Hi,

I suppose something is still wrong with Directive

Code: Select all

;@Ahk2Exe-Base [Path\]Name [, [Exe_path\][Name], Codepage]

.

1.1.37.01c, 30 September 2023
Fix Base compiler directive not fully expanding built-in variables.

Confirmed, it works.

But if user defined variable is used within this directive, in particular in section

Code: Select all

[Exe_path\][Name]

then it is not interpreted. For example variable

Code: Select all

%U_Filename%

is literally added to executable filename (executable filename contains literally string %U_Filename%).

Kind regards, mslonik ()

Unfortunately, because the Base directive is handled at an earlier stage of the compilation process, there is a limit to the kind of replacements that can be used. This note for the previous parameter also applies to the parameter you are having problems with:

Any use of built-in variable replacements must only be from group 1 above.

You could maybe use the ExeName directive instead.

Cheers

Thanks @JoeWinograd.

I have set up an Mpress binary release on GitHub and now download it from there to avoid the recent problems with the AutoHotkey web site.

Cheers

Great idea! The AutoHotkey web site downloads (via UrlDownloadToFile in V1 and Download in V2) are still not working, as of a few minutes ago. For anyone not familiar with the problem, it is being discussed at this forum thread. Cheers, Joe
