ObjShare() example Topic is solved

[RazorHalo]

First time trying out AutoHotKey_H v1 to see if the Multi-Threading will help my script. Reading the docs it seems pretty simple to use ObjShare() to be able to access my class method from the thread started with AhkThread().

I have been trying everything I can think of for hours now and I can't even get the example form the docs https://hotkeyit.github.io/v2/docs/commands/ObjShare.htm#Examples to work.

All I ever get is an error LResult Object could not be created

I have installed _H correctly as far as I can tell as other examples from the docs run fine. Is there any issue with ObjShare() command that anyone else has expirenced? Can someone verify that the example works, and if so what could i possible be missing?

Thanks

The example was for an older AHK_H v2, here for v1, just changed to ObjShare(" lresult "):

Code: Select all

Gui,Add,Slider,vSlider,50
Gui,Add,CheckBox
Gui,Show,w200 h100
t:=new Test 
lresult := ObjShare(t) ; Create lresult to use in a different thread
AhkThread("
(
    t := ObjShare(" lresult ") ; Create IDispatch proxy COM object
    Loop
        t.CheckBox()
)")
 
Loop
  t.Slider()
return
GuiClose:
ExitApp
Class Test {
  CheckBox(){
    GuiControlGet,value,,Button1
    GuiControl,,Button1,% Value?0:1
  }
  Slider(){
    GuiControlGet,value,,Slider
    if value=100
      value:=0
    GuiControl,,Slider,% Value+1
  }
}

Thanks HotKeyIt, I did not realize that syntax was different.

I can't seem to find reference to that in the docs...is that just for _H specific functions called from within AhkThread()?

No, see expressions: https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/Variables.htm#Expressions
