Code: Select all

myGui := GuiCreate(,, Events)  ; Events is the "event sink object"
myGui.AddText("", "Press Alt+F4 or the X button in the title bar.")
myGui.OnEvent("Close", "Event_Close")  ; Callback is a method registered by name: Event_Close
myGui.Show

class Events {
   Event_Close(thisGui) {
      MsgBox "Closing Gui: " thisGui.title "`nand exiting."
   }
}

GuiCreate() is no more, use Gui()
the other thing that changed is instance methods are separate from class(static) methods. either create an instance of Events and use that as the sink or turn the instance method Event_Close into class method.

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0-a128+

myGui := Gui(,, Events)  ; Events is the "event sink object"
myGui.AddText("", "Press Alt+F4 or the X button in the title bar.")
myGui.OnEvent("Close", "Event_Close")  ; Callback is a method registered by name: Event_Close
myGui.Show

class Events {
   static Event_Close(thisGui) {
      MsgBox "Closing Gui: " thisGui.title "`nand exiting."
   }
}
