rdr Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) Hello all, Is there a way to catch the 'Unknown function name' AutoIt error? I am getting it in a case that is irrelevant to the message and although I have an error object that triggers my error handling method when com errors occur, I am just getting a pop up message when this error happens. Is there a way to handle it differently? Thank you, rdr //edit: I am using the latest Beta version Edited September 20, 2013 by rdr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted September 20, 2013 Moderators Share Posted September 20, 2013 rdr,The obvious solution is to syntax check your code to make sure you do not have any missing includes - the ususal reason for such errors. If you use the full SciTE4AutoIt3 package you can use Au3Check to do this - and if you run the script from within the editor it happens automatically.

rdr Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 Thank you for the reply. The thing is that I get the error in a very specific case: when a process of the software I am manipulating through AutoIt is left running. In the case were a fresh start of the software is made, the error does not occur. So, could it still be a missing include? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted September 20, 2013 Moderators Share Posted September 20, 2013 rdr,Why would another app running cause an "unknown function" error in an AutoIt script? Can you post the section of code that calls this "unknown function"?

rdr Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) Heh, I can understand your puzzle, but it looks like it just happens. I am using LibreOffice and I am just calling a method on its API. This is the part of the code: ... 1. $oReturn = $oDesktop.loadComponentFromURL($sURL, "_default", 0, $aoProperties) 2. If Not IsObj($oReturn) Then 3. _ErrorNotify("Error", $sFuncName, "", "$_GeneralError") 4. Return SetError($_OOoCalcStatus_GeneralError, 0, 0) 5. Else 6. Return SetSuccess($_OOoCalcStatus_Success) 7. EndIf The code never reaches line 2 when a process of LibreOffice is left running. In the other case, it just runs fine. Weird, I know.

Moderators Melba23 Posted September 20, 2013 Moderators Share Posted September 20, 2013 rdr,I have never used the OpenOffice UDF so I have no idea what is happening, sorry. But as you know that the problem is caused by a particular LibreOffice process, can you not check in your script if the process is active and if necessary kill and/or restart it before continuing?
