AutoHotkey Community

Hello ladiko,

I added version info and compiled my program with your Compile_AHK. All informations are correctly displayed in file properties. But I am wondering why this info is not displayed in Process Explorer (Sysinternals) like other programs. Any idea?
Thank you for your effort.

i cant reproduce this behaviour. i need more informations. f.e. which settings do you use (program.ahk.ini) ?

contents of ahk.ini file:

[AHK2EXE]
Exe_File=%In_Dir%\PCLog.exe
Alt_Bin=

No_UPX=0

[ICONS]

you changed the charset and language id. with the defaults (english us, unicode) everything is ok.

Yes it is OK with defaults. Thank you very much.

Compile_AHK works full with the new Autohotkey version?

seems to work without problems.
compile_ahk itself is compiled with 1.0.47 and so it would only cause problems if the command line parameters of ahk2exe.exe have been changed. internal changes inside the AutoHotkeySC.bin / AutoHotkey.exe doesn't effect compile_ahk.

I tried it with both v.1.0.47 and v.1.0.48
but whenever I try to add an image in bmp / jpeg as resource and compile
I'm getting this error saying

please help. thanks in advance.
If I don't add image as resource then it works fine and smooth.

from now on compile_ahk is compiled with ahk version 1.0.48.0

Update of 2009-03-02

+ Fixed: useless error message if addresource.script should be deleted, but doesn't exist

Download Compile_AHK

Tried the ahk script, redownloaded from first post's link (hopefully it's updated):This happens because of the old issue with too long paths, I believe.

As I said before, my solution was to copy GoRC.exe and ResHacker.exe to %temp%\AutoHotkey\Compiler and use that shorter path (since A_WorkingDir is already set to the above) throughout the script.

Can't wrap my head around the code now due to a nasty cold but I'll try to fiddle with it in a few days when I get my reasoning back. I do have another small issue though, that's easy to fix - the AlwaysOnTop icon is not displayed when running the ahk script. For that, I've extracted the 2 icons and put them in the script folder, named as AOT_on.ico and AOT_off.ico and modified the script accordingly:


[EDIT]
Old bug in the installer (forgot about it until now) - on first window, the slightest move of the mouse cursor will lead to only displaying the currently hovered link or radio control:

on xp? i compiled a script in
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\ladiko\Desktop\ChangeTBServer with changed version info and doesn't get an error. My %temp% is
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\ladiko\Lokale Einstellungen\Temp so i also have long pathes?! the compile_ahk.log told me that gorc is called with 8.3 pathes:
"C:\Programme\AutoHotkey\Compiler\GoRC.exe" /r "C:\DOKUME~1\ladiko\LOKALE~1\Temp\AutoHotkey\Compiler\VersionInfo.rc" >> "C:\DOKUME~1\ladiko\LOKALE~1\Temp\AutoHotkey\Compiler\GoRC.log"
this path has 183 characters.

yes, the icons are included to compile_ahk.exe - it's not a bug, it's a feature...

can't confirm this on xp sp3 and vista sp1 oO

You know I'm on Win98SE... *sigh*
Nevermind, I'll take care of the issues myself when I can.

the window on the screenshot is themed!? windowblinds on win9x? hmm i have to see if i install win9x on a VM in the next days to test.

thanks a lot for it, my problem is solved, now I can add the images as resources in the exe but its not showing the image after I do it I mean

take an example



I can successfully compile the EXE with the image as resource but after that, when I rename the image.jpeg file- the exe stops showing the photo.
or is that normal? I thought this thing adds the image file within the exe?

Well, I guess it does but it doesn't also modify your script to link to it, so you'd have to do that manually in the script, before compiling. Might be a bit tricky since you need the resource number or something (haven't played with this option).Yes, the OS is themed but not with WB - it's Tihiy's UberSkin, from the MSFN.org boards. And the theme is a variation done by myself of the included Royale theme.
