LinearMemoryMap.cmd => new version produces an error...why?

(1/1)

Dariusz Piatkowski:
So Steven Levine published an updated version of this awesome util, but I'm now seeing an error, which I can't quite decipher:

--- End code ---

I'm running this from the Theseus directory, the linearmemorymap-20231223-1059.lst is created, and appears to be fine.

Any ideas?

Hi Darirusz
Simply what I see, is that the CMD seeks in a series of roads, where people abitually install the Theseus. And on that path it is not.
If you edit the CMD, and you put these lines to work.

--- Code: ---  if queryResult \== '' then leave
    exePath = 'G:\util\theseus\theseus4.exe'
    queryResult = stream(exePath, 'C', 'QUERY EXISTS')

--- End code ---
Approximately line 154
What I don't know is like taking advantage of this tool.
saludos

Steven Levine:
Dariuz, I don't think you are running the current version of LinearMemoryMap.cmd.  The if statement is not at line 190 in recent versions.

That said, you have discovered a defect.  There is a code path that does not  define dir before it is used.  A fix should be uploaded to http://www.warpcave.com/betas/ soon.

Steven Levine:
Give

a try.

Dariusz Piatkowski:
Good sir!!!

It works fine now.

I was using your latest code, but I added my own section in the 'expose' procedure to point to where my Theseus was installed - as opposed to changing the two "well known places" you had already accounted for. Then when I had ran into that issue I commented that code out, but left it in the source, which is the reason why you're seeing the missmatch.

Bad debugging & error reporting on my part, my appologies as that just wasted your time trying to pinpoint where the issue was.

Thanks again Steven...!
