AutoUpdateIt Bug

[Devin]

So, when you run AutoUpdateIt, you may get output like this:

>"F:\AutoIt3\SciTe\..\autoit3.exe" /ErrorStdOut "F:\AutoIt3\Extras\AutoUpdateIt\AutoUpdateIt.au3"    
F:\AutoIt3\Extras\AutoUpdateIt\AutoUpdateIt.au3 (144) : ==> Variable used without being declared.: 
GUICtrlCreateLabel('Date: ' & $s_CurrDate, 15, 40, 145, 15)

Save the file, and run it. Taa-daa!

Hmm... What version are running? I have v. 1.37 dated 08 May, 2007 and it has:

If Not @error And FileExists($s_Au3Path & '\AutoIt3.exe') Then
    $s_CurrVer = FileGetVersion($s_Au3Path & "\AutoIt3.exe")
    $s_CurrDate = _FriendlyDate(FileGetTime($s_Au3Path & "\AutoIt3.exe", 0, 1))
Else
    $s_Au3Path = 'Installation not found'
    $s_CurrVer = 'Unavailable'
EndIf

Looks like if it falls through the Else part of that IF, you could get that problem.

If there isn't already a later version posted, you should put this in bug reports, not general support.

Strange... I'm using v. 1.37 too, but it's probably because I'm running AutoIt (zipped) from my flash drive

Yeah, since it doesn't satisfy the FileExists() part of the IF, it falls through the Else and $s_CurrDate doesn't get initialized. The line that initializes $s_CurrDate should just be moved outside the IF, so it gets done either way.
