Hi how to solve this problem?

[subhaoviya]

Hi,Im developing a plug in which should remove the extra spaces between and at the end of the text.

error = sAITextRun->SetTextRunByteCount(line,strlen((char*)buffer));

if(error)

{

MessageBox(NULL, "Error->SetTextRunByteCount", "LW TOOL", 0);

return error;

}

error = sAITextRun->SetTextRunByteCodes (line,0,strlen((char*)buffer),(unsigned char *)buffer);
if(error)
{

MessageBox(NULL, "Error->SetTextRunByteCodes", "LW TOOL", 0);

return error;

}

if(ccount1 >1 && buffer[ccount1-2] == ' ')


{

trim((char*)buffer);

sprintf(buf,"%d",strlen((char*)buffer));

MessageBox(NULL,buf,"trim",0);

error = sAITextRun->SetTextRunByteCount(prevline,strlen((char*)buffer)+1);

if(error)

{

MessageBox(NULL, "Error->SetTextRunByteCount", "LW TOOL", 0);

return error;

}

error = sAITextRun->SetTextRunByteCodes (prevline,0,strlen((char*)buffer),(unsigned char *)buffer);

if(error)

{

MessageBox(NULL, "Error->SetTextRunByteCodes", "LW TOOL", 0);

return error;

}


error = sAITextRun->GetTextRunByteCount (prevline,&ccount1 );

error = sAITextRun->GetTextRunByteCodes (prevline,0,ccount1,(unsigned char *)buffer );

}

While im using this code,while running in batch process it gets hanged.
Please tell me a solution.
Im using illustrator 10,VC++.

It's been a loooong time since I worked in AI10 -- the text engine is completely different in CS and later -- but my first instinct is to ask "Why are you using Text*Byte*() calls?" Admittedly, it's been a while, but I don't remember ever using anything as 'low level' as that. I thought there were much simpler methods of getting the text, at which point you could just execute your trim() and put it back. But maybe I'm wrong, I don't even have a copy of the AI10 API to look at anymore, and the newer ones don't contain the old text suites since they're history.
