Error handling Topic is solved

[derz00]

This line crashed my script silently. Try running it with v2. (I had typed it in there, than went to the docs because I couldn't remember what AHK v2 used, than forgot that it was there.)

Code: Select all

IfExist

I guess error handling takes a fair amount of development, so I figured the devs would want to know. :)

:wave:

It's not this line specifically that causes silent crash.

Code: Select all

#Persistent
#SingleInstance FORCE



Return

iPretendToBeVariableIguess ; Causes silent crash by just being in the code

#If (A_IsCompiled != 1)
F10::Reload

This also causes silent crash on start up, despite being in "zombie code" area (code flow / thread can't go there) except for load up.

Offtopic - v2 related about GUI: https://autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=37157 - anyone?

Code: Select all

---------------------------
AHK_CQT_437072484
---------------------------
Error at line 9.

Line Text: iPretendToBeVariableIguess
Error: This line does not contain a recognized action.

The program will exit.
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

This is the error v1 gives when there is a unrecognized word. It must be as simple as this not be programmed correctly in v2.

Probably the same as this.

An invalid pointer is dereferenced within the error-text generating code because the line has neither a pre-resolved function nor a parameter (i.e. because pre-resolution of the function failed; i.e. the function doesn't exist). As with any invalid dereference, whether you get an app crash depends on seemingly random factors (anything which affects what the invalid pointer points to).

It will be fixed.

Cheers.

Sure enough. Thanks for pointing it out.
