Reading Variable Definition in a Document

Hello,

our goal is to read all the variable defintions in a document. The Problem ist that only 2 variables are displayed in the extension.

If I have selected 3 individual variable definitions to display them, I get an error code 2. In the loop as shown in the sample below it display just 2 rows.

Can anyone help me to get all variable definitions in a exportable format!? It's very important for me and I am not find any solution.

Thanks in advance!

Best Rgds

Martin

Thats the sample code:

Qva.AddExtension('Konsolidierung', function(){


var obj = this.Element;

      var doc = Qv.GetCurrentDocument();

      var varsRetrieved = false;

      doc.SetOnUpdateComplete(function(){

           if(!varsRetrieved){

                Qv.GetDocument("").GetAllVariables(function(variables){

                     for(var i = 0; i < variables.length; i++){

   
            var a = variables.name + " = " + variables.value;        
            obj.innerHTML=a;
     
   //var Konsolidierung = this.GetVariable();

   //obj.getElementById("ptest").innerHTML = variables.name + " = " + variables.value;
   //this.Element.appendChild(p);

    //alert(variables.name + " = " + variables.value);

                    

                }});

                varsRetrieved = true;
  


           }

      });

  }, false);

Hi Martin,

this is what works for us:

---

(function() {

    Qv.AddExtension('ReadVariables', function() {

        console.log('ReadVariables eXtension loaded');

        var height = this.GetHeight();

        var width = this.GetWidth();

        var container = $('<div />').css({

            height: height,

            width: width,

            overflow: "auto"

            }).appendTo($(this.Element).empty());

        Qv.GetCurrentDocument().GetAllVariables(function(vars) {

            $.each(vars, function(index, varObj) {

                container.append($('<div>' + varObj.name + ' = ' + varObj.value + '</div>'));

            });

        });

    });   

})();

---

It's worth to mention that the callback function of GetAllVariables( ) runs asynchronous which gives a problem if you assign the values inside to an outer scope variable.
