Calling a function using two parameters properly

[Ultracasual 0]

Hello, I've been pondering this for a little bit and I sense there's something wrong, obviously. The error is reading it's being called by only 1 arg however there are two listed.

Func getFiles($location, $file)
  GUICtrlSetData($Progress, $file)
  GUICtrlSetBkColor($Progress, 0xC67171)
  InetGet($URL & $location & $file, $mcd & $location & $file, 0, 0)
  GUICtrlSetBkColor($Progress, 0xFFFBF0)
EndFunc

Is being called by this:

For $i = 1 To UBound($download) - 1
  getFiles($dir[2], $download[$i]) ;<== line 188
Next

Error returned:

ERROR: getFiles() called by a previous line with 1 arg(s). Min = 2. First previous line calling this Func is 188. Func getFiles($location, $file)

This cycles through each one using the 'getFiles' function using two args. My thoughts: improper function syntax

The other variables in that function are they in Global scope? Also are you sure that is the only line this function is being called?

Either post the code you have or create a small reproducer, so we can run the code.

The error suggests that the function is called somewhere else in your code with only one arg

line 188 to be precise.

line 188 to be precise.

I think there is more than meets the eye.

! Thanks for the support, as an example here is what I'm trying to do:

#include <Array.au3>
Local $dir[3] = ['cats','dogs','salamanders']
Local $array[4] = ['1','2','3','4']
Local $string = "these[|]are[|]funky[|]beans"
Local $num
Dim $download[1]

For $i = 0 To UBound($array) - 1
  _ArrayAdd($download, $array[$i])
Next
$num = 1
For $i = 1 To UBound($download) - 1 ;<== Example 1
  test($dir[2], $download[$i])
Next
$num = 2
For $i = 0 To UBound($array) - 1 ;<== Example 2
  test('directory', $array[$i])
Next
$num = 3
$split = StringSplit($string, "[|]", 1)
For $i = 1 To UBound($split) - 1 ;<== Example 3
  test($split[$i], $dir[1])
Next
Func test($arg1, $arg2) ;<== function
  MsgBox(0,'EXAMPLE  ' & $num, $arg1 & ' ' & $arg2)
EndFunc

At what point does the error occur in that code?

At what point does the error occur in that code?

It doesn't and I just ran the...proper...document and the main one works too. So sorry.. I'm re-writing and had multiple windows open, letting the air of fail in. Thanks for the help guys

Ultracasual,

That code doesn't produce an error as you explained in your original post. When I said provide a reproducer, I meant either the code you're using or if you don't want to share then something that produces the error above. It's clear to me that the function is being called elsewhere in your script and incorrectly too.

Edit: I just saw your update. Glad you got it working.

It happens a lot, you post a question about something, and you fix it while farting about with script.
