Poor library documentation #15

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Comments in the library documentation do not provide necessary information
for the usage of the keywords.

AutoItLibrary is a very thin Python wrapper for the AutoItX COM object.  The 
only
keywords in AutoItLibrary with their own documentation are the ones that add
additional functionality.  All keywords with what appears as inadequate 
documentation
in the libdoc generated file are fully documented in the
C:\RobotFramework\Extensions\AutoItLibrary\AutoItX.chm file that is installed 
by the
AutoItLibrary installer.

Ok accepted :) That leads to another issue. I could not install the library. I 
don't
generally report those kind of issues when trying out libraries, because it 
does not
give very good impression on the usability of the library if you can't even 
install
it properly (which causes me to switch to other alternatives).

My installation problem might be result of restricted rights on the computer I 
tried
to install it (no admin rights).

Error was:
"Don't think we need to unregister the old one...
%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\regsvr32.exe /S
C:\Data\Apps\Python26\Lib\site-packages\AutoItLibrary\lib\AutoItX3.dll"

At the end of the traceback...
"subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\regsvr32.exe /S
C:\Data\Apps\Python26\Lib\site-packages\AutoItLibrary\lib\AutoItX3.dll' returned
non-zero exit status 5

I've seen this in the past on Windows 7 but was recently unable to reproduce 
it. 
Make sure you're doing the install as an administrator and please raise a new 
bug
with details if it still fails to install.
