Description (last modified by Valik)

When I use a long argument(more than 120 char) for functions:
Run, RunWait etc, ExitCode off started programm always = 0, but programm not started.

An examples (ex1-work, ex2 doesnt):
ex1:

Set oAutoIt = WScript.CreateObject("AutoItX3.Control")
val = oAutoIt.RunWait("calc.exe anParamThatLessThan120Char", "C:\WINDOWS", oAutoIt.SW_MAXIMIZE)
' script waits until Notepad closes
WScript.Echo "Program returned with exit code:" & val

Result: Calc started

ex2:

Set oAutoIt = WScript.CreateObject("AutoItX3.Control")
val = oAutoIt.RunWait("calc.exe anParamThatMoreThan120CharForExample121charAndEtc_forCheckThisMakeThisStringLEnMoreThan120charsRealyMoreThan120ThankForYourSupport", "C:\WINDOWS", oAutoIt.SW_MAXIMIZE)
' script waits until Notepad closes
WScript.Echo "Program returned with exit code:" & val

Result: cals isnt started, but Msbox says that calc returns 0 as exitcode

Thanks

Please read WikiStart to learn how to properly post code on the issue tracker. In case you didn't notice: This isn't the forum.

Now, as for the ticket itself... okay, and? The documentation clearly states to check the error property on the AutoItX3 object to see if a call to Run() or RunWait() failed. I don't see you checking that property so the return value of 0 is expected.

Finally, I am pretty sure this is not a bug. There are OS-imposed limits on the length of the command line and its parameters. I'll test it but I don't expect to find a problem in AutoIt(X).

Sorry for my previous post.

I check that Run\RunWait returns 1 to @error for example 2. Its ok, its realy failed.

But.. where I can get information about len of cmd and parameters?
I create a stupid vbs script, that starts calc with any len of parameters(much more that 120 chars).
And I can start Calc again wtih any len of parameter throw windows shell(cmd).

I check documenation again - it has information that max len of any script line can be =4096 chars. And nothing about len for Run\Runwait family cmds.

Situation was reprodused on WinXP SP3 x86 and on Win2003 SP1 x86.

Thanks again.
