stdVBA VS ECPTextStream

I do RPA from VBA personally using IAccessiblity. See stdAcc (https://github.com/sancarn/stdVBA/blob/master/src/stdAcc.cls) and an example (https://github.com/sancarn/stdVBA-examples/tree/main/Example...)

You could have just treated everything as variant correct? That's what we do here: https://github.com/sancarn/stdVBA/blob/master/src/stdLambda....

The responses I got was a mix. Some businesses didn't take me seriously because the main language I used was VBA. Some businesses claimed I was too eager and I "didn't have a life". No one seemed to care about the achievements I had made in the languages, like building a DSL in VBA, or this electron app. I did eventually get a job in another engineering firm though, where I spend 90% of my time to this day programming.

Really depends what you actually want to do and how neat (or fast) you want your code to be too... I typically use stdEnumerator and stdLambda from stdVBA.

Sometimes, though more of a library / tool developer here. See stdVBA or stdVBA-examples

That said it is effort. After building stdLambda which brings lambda syntax to VBA, I can tell you that error handling in this class is still trash. It's just a lot of effort to write good error messages, and handle all errors correctly. Still definitely an item on the TODO list, but will it ever be a priority? idk

Otherwise this library poses as an example of how to use stdVBA libraries. Libraries used in this project: stdEnumerator, stdArray, stdCallback, stdCOM, stdICallable, stdLambda, stdRegex.

If you want a solution though see stdSettings. There are both system and user settings. Users are bound by their domain, so should work across organisations :)

Use stdVBA's stdAcc:

Explaining code in such a way that it codes the correct thing is pretty awful though... Let's try to do that for stdTimer.

The table below shows the overall performance for the read operations, you can download the test files from here. The test machine is running Win 10 Pro 64-bit, Intel® Core™ i7-4500U CPU N2600 @1.80 GHz - 2.40 GHz, 8 GB RAM.

This is a perfect use case for ECPTextStream. Create a loop for read the source text file and write the result file. Inside the file loop, manage to handle the last chunk of information and remove the last char until a line break is found.

Maybe the ECPTextStream class module can help you. This library is faster than the scripting method when dealing with text files and can manage files up to 2GB without any problem. See the benchmarks here.

Parse CSV/TSV through streams with the ECPTextStream class module.

New versión of the VBA-CSV Interface class. This will integrate the ECPTextStream class module in order to reduce memory overloads when retrieving few records from a CSV file.
