Is AHK v1.1 Still Being Developed Now that v2.0 Has Been Released?

Post by Buddha Nature » 31 Dec 2022, 06:31

Now that AutoHotkey v2 is released will AutoHotkey v1.1 still be being developed? The reason I am asking is that I think I stumbled across a bug in v1.1 but there would be little point in trying to raise the issue if development of v1.1 has come to an end.

u can post bugs, but dont hold ur breath for feature requests. without knowing what this is about, theres nothing more to say. whatever u claim to have found may or may not be a bug at all in the first place

No, v1.1 has been done with development for some time now.

v1.1 development is basically dying a slow death. I am basically not adding new features to it, especially in areas that have already been superseded by v2.0, such as objects.


However, bug fixes may apply:

I don't intend to do much more with v1, but may continue applying bug fixes whenever it takes my interest. I make no promises.


Even trivial features likely will not make it into v1.
In fact, v2 development is also done and likely will only be seeing bug fixes:

Lexikos has big goals to move the project forward, towards 2.x and beyond!
He has been urging the community to move to v2 for quite some time, and I couldn't agree more.

TLDR: If you have in fact found a bug, post it. It will likely at least be looked at.

Tips for your bug report:

Before posting a bug report, please check that you have the latest version.
Usually it also helps to describe what result you expect AND what result you are getting.

When posting a bug report, code to reproduce the issue, a description (even a brief one) of your expectations and what results you are getting should be the bare minimum that you provide.

Thank you Tensai. I think it is really a bug with the compiler, though it might be a Windows issue to or a combination of both. I'll try posting it up once I get some spare time. It's not a serious issue, but would be worth fixing (IMHO).
