UDF's ... how to inculde...


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Okay, I promise i did look first as I love the help and forums. Im trying to inculde a UDF that didn't come with Autoit, so I followed the instructions below

https://www.autoitscript.com/wiki/Adding_UDFs_to_AutoIt_and_SciTE

Im am now totally confused. I am looking at "- If you have SciTE4AutoIt3 you can use SciTEConfig"   ....  how do I know if I have that one? I think I don't as it says SciTE-Lite  Version 3.4.1 in the Help and About in the script editor, but can someone confirm?   (If its wrong ill go speak to the IT fairies and ask for the correct verison to be installed).

The other option it seems to suggest is that I do the following:

"There is a special registry value that can be created at "HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutoIt v3AutoIt" called "Include". It should be a REG_SZ (string) value."  I don't have that in my Registry, but I have the below?

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutoIt v3Aut2Exe

Do i just create the key in v3 or in Aut2Exe, and also ... the string value, does that need to be the address of the inculde folder like "c:my test inculde folder" ?

Sorry, i know its a dumb questions but i did try first, I hate that. I finished my 1 big project yesterday using autoit, im converting from VBA but its slow going, I appreciate everyones input.

Regards,

Dixie

First, I did not read your post

Pretend that UDF is ScriptX.au3 & your script is ScriptY.au3

Copy ScriptX.au3 to ScriptY.au3's location and add #include "ScriptX.au3" to your script
