Runs with Scite (beta run) but not direct

Hello,

I've a Script which runs fine if I edit it in SciTE and run it via "Beta run". If I run it direct I get a system error msg (find.exe product an error and will be closed ...).

$vFilename = "Boot.ini"
$vFileDir = "C:\"
$xGet = Run(@ComSpec & " /c find /c ""/Outlines"" """&$vFileName &"""", $vFileDir, @SW_HIDE, 2 + 4)
ProcessWaitClose("find.exe",10)
MsgBox(0,"Out",StdOutRead($xget))

I tried also the form given in the help file. But with the same result. A compareable command with another command-line tool works fine.

Perhaps someone can test/correct it?

MfG. Reinhard

PS: I think Valik will be enjoyed that I didn't put it under "Bug Reports". At least that I've learned ;-).

Beta is not associated in the registry with Au3 files by default. This is why Scite has a two way setup for public release and beta operation so you can operate with beta scripts.

The public release will not like your use of Run() or StdOutRead as it is not native to it.

You are using functions or parameters that were never released with AutoIt v3.1.1 final.

The registry points to the 3.1.1 final directory. So you either use Scite to run your beta scripts, or you could do an approach like overwrite the 3.1.1 directory with a beta version, that would give you external beta operation then. Another idea is to use my shell extension program with has beta run and compile here. Only ideas that I have at present.

Mmmh ...

.... and what means that to me?

Right mouse click on a file.au3 file and then selecting "Run Script" will run the latest Production version of AutoIt3 and that version of AutoIT does not support this parameter in the Run command.

I changed my file-association to "Run with Beta" (....85), "Run Script". That's not the problem and the behaviour in beta and the latest official release is the same.

" ... and that version of AutoIT does not support this parameter in the Run command".

The parameter I took from the beta-helpfile. Also if I took only StdOutRead (run(................,2) there is no difference. Also my other command only using another exe works fine.

$xGet = Run(@ComSpec & " /c " &$pdfAsm &" -b" &$vFileDirShort _
                &" -M" &stringReplace($vFileName," ","?") &" -gN", @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, 2) ProcessWaitClose ( "mbtPdfAsm.exe", 10)
    $line = StdoutRead($xGet)

I know I can do it with piping it into a file ( > out.tmp). But I think it will be slower.

Thank you both, Reinhard

I would try putting a removing the last 2 paramters from the Run function (don't hide the window and don't capture STDOUT or STDERR) and place a Sleep(5000) function after the Run function, then watch the console window and see what it actually happening with your call to FIND.

Yes yes yes, there it was. Youth must go, ah yes. But youth is only being in a way like it might be an animal. No, it is not just being an animal so much as being like one of these malenky toys you viddy being sold in the streets, like little chellovecks made out of tin and with a spring inside and then a winding handle on the outside and you wind it up grrr grrr grrr and off it itties, like walking, O my brothers. But it itties in a straight line and bangs straight into things bang bang and it cannot help what it is doing. Being young is like being like one of these malenky machines.

Thanks for the hint, Dave. I tested it. Without the optional parameters it works fine. Also if I use CMD switch /k with @SW_Minimize it works fine. I tested also to filter the output of finde.exe with more.exe only to involve another tool into the process. But when I use STDOUT switch (,2) it runs only via SciTE - not direct - independent from the lines after the run command.

It's just curios, also the differences between SciTE and direct execution. But I think sometimes it happens and I will look for an other solution.

Best regards, Reinhard
