回复： Re: 回复： ini_WriteToFile function can not support a cihinese directionary. why? bug?

[lemontree33]

Hello;
   I have met a problem when I use ini_writetofile in cvi 8.0. That's it doesn't  work  if  the  ini  file  is in  a  chinese  path.
   And  even  the  ini file   exists  int the directionary, The ini_writeToFile will delete it and return an error.
  The function ini_loadFromFile can work OK in same situation. why?
  Thanks.

  I am sorry to make a mistake in the tiltle. But i can not edit it . I mean in a Chinese path, it can not work well.

I have no experience on chinese language, but the inifile instrument source code is available so you can examine it and check where and why the error arises.

Ini_WriteToFile function is based on the following functions:

- CreateAndOpenTemporaryFile from the Programmer's Toolbox, whose source code is also available (ultimately it uses fopen to open the file)

- A series of fwrite to write elements down to the file

- fclose to close the file, and finally

- DeleteAndRename

You can load both IniFile and toolbox as instruments and then attach the source code and execute it line by line to find the line on error.

Thanks!
   I trace into it. And finally, I found  the function RenameFile return a -1 error. It mean file or directionary not found. Can i get its source code?

[RobertoBozzolo]

Unfortunately RenameFile is part of the utility library and is not distributed at source code level.

I'm afraid I cannot help anymore in this problem... sorry.

Thanks for your good advise!
 I have solved it. But i am sure it's a bug from NI.
I have tested the function 'RenameFile'  int English path and Chinese path  and found some funny thing:
 If you pass it a absolute path,  it can support both English and Chinese Path.But 
 if you pass it a relative path, it only  support English path. One chinese path will lead to a -1 error.
So I replace the path with absoluate one, the problem is OK now.
 By the way, Ahtough i use cvi not more than half a year. I really found some bugs in it. I think in the ole and multithread  fields, It should be tested more.
I use the cvi8.0, perhaps the version has corrected them.

i think i know how to solve it.

you should add the instrum file(inifile.fp here) to the project once, not load the instrument only.

without adding it, it may works well usually, but may fails loading path name sometimes, which causes the target file deleted.
