Radimus Radimus Moderator Registered: 2000-01-06 Posts: 5187 Loc: Tampa, FL	something like : onerror("exit @error") $objConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") $objConn.ConnectionTimeout = $ConnTimeout $objConn.Open($ConnDSN) endonerror instead of $objConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") if @ERROR exit @ERROR endif $objConn.ConnectionTimeout = $ConnTimeout if @ERROR exit @ERROR endif $objConn.CommandTimeout = $CmdTimeout if @ERROR exit @ERROR endif $objConn.Open($ConnDSN) if @ERROR exit @ERROR endif [ 10 May 2002, 20:06: Message edited by: Radimus ] _________________________ How to ask questions the smart way <-----------> Before you ask

MCA MCA KiX Supporter Registered: 2000-04-28 Posts: 5152 Loc: Netherlands, EU	Dear Radimus, A good idea. In some other languages we have such capability. It will reduce the requirement of additional code for abnormal situations. Specially when scripts aborts. Our suggestion is to extend your OnError function with the capability to execute a piece of kixtart script f.e. OnError(exit @error) OnError(MessageBox("Script abort with error @error (@serror)","KiXtart @scriptname")) $message='MessageBox("Script abort with error @error (@serror)","KiXtart @scriptname")' OnError(Execute($message) Exit @error) greetings. _________________________ email scripting@wanadoo.nl homepage scripting@wanadoo.nl \| Links \| Summary of Site Site KiXforms FAQ kixtart.org library collection mirror MCA \| FAQ & UDF help file UDF kixtart.org library collection mirror MCA \| mirror USA \| mirror europe UDF scriptlogic library collection UDFs \| mirror MCA

Just take a look at Radimus' example. Instead of checking the error code of each COM-function, you can group them together and achive a lower KiXgolf score. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	I know what you mean but if you look at the code rad provided, you see this: $objConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") you may get error if system does not have this functionality. and: $objConn.ConnectionTimeout = $ConnTimeout $objConn.Open($ConnDSN) these are dependant of the first one. if you don't know if the system has services of the needed type, you just want kixtart to take the errors for you? it's just sloppy code, nothing else. there is no reason why any soft or com call would return any error if not specifically needed. and needs are of 2 types: -1 = coder writes code that is unsupported -2 = end user makes a choise that causes error these are both predictable. thus, I don't see any reason for on-error "event" _________________________ ! download KiXnet

JensKalski JensKalski Starting to like KiXtart Registered: 2000-12-13 Posts: 186 Loc: Germany	I have tried to write a Kix-Script to check websites in our Intranet and at the internet. For this I'm using the "WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1"-object. There I can set the proxy and first of all a timeout. But when I check the websites and a timeout occurs, the Kixtart-Script Quits. In vbscript I can change this behaviour and check the error-object after the check times out. For using all of the nice COM-Objects it absolutely neccesary that we have a thing like ON ERROR RESUME NEXT. For the webcheck-script I had to change to vbscript _________________________ Jens Kalski

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	again, your script quits because you don't have a check for the objects results. little better code will remove the need for this. also, you don't neccessarely need the winhhtp-object as with ie5 and later you can use xmlhttp-object which ships with ie (although it uses the same settings as ie). _________________________ ! download KiXnet

Here is a little sample

code:

BREAK ON
$ = SETOPTION("Explicit", "ON")

GLOBAL		$False
		$False	= (0=1)
DIM		$Status

GLOBAL	$HTTPRequest
	$HTTPRequest	= CreateObject("winhttp.winhttprequest.5.1")
IF @ERROR <> 0
	$ = Log("CreateObject [winhttp.winhttprequest.5.1] failed!")
	QUIT
ENDIF

$Status = CheckURL("http://www.microsoft.com/")
? "http://www.microsoft.com/" + "  ---  " + $Status

$Status = CheckURL("http://infoportal.gv.hamburg.de/infoportal")
? "http://infoportal.gv.hamburg.de/infoportal" + "  ---  " + $Status

$Status = CheckURL("http://www.microsoft.com/")
? "http://www.microsoft.com/" + "  ---  " + $Status

EXIT 0

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FUNCTION CheckURL($URL)
	$HTTPRequest.SetProxy(2, "proxy.gv.hamburg.de", "<localhost>;")
	$HTTPRequest.SetTimeouts(2000, 2000, 2000, 2000)
	$ = $HTTPRequest.Open("GET", $URL, $False)
	$ = $HTTPRequest.Send
; Here the script dies when it timeout
	$CheckURL = $HTTPRequest.Status
ENDFUNCTION

The Script dies after the .Send when it times out. How can this be catched with kix?

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	dunno why it does that for you as it does not do that for me. but what it does is give error 9 of the status line. com objects have 2 most usual errors: 6 and 9. they mostlikely mean: "this da thing is not supported" but indeed, it does not crash for me, it just returns nothing _________________________ ! download KiXnet

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	it's good to quess so. I think it's bug in your OS. you have no lead what so ever what the problem is. and like your example has shown, onerror is not needed but more proper script control. basically com already is higher level scripting so it also requires more carefull coding. _________________________ ! download KiXnet
