Winsettitle issue

[eleblanc]

Hi all,

I've been using script to lunch different instance of the same application simply renamed, server1.exe,server2.exe,server3.exe,server4.exe, etc.

Is there any know issue when running autoit 2.64 on windows 2003. I was running the script on windows 2000 for more then one year without issue. I have upgraded to a faster server running 2003 and here is the part i am having trouble with;

run, C:\\racingservers\\Program\\StartNR2003.exe %numrs%\",, min

WinWaitActive, NR2003

WinSetTitle,NR2003, ,NR2003rs%numrs%

Now with the above, the application would open and close quickly and never get rename until i click on it on the menu bar, then it would settitle and script would continu. Seem like this new server simply minimize the windows to fast for the winwaitactive. So i modified the script like below,

run, C:\\racingservers\\Program\\StartNR2003.exe %numrs%\"

WinWaitActive, NR2003

WinSetTitle,NR2003, ,NR2003rs%numrs%

WinMinimize,NR2003rs%numrs%

I tested this and seemed to work ok. But when user started lunching there application i went on the server and i had a bunch of instance/windows still named NR2003 and not renamed correctly. And that caused the next instance lunch to simply rename wrong windows and create havoc on the window/instance naming.

I am questioning if i really need winwaitactive, it has been a long time since i did this.

Need help here.

Thanks

Eric

runwait, C:\\racingservers\\Program\\StartNR2003.exe %numrs%\",, min

WinWaitActive, NR2003

WinSetTitle,NR2003, ,NR2003rs%numrs%

or

runwait, %COMSPEC% /C C:\\racingservers\\Program\\StartNR2003.exe %numrs%\",, Min

WinWaitActive, NR2003

WinSetTitle,NR2003, ,NR2003rs%numrs%

or

I guess StartNR2003 isnt a command line app, so the DOS box could be executed hidden style (?)

runwait, %COMSPEC% /C C:\\racingservers\\Program\\StartNR2003.exe %numrs%\",, Hide

WinWaitActive, NR2003

WinSetTitle,NR2003, ,NR2003rs%numrs%
