Problem with _FileWriteToLine

[jueki]

hello all,

here's my code, take a look please.

#include "File.au3"

$ini = "Test.ini"
$Release_File = FileReadLine($ini, 2)
$Release_File_Size = FileGetSize($Release_File)
$test = _FileWriteToLine("Test.ini", 1, $Release_File_Size, 1)

then it replaces the first line correctly with "blah test"..

any idea what i am doing wrong? the help file isnt helping me.. lol

#include <File.au3>

$ini = @MyDocumentsDir & "\test.ini"
$Release_File = FileReadLine($ini, 2)
$Release_File_Size = FileGetSize($Release_File)
IniWrite($ini,"test section",0,$Release_File_Size)

change your inifile to look like this.

[test section]

0=123456678

1=test..exe

2=test_123.exe

[Aceguy]

#include <File.au3>

$ini = @MyDocumentsDir & "\test.ini"
$Release_File = FileReadLine($ini, 2)
$Release_File_Size = FileGetSize($Release_File)
IniWrite($ini,"test section",0,$Release_File_Size)

change your inifile to look like this.

[test section]

0=123456678

1=test..exe

2=test_123.exe

If the file Test.exe doesn't exist or it's size is zero then you will be trying to write a line 0, or a null string, so nothing will happen. Maybe that's the problem.

martin,

the file size is not 0, its 300+ kb

Aceguy,

i didnt want to use the ini functions because i dont want it to have [sections] =/. the size has to stay in first line

OK, then change your line to

$test = _FileWriteToLine("Test.ini", 1, String($Release_File_Size), 1)

otherwise yu are trying to write a number as a string.

sorry dont know how to use the Quote function but in your first post...

'contents of the Test.ini'

so isnt .ini and inifile.
