IniWriteSection "Invalid Data Type"

[JonBMN]

My first question before I start posting code and whatnot, is on the IniWriteSection the Failure returns 0 and sets @error to 1 for an invalid data type. Can anyone help me figure out what this certain invalid data type is, because the helpfile does not explain this is huge detail (I'm passing a 2d array with key value pairs).

JonBMN,

The Help file defines the required data pretty clearly as:

 

"The data to write. The data can either be a string or an array. If the data is a string, then each key=value pair must be delimited by @LF. If the data is an array, the array must be 2-dimensional and the second dimension must be 2 elements."

So it is either:

"key1=value1" & @LF & "key2=value2" & @LF & "key3=value3"

or an array

[[key1, value1], [key2, value2], [key3, value3]]

If what are you using as data does not match one of those two requirements, it is invalid. What are you trying to use?

Edit: I have just seen your edit - how do you construct this 2D array?

I figured it out, I had been trying to write values with a 2d array like so:

$exampleArray[10][2]

 

Come to find out I had been trying to use a 2d array with:

#exampleArray[10][10]

 

That was what was creating the invalid data type error.
