java.policy

[iceberg]

hi guys,

wats the best possible way to edit a java.policy file?

i need to do a "filewrite"

thanks.

What format is a java.policy file? JSON? I don't think there are any AutoIt functions created to deal with that format directly. What is normally used to edit a java.policy file?

FileRead()/FileWrite() don't work...? Is it Unicode? If so, you just have to use the latest version of AutoIt and some extra parameters.

AutoIt now supports Unicode, if you are running the current version. You just specify that by options when you do FileOpen().

$file = FileOpen("d:\java.policy", 128)

; Check if file opened for writing OK
If $file = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.")
    Exit
EndIf

FileWriteLine($file, "Line1")
FileWriteLine($file, "Line2" & @CRLF)
FileWriteLine($file, "Line3")

FileClose($file)

i tried the open codes. when i output to a msgbox its fine...but i just cant get it to write some data into it...

i tried with 32 and 64 as well. same problems.

If you set FileOpen mode just as 128 or 64 or 32, it means file will be opened in read mode (0).

UTF8 (over)write mode would be 128+2

thanks siao, i should have looked at the Help more carefully before posting.

ok, another thing is this......

#include <File.au3>

$file2 = FileOpen("d:\java.policy", 130)

; Check if file opened for writing OK
If $file2 = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.")
    Exit
EndIf

_FileWriteToLine($file2, 3, "my replacement for line 3", 1)

FileClose($file2)

Why doesnt my _FileWriteToLine work? thanks.

[Siao]

Because _FileWriteToLine doesn't support file handles, it takes filename and does FileOpen/FileClose automatically.

alright...cool.
