Loads the definitions of the UI modules listed in a text file.<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
ModulesLoadFromListFile(listFilePath, moduleType, allowLooseFiles)<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Arguments ==<br />
;listFilePath : <code>wstring</code> – Path of the list file. It must be a wide string (<code>L"..."</code>).<br />
;moduleType : <code>number</code> – A <code>SystemData.UiModuleType</code> value from 1 to 5. Every listed module is given this type.<br />
;allowLooseFiles : <code>boolean</code> – <code>false</code>: the list file must be inside the game archives. <code>true</code>: the client first looks for it on disk and then in the archives.<br />
<br />
== Returns ==<br />
Nothing.<br />
<br />
== Details ==<br />
* The stock list file <code>interface/default/EADefaultMods.txt</code> contains one <code>.mod</code> path per line, for example <code>interface/default\EASystem_DialogManager\EASystem_DialogManager.mod</code>.<br />
* The modules are only registered with the client. Call [[API:ModulesInitializeAllEnabled|ModulesInitializeAllEnabled]] afterwards to run them.<br />
* <code>allowLooseFiles</code> is also passed on to the loader. The stock UI passes <code>IsInternalBuild()</code>, which is always <code>false</code>.<br />
* <code>allowLooseFiles</code> must be a real boolean, and <code>listFilePath</code> a wide string, or an ''Invalid Parameters'' error is raised.<br />
<br />
== Errors ==<br />
These are written to the UI log; the call returns normally.<br />
* <code>Error in function call 'ModulesLoadFromListFile': file %ls does not exist.</code><br />
* <code>Error in function call 'ModulesLoadFromListFile': Module Type %d is invalid.</code><br />
<br />
== Example ==<br />
From <code>interfacecore/interfacecore.lua</code>:<br />
<pre><br />
ModulesLoadFromListFile( SystemData.Directories.DefaultInterface..L"/EADefaultMods.txt", SystemData.UiModuleType.DEFAULT_INGAME, IsInternalBuild() )<br />
ModulesLoadFromListFile( L"interface/MythicApprovedAddOns/MythicApprovedMods.txt", SystemData.UiModuleType.MYTHIC_APPROVED_ADDON, IsInternalBuild() )<br />
