GUICtrlCreateEdit Limit with 30000 strings

[Hannes]

Hello everyone,

i'm using Autoit 3.2.0.1 final.

Every Script i build is working fine and fast, and also very stable.

The most scripts are used to automate sms 2003, so i'm always want some return messages in a

GUICtrlCreateEdit Status field (within a gui).

At the moment i'm pushing hundreds of clients into a sms collection and the return codes etc. will be displayed in the control GUICtrlCreateEdit field ($edit_status).

The last scripts i wrote hadn't a bug like this one,

the control didn't add anything else, although the script worked on in the background without errors.

So i count the strings in the control, when it seems that the field would not be filled anymore.

After 30.000 Strings the GUICtrlCreateEdit field don't want anymore ...

GUICtrlSetData couldn't add somehting more strings into the control $edit_status,

is there an internal limit ?

[Autoit is MasterControlProgram (MCP)]

Thanks

Hannes

here is the (for next) routine that fills the gui:

(the functions funcGetResourceID and funcCreateDirectMemberShip have no errors)

For $x = 1 to $array_Computers[0]

If ($array_Computers[$x] <> "") Then ; And (StringInStr($array_Computers[$x], "CMHM", 0, 1) > 0)

$str_ResourceID = funcGetResourceID($array_Computers[$x])

If ($str_ResourceID <> "n/a") And ($str_CollectionID <> "") Then

If $x >= 267 Then MsgBox(0,"","Debug:" & @CRLF & StringLen(GUICtrlRead($edit_status)))

GUICtrlSetData($edit_status, "Anzahl: " & $x & "/" & $array_Computers[0] & @CRLF,1)

GUICtrlSetData($edit_status, "ResouceID gefunden: " & $str_ResourceID & @TAB & " [" & $array_Computers[$x] & "]" & @CRLF,1)

funcCreateDirectMemberShip($str_ResourceID,$str_CollectionID,$array_Computers[$x])

GUICtrlSetData($edit_status, "DirectRule für [" & $array_Computers[$x] & "] in Collection [" & $str_CollName & "] erzeugt." & @CRLF,1)

$counter = $counter + 1

GUICtrlSetData($edit_status, "------------------------------------------------------" & @CRLF,1)

Else

GUICtrlSetData($edit_status, "ResouceID NICHT gefunden: " & $str_ResourceID & @TAB & " [" & $array_Computers[$x] & "]" & @CRLF,1)

$error_counter = $error_counter + 1

GUICtrlSetData($edit_status, "------------------------------------------------------" & @CRLF,1)

EndIf

EndIf

I'm sure there is a 2147483646 chr limit. I have no idea if you've reached that.

Ok,

I wrote a simpe gui to check the prob again,

attached is a simple gui (press Hinzufügen) that generates 1000 lines in a edit field, try it.

With the Line

GUICtrlSetData($edit_status, "------------------------------------------------------" & @CRLF,1)

uncommented, you get only 30000 Strings read in the edit field (press Zurücksetzen) and only 424 from 1000 possible lines...

Wheres the error ?

Yep, stops dead on 30,000 chars.

Yeah thanks,

now that i added

GUICtrlSetLimit($edit_status,0x7FFFFFFF)

there's no limit anymore !

I keep this in mind, when using edit, list and othe gui controls.
