HUGE bug on "Get section names" (Configuration file vi)

I have already had a similar issue where there was a weird hidden character at the beginning of my file (not even shown by notepad++), before the first bracket so labview could not detect the first bracket at the beginning of a line. and everthing was messed up like you describe.

Sounds similar to this: Config file "byte order mark"

I HAVE 0 RESPECT FOR THOSE LIKE YOU.

Looking at Ironman_s post history he seems to be a guy going easily off. I get the impression he really is forced to use LabVIEW even though he doesn't like it…

But then his wording reminds you on those presidential campaigns - and even I (living in good old Europe) get an impression of what's going on in the States! 😄

Ok, good morning guys

Why do you post on this forum? You make noise.

I know why: you just post in order to increment your post count, don't you? maybe you are paid by the number of daily posts, with bonus at 5k, 10k, etc...

1) NO ONE VERIFIED WHAT I STATE.

SHAME ON YOU.

I clearly mentioned the LV version, and what the BUG is, and what the VI is.

You just replied bs.

Thank you! lol

2) MY INI IS FORMATTED CORRECTLY. it is NOT stated ANYWHERE that and INI MUST have a first section comment.

for example:

[Hi there]

[retarded american software programmer]

what is the EXPECTED output of this INI file?

CORRECT: ["Hi there","retarded american software programmer"]

ACTUAL: ["retarded american software programmer"]

another perfect valid example of INI file:

[mono section]

CORRECT: ["mono section"]

ACTUAL: []  (empty array!!!!!!!!! LOOOOOL)

this is because the monkey coder inside NI decided that "the first section is a comment" (it's written on your source code)

ANYWAY, I HAVE FIXED THE CODE by myself.

THIS IS THE QUALITY OF THIS COMMUNITY

THIS IS THE QUALITY OF NATIONAL INSTRUMENT CODER AND SOFTWARE LIBRARIES. this is the second time that NI shipped a BUGGED vi in LV2015 vs 2014 (the other case is the open pdf with browser url)

CONGRATS MAN!

PRINT MORE DOLLARS! 2000->2008-2016 is coming! tic toc tic toc

Hi  Ironman,

you have been ask to provide your INI file (or a qualified example file) - several times.

And you should provide a VI that demonstrates the problem.

All we get from you is  rude behaviour…

When nobody else encounters this problem it is a valid assumption to say the problem is with your INI file!

Since you did not post your ini file or the VI, no one could verify the bug. Shame on you for such an amateur posting. You still have not attached an actual ini file or VI. Nor have you explained what you mean by 2015 sp1 which is not released. Shame on you again. To be taken seriously, you need to be a little more professional.
