Notes on "Line -1 Error: Array ... "

[madflame991]

FINALLY! I've been having he same error an year ago and I'm still experiencing it when trying to run obfuscated scripts.

It appears no one other than me got the strange error... I even reported it as a bug to Jos (the guy who built the obfuscator), but he found nothing...

Try to run the obfuscated scrips (even the compiled ones) on another computer, you'll see that they work fine.

I'll search for the error report I made and come back with info...

Found it! This is the error report, it has a screenshot too... Enjoy

I will have a look at this and think I know what is going wrong.

Here is a simple replicator script:

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Obfuscator=y
If $cmdline[0] = 0 Then
    for $n = 1 to 5
        run(@ScriptFullPath & " 1")
;~      sleep(50)
    Next
    Exit
EndIf
;
$a = 1
$b = 2
$c = $a + $b

so as you see you guys have made it much to complicated.

Uploaded a new beta version to the Beta directory.

Could you guys do some testing with it to see if your issues are solved?

I tested with this script and didn't get any problems anymore:

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Obfuscator=y
If $cmdline[0] = 0 Then
    for $n = 1 to 100
        run(@ScriptFullPath & " " & $n)
    Next
    Exit
EndIf
$a = 1
$b = 2
$c = $a + $b
; write log entry
Do 
Until FileWriteLine("test.log",$cmdline[1])

Thanks

I tested it and it worked fine and dandy Thanks a lot for fixing it!

Jos, I think you've fixed it!

I've tested (obfuscated) my three problem scripts and they're all working fine. I cycled one particular problem sequence 50 times without a failure.

Without getting too technical, can you give us an idea of what you found/changed?

Thanks for solving this one.

I would have to explain how things are working to explain what was going wrong.

Obfuscation is sometimes a pain as debugging is somewhat of a challenge, but a fun challenge.
