how to log runtime error?

[ShadoWarrior]

I've built a script that runs on the background of my computer.... and it needs to run for hours so i can't track it manually all the time

and their are always bug to be fixed...

i want to write a script that monitor the first one and log it's runtime errors with details.

thought of using "StderrRead" but i don't quite understand how to use it...

#include <Constants.au3>

Global $FileName = IniRead("Setting.ini", "Monitors", "Machine", "NotFound") & "/ErrorStdOut" ; "first" auto-it script already compiled  
Global $Location = IniRead("Setting.ini", "Monitors", "Location", "NotFound")

Local $foo = Run($FileName ,$Location,@SW_HIDE,$STDERR_CHILD)
Local $line

While 1
    $line = StderrRead($foo)
    If @error Then
         MsgBox(0, "STDERR read:", $line)
         ExitLoop
    EndIf
    Sleep(1000)
Wend

MsgBox(0, "Debug", "Exiting...")

tried to use this simple script but $line just return blank after a runtime error...

That will only work if you're writing to the STDOut in the first place, StdinWrite().

What kind of errors are we talking about here? Are you dealing with COM, Arrays with incorrect subscript dimensions? What?

Perhaps you could do something crude such as adding throughout your code

If @error then _errorlog(@error)
ExitLoop

And having a function

#include <file.au3>

Func _errorlog($error)
    _FileWriteLog(@ScriptDir, $error, -1)
        ;Some other code
EndFunc

most of the error i get are related to arrays.

what i need is to see where the error occurred in the original script so i can fix it...

but the script work in a compiled form, so any info regarding the source of the problem dissipates into a general error box...something like error in line -1.

I'm looking for a way to log all the errors that makes the script stop.

[ code='text' ] ( Popup )

If @error then _errorlog(@error) ExitLoop

And having a function

[ code='text' ] ( Popup )

#include <file.au3> Func _errorlog($error) _FileWriteLog(@ScriptDir, $error, -1) ;Some other code EndFunc

it's a very good idea JohnOne but the script is very very long and bugs can have many forms and be anywhere...

i just what to be able to see the error info as i would if the script wasn't compiled
