Exit 1. Yet $? and $LastExitCode not working

[rcmaehl]

Hi all,

I'm attempting to get the exit state of an AutoIt script after using

Exit 1

Exit 1 can literally be the only line in the script yet both $? and $LastExitCode are unable to detect that it exited with an error. I'm assuming this is because the script sets %ERRRORLEVEL% but I am unsure.

I've also tried the below suggestion but it also seems to not work

What am I doing wrong?

Compile e.g. (Scriptname = ReturnExitvalue.au3)

Global $g_sValue
$g_sValue = InputBox("Test", "Enter a number between 1 and 99 : ", "0")
MsgBox(4096, "", "%ERRORLEVEL% = "& $g_sValue)
Exit($g_sValue)

Run via .cmd :

@echo off
echo starts Exe and displays the Returnvalue (Exit)
cd %~dp0
ReturnExitvalue
echo.
echo %ERRORLEVEL%
pause

Okay so there's no way to do this through powershell, has to be console?

Not necessarily, but that's how I've always evaluated the return value so far. There has been no reason yet for me to do it otherwise .
