NilObject thrown in built but not during debug

[Arthur_Gabhart]

Thanks for reminder. I do have processes for checking those files.
The first line of processing a new file to this OS, or general checking of order, are for crossplatform

#If TargetWindows//OsConvert Start
  aFile = aFile.ReplaceLineEndings(EOL)
  If aFile.IndexOf("/") > -1 Then aFile = aFile.ReplaceAll( "/", FilSep )
  
  aFile = aFile.ReplaceAll( "<\", "</" )//For html type codings
#ElseIf TargetLinux Or TargetMacOS
  aFile = aFile.ReplaceLineEndings(EndOfLine.Unix)
  If aFile.IndexOf("\") > -1 Then aFile = aFile.ReplaceAll( "\", FilSep )
#EndIf//OsConvert End

Not to be too petty, but

@Julia_Truchsess

I note that there’s no Nil check before

If me.WhchSound(me.WSIdx).IsPlaying

so if WhchSound(me.WSIdx) is Nil, it will definitely throw an NoE on that line.

was posted well before

@Jeff_Tullin

these lines don’t check for nil:

If me.WhchSound(me.WSIdx).IsPlaying Then//Triangle
  me.WhchSound(WSIdx).Stop

but Jeff gets the “Solution”?

@Julia_Truchsess

but Jeff gets the “Solution”?

It happens to others as well. I usually ignore that and remember the “Solution” mark is more than often not reliable anyway.

Everything is stored as text and I have a system of partial paths for sound and image files. That partial path is stored as text and recreated as Native when I need it.

Ouch.

Better set a ‘base folder’ folderitem in code when the app starts, then use
mybasefolder.child(thefiename) when you need it
Dont mess about with slashes and replacing things.
