[a138] Invalid hotkey declarations permitted Topic is solved

[lvalkov]

[Moderator's note: Topic moved from Bug Reports.]

Seemingly invalid modifier combinations are accepted as valid hotkeys without raising any loading or runtime errors.

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0-a138-7538f26f
#Warn All

Hotkey('<#<#<#<#<^<!<+>#>#>#>#>^>!>+', (ThisHotkey) => '')

<#<#<#<#<^<!<+>#>#>#>#>^>!>+ Up::
{

}

Code: Select all

Type	Off?	Level	Running	Name
-------------------------------------------------------------------
k-hook				<#<#<#<#<^<!<+>#>#>#>#>^>!>+ Up
k-hook				<#<#<#<#<^<!<+>#>#>#>#>^>!>+

There aren't any invalid modifier combinations in your post. There is one invalid modifier, >, which has no effect.

Otherwise, this is a valid hotkey which can be triggered by pressing LWin, LCtrl, LAlt, LShift, RWin, RCtrl, RAlt and Plus.

(The + at the end is not a modifier, because it is not followed by a key name or character. Therefore the > preceding it does not apply to anything.)

I'm pretty sure this applies to all versions of AutoHotkey, ever.
