$readini() or $read() seems to be buggy.. #64233 16/12/03 08:55 PM

Also, the queue system uses a plain text file for $read()-ing/writing the queues.. I thought the script were stable enought for beta testing and let it run for the night.. When I woke up the day after, I had a "Unexpected error at.." and mIRC had crash.. Somewhere in the forums here, I've read something about, mIRC can/will crash if I use readini and writeini at the same time. Not sure if it's true or not but I know that I'm using both $readini and writeini (uses writeini mostly for storing configs, and $readini is used from time to time when the scrips check the config, like if ($readini(...)) {} and so on..) My script is currently about 6000 lines of code and it's quite hard to debug since I don't even know where in the script it is.. I've checked logs and used /debug, but nothing seems to help me.. Anyone out there who have an idea or a solution to this annoying error? Thanks. Regards, Jesper 'Z3l3zT' Wallin

Sure it might be a good solution.. but it still doesn't explain why mIRC crashes.. I can agree that it might be bad coding, but it shouldn't end up with a crash shout it?

I've been using $readini and $read for my script, most of them are used in if-then-else statements and for some reason, it made mIRC crash.. (no idea why) .. I recoded my script to use the variable instead (which both is faster and a better way of coding). Sure, it might were my "fault" mIRC crashed due to bad coding.. but it shouldn't end up with a crash.. After I recoded my script, mIRC doesn't seems to crash and everything are working fine now.. but yet, the bug seems to be there somewhere.. Regards, Jesper 'Z3l3zT' Wallin

Oh.. heh, didn't even knew it existed.. :tongue: i thought it treated all $read(ini)'s as plain-text.. but sure, yet the problem/bug exists, even if I do or do not use variables, hashtables and use the "n", it shouldn't return in a crash should it? I bet this solves the problem for good.. but the problem still remains.. Regards, Jesper 'Z3l3zT' Wallin
