Au3 Stripper Issues

[swoop]

$iStart = _ArraySearch($aArray, $vValue, $iStart, $iEnd, $iCase, $iCompare, 1, $iSubItem, $bRow)
If @error Then Return SetError(@error, 0, -1)
Local $iIndex = 0, $avResult[UBound($aArray,($bRow ? $UBOUND_COLUMNS : $UBOUND_ROWS))]
Do
$avResult[$iIndex] = $iStart
$iIndex += 1
$iStart = _ArraySearch($aArray, $vValue, $iStart + 1, $iEnd, $iCase, $iCompare, 1, $iSubItem, $bRow)
Until @error

I get the error when I compile my code,  warning: $UBOUND_ROWS: possibly used before declaration.
Local $iIndex = 0, $avResult[UBound($aArray,($bRow ? $UBOUND_COLUMNS : $UBOUND_ROWS)

error: $UBOUND_ROWS: undeclared global variable.
Local $iIndex = 0, $avResult[UBound($aArray,($bRow ? $UBOUND_COLUMNS : $UBOUND_ROWS)

The above referenced code snippet is where the Stripped Au3 code fails.

But without using the directive: #AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Au3Stripper=y  the code runs fine and is able to compile.

What's the best way to debug or diagnose this issue?

Declare $UBOUND_ROWS before you try to use it?

[swoop]

I think I found where in the code this happens:

_run_once ("Login.exe")

Func _run_once ($process_name)

    Local $processArray 

    $process_list = ProcessList()
    
    $processArray = _ArrayFindAll($process_list, $process_name)
    $process_sum = UBound($processArray)

    For $i = $process_sum to 2 Step -1
        ProcessClose($process_name)
    Next
EndFunc

But I am unsure why using the Stripper should cause an error, but it runs fine without the Stripper.

So, when I compile the following with the Stripper turned on, I get the error. However, remove the Stripper directives and the code compiles fine.

#RequireAdmin
#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_requestedExecutionLevel=asInvoker
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Au3Stripper=y
#Au3Stripper_Parameters=/tl /debug /sf /sv /rsln
#EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****

#include <Array.au3>

_run_once ("Login.exe")

Func _run_once ($process_name)

    Local $processArray

    $process_list = ProcessList()

    $processArray = _ArrayFindAll($process_list, $process_name)
    $process_sum = UBound($processArray)

    For $i = $process_sum to 2 Step -1
        ProcessClose($process_name)
    Next
EndFunc

The Ubound error is created when the AutoIt script is compiled while stripped. In the stripped code, this is where it fails:

Local $iIndex = 0, $avResult[UBound($aArray,($bRow ? $UBOUND_COLUMNS : $UBOUND_ROWS))]

It is generated by the stripper, not the original code in the script. By default the UBound uses $UBOUND_ROWS. I tried to specifically declare it to use $UBOUND_ROWS, but I get the same compile error after compiling it with the stripper:

$process_sum = UBound($processArray,1)

I can't test at the moment, but could you try the current Beta version of au3stripper to see if the issue persists?

Edit: just tested with AU3Check v3.3.15.1 and don;t get any errors on the stripped script with au3check or when ran, so give it a try and in case you still have issues, provide an example I can run giving me an error.

Hello Jos,

I downloaded the latest Beta from https://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/downloads/ and still get the error. But the version is 3.3.15.0 for AutoIt Beta. Where do I get 3.3.15.1?

When I install the AutoIt 3.3.15.0 Beta, and go to the AutoIt program folder, the AU3Check properties says: 3.3.14.2 Date Modified on 9/18/2015.

There is real relation to the AutoIt3 version. As stated, post something I can test with as I tried the script you posted but that doesn't trigger ant error for me on the stripped sourcecode.

That's very strange. The code posted fails for me on compile using the Beta. With the same error.

I'll try to find another computer to install AutoIt Beta on to try. Not sure if that would make a difference.

Show us the line where  $UBOUND_ROWS  is declared

[BlackLumiere]

I had the same issue. In my case I writed like:

Local $iMax = UBound($aWindows, $UBOUND_COLUMNS) and I had this error ==> warning: $UBOUND_COLUMNS: possibly used before declaration.

Then I just declare it like a Constant, dunno why but it worked and tthe compiler did nnot show the error anymore. Like these:

 Local Const $iRows = UBound($aArray2D, $UBOUND_ROWS)

[Jos]

I can only help when sufficient information is provided! 
This means a testscript that demonstrates the issue.
All these loose comments do not mean anything to me and I am terrible at guessing.

I had the same issue. In my case I wrote in a function :

     Local $iRows = UBound($aWindows, $UBOUND_COLUMNS)     ;and I had this error ==> warning: $UBOUND_COLUMNS: possibly used before declaration.

 

Then I just declare the variaable as a Constant, dunno why but it worked, and the compiler did not show error anymore. Like these:

     Local Const $iRows = UBound($aWindows, $UBOUND_ROWS)

 

 

Regards!
