Hello,

I think this may be a bug. Whenever I goto write data to a file, my program crashes on me. Here is the code.

 
constant HP = 1 
integer handle 
sequence file, fName 
 
fName = getSaveFileName(Main,file,FrostType) 
 
 if length(fName) = 0 then 
        return 
 end if 
 
 print(handle,HP) 
 puts(handle,"\n") 
 
 close(handle)

constant HP = 1 
integer handle, fn 
sequence file, fName 
 
fName = getSaveFileName(Main,file,FrostType) 
 
 if length(fName) = 0 then 
        return 
 end if 
 
  handle = open(fName,"wb") 
 
 if handle = -1 then 
 
  fn = message_box("Save Error", 
                  "Save File Error", 
         MB_TASKMODAL) 
 end if 
 
 print(handle,HP) 
 puts(handle,"\n") 
 
 close(handle) 
 

Oh sorry. Anyways, I have corrected the code now. Can someone maybe see why there is a bug?

No, that didn't fix it. It also happens when I try to load the data as well. Also, after the program crahses. The cursor in the editor goes back to fName position.

IE: | fName = getSaveFileName(MainWin,file,FrostType)

I think it may have to do with something in the fName variable, but I'm not sure why, as I have it declared correctley, for how I want to use it.

Andy: I don't know what getSaveFileName function you are using but some libraries do not just return JUST the file name.

The filename sequence may contain additional information in the sequence so that you need to use a index to get the filename.

Print out the filename sequence and look at it.

That's great. However, next time you need some help with a problem like this, you should actually give us the error message(s) you got and maybe the relevant parts of any ex.err file created. Asking "what's wrong with this ..." is nearly always not enough information for us to go by.

Anyhow, glad you got it fixed.
