Hi,
I'm sharing values by using the built-il preferences system. Once a value is
set, you can use it from another actionbar button, another macro, or from a
plugin, or javascript. It will also be saved when you quit and restart
ImageJ.
In a macro, use
call("ij.Prefs.set", "yourPrefix.x",x); to share the value of variable x,
and
call("ij.Prefs.get", "yourPrefix.x",defaultValue); to retrieve it.
From a plugin, see Ulf Dittmer's example at
http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/plugins/preference-demo.htmlFrom javascript : Prefs.set("yourPrefix.x","test"); print
(Prefs.get("yourPrefix.x",""));
(there are too many parameters to look elegant passing as concatenated
> string).
The List.* functions will elegantly keep many parameters, and concatenate
them for you with string=List.getList(); You can then save this string using
the Preferences system.
Jerome.
