masvil Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Hi, My piece of code: --begine-- If FileExists(@ScriptDir & "\*.exe") Then $search = FileFindFirstFile("*.exe") While 1 $file = FileFindNextFile($search) If @error Then ExitLoop RunWait($file) Wend FileClose($search) EndIf --end-- There are a lot of file handle loop like this in my script. This is error that sometimes I get: --begin-- Line 0 (File "..."): $file = FileFindNextFile($search) Error: File handle invalid. Make sure that the FileOpen command succeeded --end-- I can't explain why it talk about "FileOpen": what and why I have to open a file? Help say just to FileClose at the end of file handle! -- MasviL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberSlug Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 I think I might know the problem: You never check the return value of FileFindFirstFile, so it's possible that it fails and returns -1. For me, calling FileFindNextFile(-1) results in an error message "Invalid file handle used," but I'm using the latest beta of version of AutoIt. You might think that the "If FileExists(@ScriptDir & "\*.exe") Then" should guarantee that the FileFindFirstFile should always succeed, but it *might* be looking in a different folder. If the current active "working" folder is C:\Windows\Temp, then that's where FileFindFirstFile is going to look. You might try calling the FileChangeDir function before your code sample, or you could explicitly call FileFindFirstFile(@ScriptDir & "\*.exe") if that's what you intend. Hope this helps Use Mozilla | Take a look at My Disorganized AutoIt stuff | Very very old: AutoBuilder 11 Jan 2005 prototype I need to update my sig!
