Can't compare dates

[Valnurat 1]

I'm trying to find the months between 2 dates. 1 date from a folder and the current date.

If I do exampel 1 it works

Local $iDateCalc = _DateDiff('M', "2015/10/23 00:00:00", _NowCalc())
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Number of: " & $iDateCalc)

but exampel 2 do not.

Local $aFileDate = FileGetTime($aUsersTarget[$i][2] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][3] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][4] & "\" & $sFileName)
Local $iDateCalc = _DateDiff('M', $aFileDate[0] & "/" &  $aFileDate[1] & "/" & $aFileDate[2] & " 00:00:00", _NowCalc())
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", $iDateCalc)

 

 Can someone help me?

FileGetTime() returns an Array by default. Look at the helpfile for defining the return of a string with the optional second parameter.

Tried that too.

Local $sFileDate = _ConvertTimeFormat(FileGetTime($aUsersTarget[$i][2] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][3] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][4] & "\" & $sFileName,0,1))
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", $sFileDate)
Local $iDateCalc = _DateDiff('M', $sFileDate, _NowCalc())
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", $iDateCalc)


Func _ConvertTimeFormat ( $_FileTime ) ; convert 20100716213616 string time format to this time format YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS
    Return StringMid ( $_FileTime, 1 , 4 ) & '/' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 5 , 2 ) & '/' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 7 , 2 ) & _
    ' ' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 9 , 2 ) & ':' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 11 , 2 ) & ':' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 13 , 2 )
EndFunc ;==> _ConvertTimeFormat ( )

Same result.

Result = 0

Are you sure your filepath is correct? Because this:

; *** Start added by AutoIt3Wrapper ***
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
; *** End added by AutoIt3Wrapper ***
#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Add_Constants=n
#EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
#include <Date.au3>

$sFileDate=_ConvertTimeFormat(FileGetTime(@AutoItExe,1,1))
ConsoleWrite($sFileDate&@CRLF)
Local $iDateCalc = _DateDiff('M', $sFileDate, _NowCalc())
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", $iDateCalc)



Func _ConvertTimeFormat ( $_FileTime ) ; convert 20100716213616 string time format to this time format YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS
    Return StringMid ( $_FileTime, 1 , 4 ) & '/' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 5 , 2 ) & '/' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 7 , 2 ) & _
    ' ' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 9 , 2 ) & ':' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 11 , 2 ) & ':' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 13 , 2 )
EndFunc ;==> _ConvertTimeFormat ( )

works for me.

When I do this:

MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "FileGetTime", FileGetTime($aUsersTarget[$i][2] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][3] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][4] & "\" & $sFileName,0,1))

I get the result in the attachment.

when you run my small example in Post #4 what's the output in console, and what's show in the MsgBox?

As i can't test your small script snipet (unpopulatet array) please make a small reproducer in which the error occurs.

When I run your small example I get 4 in the msgbox, but nothing in the console.

This is what I try:

For $i = 0 To UBound($aUsersTarget) - 1
    $aComputerOwner = _AD_GetObjectsInOU("OU=computers," & $sSiteOU & ",OU=company,DC=AD,DC=company,DC=ORG","(&(objectclass=computer)(managedby=" & $aUsersTarget[$i][0] & "))",Default,"cn")
    if $aComputerOwner <> 0 Then
        Local $hSearch = FileFindFirstFile($aUsersTarget[$i][2] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][3] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][4] & "\" & "*.")
        If $hSearch = -1 Then
;           MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Error: No files/directories matched the search pattern.")
        EndIf
        Local $sFileName = ""
        While 1
            $sFileName = FileFindNextFile($hSearch)
            ; If there is no more file matching the search.
            If @error Then ExitLoop
            if UBound(_ArrayFindAll($aComputerOwner,$sFileName)) = 0 Then
                if StringInStr($sFileName,StringUpper(stringRight($sSiteOU,2) & StringMid($sSiteOU,StringInStr($sSiteOU,",")-2,2)&"LT")) <> 0 Or StringInStr($sFileName,StringUpper(stringRight($sSiteOU,2) & StringMid($sSiteOU,StringInStr($sSiteOU,",")-2,2)&"DT")) <> 0 Then
                    Local $sFileDate = _ConvertTimeFormat(FileGetTime($aUsersTarget[$i][2] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][3] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][4] & "\" & $sFileName,0,1))
                    Local $iDateCalc = _DateDiff('M', $sFileDate, _NowCalc())
                    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", $iDateCalc) ; <--- Not the result I expected
                EndIf
            EndIf
        WEnd
        ; Close the search handle.
        FileClose($hSearch)
    EndIf
Next

 

The attachment is for showing the data before and after use of _ConvertTimeFormat and current date and time.

MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", FileGetTime($aUsersTarget[$i][2] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][3] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][4] & "\" & $sFileName,0,1)&@CRLF&$sFileDate&@CRLF&_NowCalc())

When i change my testscript to

; *** Start added by AutoIt3Wrapper ***
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
; *** End added by AutoIt3Wrapper ***
#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Add_Constants=n
#EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
#include <Date.au3>

$sFileDate='20151127092237'
;$sFileDate=FileGetTime($aUsersTarget[$i][2] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][3] & "\" & $aUsersTarget[$i][4] & "\" & $sFileName,0,1)
;$sFileDate=FileGetTime(@AutoItExe,1,1)
$sFileDate=_ConvertTimeFormat($sFileDate)
ConsoleWrite($sFileDate&@CRLF)
Local $iDateCalc = _DateDiff('M', $sFileDate, _NowCalc())
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "_DateDiff", $iDateCalc)



Func _ConvertTimeFormat ( $_FileTime ) ; convert 20100716213616 string time format to this time format YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS
    Return StringMid ( $_FileTime, 1 , 4 ) & '/' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 5 , 2 ) & '/' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 7 , 2 ) & _
    ' ' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 9 , 2 ) & ':' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 11 , 2 ) & ':' & StringMid ( $_FileTime, 13 , 2 )
EndFunc ;==> _ConvertTimeFormat ( )

the MsgBox show 1 and the console:

...
--> Press Ctrl+Alt+Break to Restart or Ctrl+Break to Stop
2015/11/27 09:22:37
+>21:41:08 AutoIt3.exe ended.rc:0
...

Again: build a runable reproducer script whitout AD which produce the error.

For some reason I got it to work.

I tried split every command up 1 by 1 and now it works, I have absolute no idea why it is working now.

But thank you for the help anyway.
