Greetings, Maybe someone out there can lend me an eye? I've been
stumped, banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why my
script doesn't work. I've tried every thing I could think of, even
unecessarily complicated mumbo-jumbo. Let me show you a snippet and then
I'll explain what's happening.
for verse in self.activeSong['verses']:
verseNum = self.activeSong['verses'].index(verse)
activeSong = self.activeSong .copy()
firstLine = split(verse, '\n')[0]
button = Button(self.son gWin, text=verse, command=(lambda :
self.showVerse( verseNum)) )
button.config(b g='grey')
button.pack(exp and=YES, fill=BOTH, side=TOP)
self.verseButto ns.append(butto n)
This is as simple app for displaying the words of a song with an
overhead projector. When you click on a song the program reads it and
creates a button for each verse. When you click the button it is
supposed to display that verse. As you can see above I am trying to call
the showVerse method and pass it the verseNum.
The problem I am having is that every button gets assigned the verseNum
for the last verse that gets processed. That is to say, if a sone has 4
verses every button shows verse for, a 6 verse song loads verse 6 for
every button, etc. I think that the value is getting passed by
reference, so it gets updated with every iteration. I have seriously
tried every thing I can think of to fix this.
If any one has any thoughts I would really appreciate it.
Thanks very much!

Hi,
button = Button(self.son gWin, text=verse, command=(lambda num=verseNum:
self.showVerse( num)) )
should do the trick. The reason is basically that your version kept a
reference to verseNum - and when executed, the value verseNum points to is
the lasts one stored.
Rebinding the argument to a parameter in the lambda will keep the right
value for each iteration.

I tried it but I got a syntax error. The interpreter didn't like the
equals sign in the lambda. I am using python 2.3.4. Is there another way
of writing that?
thanks

Strange. This script works and shows the desired behaviour - python is also
2.3.4:
def foo(x):
print x
fs = [lambda: foo(i) for i in xrange(5)]
for f in fs:
f()
fs = [lambda x=i: foo(x) for i in xrange(5)]
for f in fs:
f()

You're right! It was my fault. I left the colon after the lambda by
mistake. e.g. lambda: num=verseNum:.. .
Thanks very much for the help it works great now! I wish I would have
asked somebody sooner :)

On my subform I have a field in the footer that totals the value of a
field. On the main form I have referenced this field. I'm using this
field in a calculation on my main form. The problem occurs when there
are no records in the subform. The field on the main form that
references the subform total field returns #Error. How can I make
this field show the total when there are records and 0 when there are
no records???
Thank you,...

Hello, all.
I've created a C# dll that contains, among other things, two functions
dealing with byte arrays. The first is a function that returns a byte
array, and the other is intended to receive a byte array as one of its
parameters. The project is marked for COM interop, and that all
proceeds normally.
When I reference the type library in the VB6 project, and write the
code to call the function that returns the byte array, it works

hi,
I am having a little problem passing in reference of my calling class (in my
..exe)into a DLL. Both programs are C# and what I am trying to do is pass a
reference to my one class into a DLL function. When I try and compile the DLL
I get "The type or namespace name "MyForm" could not be found.
I think I have to reference the class but since the DLL needs to be built
before the EXE it looks like I have a chicken and egg type problem....

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
