Returning A Dos Command Error Code.

[Bokkie]

I have .Net console application which exits with either 0 (success) or 1 (failure). If I run this in a DOS window I can echo %errorlevel% and it has the right value. I need to return this to the script so I can take remedial action after my call to RunWait returns.

Can anyone tell me how I can get the error code? Whether the command executes successfully or not, RunWait returns successfully either way.

from the help file

$val = RunWait("Notepad.exe", "C:\WINDOWS", @SW_MAXIMIZE)
; script waits until Notepad closes
MsgBox(0, "Program returned with exit code:", $val)

$val = RunWait("Notepad.exe", "C:\WINDOWS", @SW_MAXIMIZE)
; script waits until Notepad closes
MsgBox(0, "Program returned with exit code:", $val)

Doh!

Thanks. :"> Upto now I've only used @error and not the RunWait return code. Glad to know that was an easy outcome.

Another way to get an exit code can be found at this url: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=23096. To get info from a cmd prompt see the function reference for StderrRead() in the help file.
