I see. While I personally don't think this is a good idea, I can see how this tradeoff was made. In my opinion, the best thing would be to have a dedicated Boolean type so that a cast (be it automatic or not) from a string to a bool could be handled differently than a cast from a number to a bool. T...

When a value is required to be either true or false, a blank or zero value is considered false and all other values are considered true. This same sentence is present in the v1 docs, however, the behavior between the two versions differs. In v2, a numeric string is, seemingly, evaluated numerically...

shorthand init must be myMap:= { expressionForKey1:expressionForVal1 ,expressionForKey2: ,:expressionForVal3 } ;any omitted keys or vals must be replaced with "" What do you think should happen with Objects? This clashes with the current Object syntax, so should Objects use Object() ? Also note tha...

I see. So for "directory-of-the-currently-running-AutoHotkey.exe\Lib\" the \lib must be in the directory of the script. No, for that it must be placed in the “directory-of-the-currently-running-AutoHotkey.exe”, not the script. But there are two more Lib locations, one of which is the script's locat...

I actually didn't even need the path in the function because the lib folder was in the same folder as the script. So to test, I moved the lib folder somewhere else. You can't move a Lib folder. There are three locations where AHK will look for library files, as described here . Any other location m...

You have written two MsgBoxes, so naturally there will be two MsgBoxes shown.
It looks like you want the function to return something:

Code: Select all

FuncMsg(str)
{
	return str " has"
}

1. If I need performance I will use C++ or C#. 2. (old AHK state) mean like a103 where array == map. 3. I make some tests about Capacity and TRUE Length not equal to Capacity. This is understandable if I need 4 items let start with 4 items and don`t need to reallocate memory. 4. I think HAS must re...

Good to know, thanks for the highly accurate correction!

Complete madness in arrays and maps: array:= [] loop 10 array[A_Index]:= A_Index ;Invalid Index ??? This simple code no more works. It must be something like: array:= [] loop 10 array.Push(A_Index) ;Is that a stack or ??? This is completely true, though I don't see how this is madness. It enforces ...

In general, though, I don't see why this code you provided is at all useful. Why not call the functions directly? The script is exiting itself just to call functions, so why not call the functions directly and then exit (without registering OnExit)? it useful because it avoids duplication if ure go...

Any pre-execution error (such as a syntax error) causes the executable to exit with an exit code other than 0, typically 2, and OnExit is not called. There is nothing the script itself can do against this, it would require a ‘loader’. Also, in the rare event that the executable crashes, OnExit is no...

This works: string(largeint) == string(integer(largeint)) You can technically remove the first call to string() if you are certain that largeint is a string, but if it could also be a pure number, you need to leave it in. I recommend leaving it in either way. I'm up to explain stuff if you have any ...

I think this is a wonderful and it's great that you shared. Thank you! Please don't take this the wrong way, but I think putting just a function under GPL is unnecessary and even odd. It's arguably much better to put such under the MIT license (where it has your name as the copyright holder) or pub...

Hi everyone! First time sharing code on the forums, so forgive me for any mistakes I may make. This function waits for the variable you pass in to become truthy, or for the function you pass in to return a truthy value. You can customize the interval at which it will run the check, as well as the ma...

There is no loop in the code you are showing. You might be referring to the auto-repeat functionality of Windows that automatically repeats a key if you hold it down. But that stops sending the key when you press another key. This might be the effect you are observing, in which case there is not muc...

Not sure if you want to include in and contains , since those are not actually operators in v1 and not yet operators in v2. is is fine, since it is an operator in v2 (not in v1 though). If you really want to list those pseudo-operators, then you should also include between as well as all the negated...

I suggest adding the class name stored in __Class , the parent class (base class in AHK) you get by using extends , the this built-in, and mentioning that this.base is equivalent to most other languages' super built-in. Also, you can surely call __Init the “initializer”. That's all from my part. Tak...
