LAST VERSION - 1.0

This is my very simple and small UDF. Allows you to restart the script from any location with full restoration of the original command line parameters. I use this library in several of my programs, and I was not disappointed. I hope this UDF will be useful for many as for me. I will be glad to any feedback and suggestions.

Cool,

just what I needed. I set up a tray menu based on modern menu from Holger.
For the menu I wrote a treeview based edit tool, which can handle the menu ini.
After editing the tray menu has to be restarted.

I just thought about it, so that it works for script and exe, as I saw this tool.
Works great and really easy to use - no changes, nothing complicated - only include and use.

If I find the stars button - you get it.

Best regards, Reinhard

Yashied, that is actually brilliant. Very ingenious.

is it possible to make scite again the StdOut process for the script
So its possible to use ConsoleWrite

How to make this code write in the console

#NoTrayIcon
#Include <Misc.au3>
#Include <Restart.au3>
_Singleton('MyProgram')
If MsgBox(36, 'Restarting...', 'Press OK to restart this script.') = 6 Then
_ScriptRestart()
ConsoleWrite('-> Restarted..!')
EndIf

Your consolewrite is what is known as unreachable code, it will never get to that point.
You would need to add code, to indicate externally whether the script has been restarted.
And read it upon starting the script.
Of course upon exiting your script normally or via a crash you would need to reset whatever variable
you use, be that a text or ini file, or registry or whatever.

[PhoenixXL]

Yeah got it thanks
This works

#NoTrayIcon

#Include <Misc.au3>
#Include <Restart.au3>
_Singleton('MyProgram')
If MsgBox(36, 'Restarting...', 'Press OK to restart this script.') = 6 Then
ConsoleWrite('-> Restarted..!')
_ScriptRestart()
EndIf

[JohnOne]

Yes, but it is not strictly correct, I mean "'-> Restarting..!'" might be more apt at that point.
I'm not nitpicking, if the script fails to restart etc...

Simple and efficient, very helpful, avoid workarounds for the same purpose!
Thank you!
