Address of Integer IntPtr?

There’s no way to get the address of an integer after a128 correct?

well, there's no no way of finding the address of an integer. uve got NumGet, u can read ur own memory. if u know what and where to look for, ud be able to conjure up an address(and if ure lucky, avoid corrupting ur script in the process of doing so)
what there isnt, is a practical way to do it. what u need this for? whats the use-case?

I think if NumPut allowed me to input a pointer type i.e.
int64* it would save me from having to allocate tiny structs. But you're right I'll just create the extra buffer. Thanks.
edit: It looks like numput just ignores the star.
Code: Select all
v := Buffer(8, 0), NumPut("uint*", 7, v)
MsgBox NumGet(v, "ptr")

iirc it checks just the first couple of chars to determine the type, so what follows may be irrelevant
what is a tiny struct? up to 8 bytes, u can use regular ahk variables, no need for buffer

I rewrote the saveimagetofile gdi+ function. The way tic wrote it was hacky. The structures are in the comments if you are curious.

hmm, crappy api but it has to be that way

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/gdiplus/-gdiplus-listing-parameters-and-values-for-all-encoders-use
there is a way to get a var's int ptr but it requires a VarRef:
Code: Select all
#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0-beta.1
Int64DoubleObjPtrFromVarRef(ref) {
if !(ref is VarRef)
throw TypeError('Expected VarRef, got ' Type(ref) '.', -1, 'ref')
static offsetof_mContentsUnion := A_PtrSize + ; vtbl
4 + ; mRefCount
4 ; mFlags
return ObjPtr(ref) + offsetof_mContentsUnion
}
ud then use it like so:
Code: Select all
; Select the proper codec based on the extension of the file.
quality := 33
this.select_codec(pBitmap, extension, &quality, &pCodec, &ep, &ci)
...
static select_codec(pBitmap, extension, quality_VarRef, &pCodec, &ep, &ci) {
...
ep := Buffer(24+2*A_PtrSize) ; sizeof(EncoderParameter) = ptr + n*(28, 32)
NumPut( "uptr", 1, ep, 0) ; Count
DllCall("ole32\CLSIDFromString", "wstr", "{1D5BE4B5-FA4A-452D-9CDD-5DB35105E7EB}", "ptr", ep.ptr+A_PtrSize)
NumPut( "uint", 1, ep, 16+A_PtrSize) ; Number of Values
NumPut( "uint", 4, ep, 20+A_PtrSize) ; Type
NumPut( "ptr", Int64DoubleObjPtrFromVarRef(quality_VarRef), ep, 24+A_PtrSize) ; Value
}
}
but its probably pointless to write it like so

Yes but your post is very interesting. Thanks!
