Having trouble with WriteFile (2.6.0)

[DeMo]

When I try to use WriteFile or WriteLnFile I get:

• Run-time error (OnCommand): Access violation at address 00403EC2 in module 'soldatserver.exe'

I'm using WriteFile on a script I'm working on.
I tried it in a simple procedure (that is called through OnCommand) just to make sure and it stills crashes.

Code: [Select]

procedure test(Text: string);
begin
  WriteLnFile('test.txt', Text);
end;

function OnCommand(ID: Byte; Text: string): boolean;
begin
  if (Text = '/test') then test('just testing!');
  Return := false
end;
It works, "just testing" is written to test.txt, but after that I get the Run-time error.
I had a lot of trouble with GetPiece in this version too. In 2.5.4 the index started at 1, in the new version it seems to start at zero. I was in a hurry so I didn't test it very much, but it was giving me a headache so I used the split function instead.

Can anyone test the WriteFile and WriteLnFile functions and report if it works for you?
Thanks.

Set Debug_Mode=3 and paste the results.

Here's the output:

Code: [Select]

/log
|| ScriptFunc(OnAdminMessage);
|| ScriptCore.SetVariables();
Command
|| ScriptFunc(OnCommand);
|| ScriptCore.SetVariables();
|| ScriptCore.AppendFile(test.txt);
 [*] Run-time error (OnCommand): Access violation.......

Hope it helps.

You will find the file is still created.

Fixed it now anyway

[DeMo]

Yep, it creates (if needed) and writes to the file.
But after that it crashes.

Should I wait for a new version of the Dedicated?

ye, i already noticed this yesterday, WriteLnFile has the same bug.

[EnEsCe]

In the future, for small bugs like this I am going to put "pre-release" soldatserver binaries on my website for download. Only for small fixes relating to the script core.

[Avarax]

great... so where is the fix? ;P

[EnEsCe]

In the future

[urraka]

i wanna use that function too, and i get the same error
how far is that future?

[EnEsCe]

The future arrived like 3 days ago, sheesh

[urraka]

aff u should smite me for that... i guess i can find that fix in your website? (which i discovered yesterday)

[DeMo]

Dedicated Server Pre-Release 2.6.1
"You need to be a registered member to download this file..."
Ok.. registered myself.
"You need 15+ posts before you can dowload this file"

OMG why is it so hard to just grab an update?
I haven't updated my clan's server to 2.6.0 until now because WriteFile didn't work and I need it for my scripts. And now there's all this complications to just download the update.

[DorkeyDear]

i got the 2.6.1 thing and didn't realise the split(...) didn't work

[urraka]

You should download the xsplit code snippet, then you can rename its function to split. And it will work for Linux too.

[EnEsCe]

People are gonna have to use xsplit, I can not include Split as built-in now because the TStringArray variable causes access violations when being used between soldatserver<->script.
