write a whole script to log file?

[supadodger]

is it possible to write a whole script to a log file?

so you can see exactly what its doing like trayicondebug but without going to every line and creating a filewrite

There is probably something close, but I've never looked at them

Search example scripts for autoit debugger / visual debugger

[Valuater]

#include <debug.au3>

It's built-in now

Hope that can help

im a little lost.

something like that...

ive had 1 too many bottles of wine but i know i am close...

[supadodger]

glasses of wine...

glasses not bottles LOL

You are going to have to write something from where you want to get info from.

If you dont want to use the standard UDF then write your own debug function, and have it report from each of your script functions.

Or use @error in each function.

EDIT:

For instance

Func _MyFunc()
;.... MyCode
ConsoleWrite("Exited from _MyFunc() with error: " & @error)
Return
EndFunc

In SciTE I use Tools > Trace: Add Trace Lines

It will output to the console however.

To remove: Tools > Trace: Remove ALL Trace Lines

Even better ^^^

Never even seen that, I miss so much in scite, because there is so much.

JohnOne,

Just put #AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Debug_Mode=Y at the top of the script - but be prepared for a very long scroll through the output pane!

Cheers M23 good to know.

this worked great because i changed all the consolewrites to filewrite

THANK YOU.

i should have stopped working on my script last night after i felt the buzz but i was so close to finishing and then at some point i couldnt figure out why it was stuck in an infinite loop only when compiled...

[JohnOne]

Its always a good idea to get some sleep when you are like that, I've stayed up all night trying to solve an error, then after some sleep, realizing how simle the problem actually is.

i need it to a log file not console though...

supadodger,

This will copy the contents of the SciTE output pane to a file - will that do?

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Debug_Mode=Y

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

OnAutoItExitRegister("_Copy_SciTE")

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

GUISetState()

While 1

    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch

WEnd

Func _Copy_SciTE()

    Local $hSciTE_Wnd = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:SciTEWindow]")
    $sText = ControlGetText($hSciTE_Wnd, "", "[CLASS:Scintilla; INSTANCE:2]")
    $sText = StringToBinary($sText ,2)
    $sText = BinaryToString($sText, 1)
    $sText = String($sText)

    $hFile = FileOpen(@ScriptDir & "\SciTE_Outout.txt", 2)
    FileWrite($hFile, $sText)
    FileClose($hFile)

EndFunc

i got it using the trace feature of scite and then search & replace all the consolewrites with filewrites but i will save this thread for future use...
