Avoid Any Error Messagbox

[Guest tempacc1]

I use a compiled autoit-script that will be started remote.

It's really the case that some features of the script can only be tested if the script is started remote.

A Problem arises because on the target machine a message box can not bee seen by anybody, so no interaction is possible leading to an indefinitely waiting process.

Is it possible to avoid any error message boxes created by autoit, even for syntax errors that may be left within very rarely executed code parts.

One Solution would be to have an other script watching for a autoit message box to pop up from the first one. But I would prefer having on Opt("?") to switch the behaviour.

By the way, we do not have an Eval('code-string') in Autoit?

It depends on what caused the msgbox. Every situation can be handled by well-written code and some pre-checking before running. You will need to search the forum for tylo's au3check which will check the entire syntax of the code before running the script. If you are getting errors while running a non-existant program, then you can use Opt("RunErrorsFatal", 0)

We need not discuss this, i thought about all of your suggestions before.

But to know EVERY situation in advance is never possible. In my case i have to exspect many future changes in environment for the script to run e.g. acces rights, file stucture...

So i just asks wether there is a switch to avoid the display of a message box, that in the case of my script nobody can ever see.

I don't know if it will work for compiled scripts but for autoit3.exe there's a switch /ErrorStdOut. I don't know if it's only in the unstable version.

Edit: Looks like it also surpresses Messageboxes on compiled scripts but does not write anything to stdout when it's compiled.

It writes to stdout, it DOES NOT write to a console window. That is virtually a technical impossibility for a Windows application to do.

Thanks, that's what i was looking for. And best, it's working in the version (3, 0, 102, 0) that i currently use.

I can not find anything about that winthin the docs. How come that You know it but not me? Where can i find these informations. May be i stumble over even greater inventions.

BTW: AutoIt is one of the best things i love to use since a long time. But whom i have to say that...

We're special.

Ohh, You did know it too!

But would You be so kind and share Your source?

Guess in the 102 beta thread. Also in help in the full changelog. But you right, it's not clearly documented yet.

I remebered that scite does this and wrote a small one-character-script to run in scite and then checked which command line option it used.
