[closed] up vote 0 down vote i/o error 32 game maker favorite I'm trying to write a line to a text file in Delphi 7 with the code below, but it gave this error: "Raised Exception Class EInOutError with 'I/O error 32'" AssignFile(trackertxt, 'tracker.txt'); ReWrite(trackertxt); WriteLn(trackertxt, 'left'+':'+':'); CloseFile(trackertxt); It's not being used by any other application, yet it still gives error 32.

I wouldn't ask a question if I hadn't already tried to find the answer somewhere else. –Penian4 Apr 29 '13 at 21:00 2 Error code 32 means: "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process." –Jerry Dodge Apr 29 '13 at 21:00 2 Well, clearly something else has locked the file. Quite likely it's the same process that this code lives in. It's easy for you to see that the code in the question works fine. Just put that code in an empty program and observe t

Rewrite(MyOutFile); Now it gives me an "I/O error 32" (with the file existing or not). What http://www.delphigroups.info/2/a7/334575.html is error 32? Where does Delphi hide its error code deciphering? What could be wrong? Thanks Danny Schoemann Dan...@dorotree.com Team Delphi Developer Fri, 19 Apr 2002 03:00:00 GMT Re:What is I/O error 32?

Thanks Ralph. Your pointers helped us fix the problem. For the record, here's the story: After digging i/o error 32 around the Windows.pas files and all other .pas files containing the word "sharing" I discovered that error code 32 is a generic code for any "undefined" I/O error. ( To quote commdlg.pas: "Note: Undefined return values map to OFN_SHAREWARN, but are reserved for future use.") By stepping and guessing we traced it to a line in a previous function "RmDir(MyDirName)" that failed. Since we were not trapping IO errors with IOResult then all subsequent IO failed (as per help file - - "If an I/O error occurs and I/O-checking is off, all subsequent I/O operations are ignored until a call is made to IOResult. Calling IOResult clears the internal error flag".) Only RmDir causes this and not RemoveDir. So we are now using RemoveDir. Most of the time (all the time?) RemoveDir (and RmDir) fail. Not serious but peculiar.
