
  [6] = {name = "E", func = E}
}

local menuNames = {}
local menuFunctions = {}
for i, v in ipairs(values) do
  local item = mapping[v.value]
  if item ~= nil then -- ignoring values that are absent in "mapping" table
    table.insert(menuNames, item.name)
    table.insert(menuFunctions, item.func)
  end
end

local choice = gg.choice(menuNames)
if choice ~= nil then
  menuFunctions[choice]()
end

Let me know whether it works as you expect it to.

ipairs dont work if the table is holed, use pairs instead
