How to change file details with AHK_H?

[uhwok3n]

I'm hoping there is a way to change the file details of an AHK_H.exe when it is compiled?

Here is a reference of what I want to change:

I want to change:

Code: Select all

File description
File Version
Product Name
Product Version

I've seen alternative compilers for AutoHotKey_L that can do this:

I'm hoping there is a similar compiler for H? Or perhaps a command I can include in the script to change these values? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yes, the included compiler does support these features.

First off, I appreciate your work @HotKeyIt!

When I compile it myself with visual studio, clean/pack, and copy the "AutoHotkey.exe" file over from "64w_MT" into my autohotkey/compiler folder and rename it "Ahk2Exe.exe" I don't have those options. I only see:

Select ahk script
Save exe destination
Select Icon
Compression
Encryption
MPress compression
And compile

I'm using ahk_h v1 btw. Where can I get that compiler with those options?

You have to include compiler options in script: https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=521

@HotKeyIt
Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for. Quick question:

Is there any way I can change "SetDescription" to be empty? so there is no value in that area?

EDIT: Mentioned HotKeyIt instead of myself

Try using a space

Thanks I will try that!

Bump(Woopsies):

@HotKeyIt So I tried using a space, it doesn't work. Is there a name I can use instead that may trigger this result, i.e. 'null' so that it will do this?
Or maybe this functionality can be added to the compiler?

Example:

Code: Select all

;@Ahk2Exe-SetName null
;@Ahk2Exe-SetDescription null
;@Ahk2Exe-SetVersion 0.0.1
;@Ahk2Exe-SetCopyright Copyright (c) 2020
;@Ahk2Exe-SetOrigFilename null

[HotKeyIt]

You can use ;@Ahk2Exe-SetDescription `t

Thank you @HotKeyIt
