No, there are always other hacks. For instance, if the property corresponds to an actual variable, you can use a reference to that variable instead of a reference to the property. I demonstrated this in the topic Byref Array elements (Wish List) . (You still can't use the syntax &this.myvar .) Inte...

It is not possible to construct a VarRef for a property of an object (such as foo.bar ), A_Clipboard or any other built-in variable, so those cannot be passed ByRef. Source: Functions - Definition & Usage | AutoHotkey v2 This is because a property is not a variable, and VarRef doesn't support the l...

So... no idea at the moment how to properly pass object properties via references in a method's parameters?

OliverK

this.GetsCalled(this.myvar) this.myvar isn't an object reference but a property getter, so you pass the string "teststring2" to the GetsCalled() method. On the other hand &this.myvar passes a VarRef of a temporary variable containing that string. Well, @this.myvar was the first thing I tried, but i...

What would you do with a cloned buffer? Clone creates a shallow copy of an object, i.e. 'each property or method owned by the object is copied into the clone'. The Buffer object has two special properties, Ptr and Size . The memory block assigned to the buffer doesn't seem to be an own property. So...

Objects are always passed by reference, so there's no point in passing them via &. Yes, this would've been my assumption too regarding my experience in other languages. But.. Class TESTME2 { myvar := "teststring2" MyFunction() { this.GetsCalled(this.myvar) msgbox this.myvar } GetsCalled(myvarrefnam...

In addition to the methods and property inherited from Object , Buffer objects have the following predefined properties. Nowhere does it say that not all methods are inherited, or any of them are overridden. This may be true but that it "must inherit" all the methods and properties is not correct a...

Buffer extends Object and must inherit all of its methods and properties, including the Clone() method.

"Must"? Are you sure about that?

Methods can be overwritten, at least as far as I know.

Don't know why in this case though..

OliverK

Ah, well.. okay.. this works, but it's no solution to my "real" problem (.. but I didn't state my REAL problem which led me to the originating post as far as I see... so.. my fault). In this case, you have to know already that you want to address "this.myvar". Passing a reference as a parameter woul...

Hello. Just a (simple?) question.. how to pass a property of a class (or the object based on the class) WITHIN a function call ? Something like #Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 testinstance := TESTME() testinstance.MyFunction() Class TESTME { myvar := "teststring" MyFunction() { this.GetsCalled(&this.myvar...

OliverK

Short update.. this was the solution. Thanks!

Maybe you need vscode-autohotkey2-lsp, this is a vscode extension that is compatible with v2.

I'll look into this.. thanks!

Hello, I'm using the latest VSCode and the extensions AutoHotkey Plus Plus and AutoHotKey Debug.. and my outline subwindow keeps telling me ""No symbols found in document.." no matter which AHK file I load (V2 only, I don't use V1 any more) Debugging and auto-formatting seems to work (but no paramet...

Seeing the indention there in the unfolded block.. how can you avoid that the curly braces are indented? It's not my style, never seen that to be honest.. So: if(a = b) ...{ ......; do something ...} should be: if(a = b) { ...; do something } (.) just placeholders for space Everytime I have to move ...

Thanks! I've looked for the topic via the the forum search function, but for whatever reason I didn't find it there.

Hello everyone,

I know there was a class for ListViews to enable editing of ListView columns other than column 1.. but it is for V1 only, of course.

Did anyone bother to convert it to V2 or is there an alternative available?

Thanks!

OliverK

you guys are amazing. I had a similar problem to these problems myself within the past couple of days. I also found the VA library, and I also considered converting it or partially converting it for my needs, but up to now I've been too lazy to really dig into it. Instead I found a NirSoft tool tha...

Ah, well.. didn't recognize you're the same person from the other thread... :P >>"Like a loop going throught all numbers until it mutes em all." Well, if you WANT to realize it in such a kind of "brute-force-way" you could put the SoundSetMute call within a "try" block and let it fail silently if it...

Dealing with audio devices is quite a complex topic in Windows... looking in source code of comparable solutions (even official Microsoft ones like "Microsoft Power Toys") shows that there's a lot of stuff which has to be done to enumerate devices, identifying them (and their capabilities) and so on...

OliverK

I've never worked with Microsoft voice recognition beforce.. but one idea would be: IF the voice recognition can identify single letters, then I would just use hotstrings in AHK to trigger your code.. or call other programs and stuff.
