Question by Ochreous · Dec 28, 2012 at 01:40 AM · c#xmlcustomfilename

C# Creating a Custom XML Filename

Hi everyone, I'm trying to create a XML file with a name that comes from a declared string.For some reason when I create it the file doesn't have a name. Is the _FileName = nameText+".xml"; typed correctly?

 using UnityEngine;
 using System;
 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using System.Xml; 
 using System.Xml.Serialization; 
 using System.IO; 
 using System.Text;
  
 public class _GameSaveLoad : MonoBehaviour
 {
     // An example where the encoding can be found is at 
     // http://www.eggheadcafe.com/articles/system.xml.xmlserialization.asp 
     // We will just use the KISS method and cheat a little and use 
     // the examples from the web page since they are fully described 
  
     // This is our local private members
     public string nameText = "ExampleFile"; //edited
     Rect _Save, _Load, _SaveMSG, _LoadMSG;
     bool _ShouldSave, _ShouldLoad, _SwitchSave, _SwitchLoad;
     string _FileLocation, _FileName;
  
     Vector3 VPosition;
  
     List<SaveStructure.GameItems> _GameItems;
     public GameObject[] bodies;
     string _data = string.Empty;
  
     void Awake()
     {
         _GameItems = new List<SaveStructure.GameItems>();
     }
  
     // When the EGO is instansiated the Start will trigger 
     // so we setup our initial values for our local members 
     void Start()
     {
         // We setup our rectangles for our messages 
         _Save = new Rect(10, 80, 100, 20);
         _Load = new Rect(10, 100, 100, 20);
         _SaveMSG = new Rect(10, 120, 400, 40);
         _LoadMSG = new Rect(10, 140, 400, 40);
  
         // Where we want to save and load to and from 
         _FileLocation = Application.dataPath+"/";
         _FileName = nameText+".xml"; //edited
     }
  
     void Update() { }
  
     bool isSaving = false;
     bool isLoading = false;
     void OnGUI()

Answer by rizqiaws · Sep 26, 2014 at 08:07 PM

actually the _FileName is typed correctly. why don't you try to change public string nameText = "ExampleFile"; into string nameText = "ExampleFile" or private string nameText = "ExampleFile"? maybe it will be worked :D

I got error of this script. the message is: System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Array index is out of range. at _GameSaveLoad.LoadXML () [0x00096] in D:\Docs\Data Kuliah\ITB Batch 8\TA (BMS)\PALAGANserver\Assets\MultiOnline\Scripts_GameSaveLoad.cs:200 at _GameSaveLoad.OnGUI () [0x00042] in D:\Docs\Data Kuliah\ITB Batch 8\TA (BMS)\PALAGANserver\Assets\MultiOnline\Scripts_GameSaveLoad.cs:65 UnityEngine.Debug:LogError(Object) _GameSaveLoad:OnGUI() (at Assets/MultiOnline/Scripts/_GameSaveLoad.cs:72)

could you help me to solve the problem?
