Great changes, especially the file reading/flushing, InetGet, Shutdown and implementing #NoAutoIt3Execute is good "secure" thinking !

When the final is out, this is gonna be my first update since I started using AutoIt :)

Brilliant! Eliminates the need for calling FileGetAttrib when searching for files.

Jon forgot to post it so I will. These are the script-breaking changes:

Some of the following features are deprecated. Deprecated features are no longer documented but continue to work. Deprecated features will be removed after version 3.3.2.0. It is strongly recommended that scripts relying on deprecated features be updated to work with the new behavior. Some features have already been removed and will be noted as such.

AutoIt:

  • ShellExecute() and ShellExecuteWait() no longer use the "open" verb by default. See the remarks section for those functions for more details.
  • The return value of InetGet() has changed. It is important to read and understand the changes because it is possible to leak resources if InetGet() is used incorrectly.
  • InetGet("abort"), @InetGetActive and @InetGetBytesRead are now deprecated. The following list shows the new functions used to access the old behavior:
    • InetGet("abort") - Calling the new InetClose() function with a handle returned from InetGet() will abort a download.
    • @InetGetActive - Calling the new InetGetInfo() function with no parameters returns a count of active downloads.
    • @InetGetBytesRead - Calling the new InetGetInfo() function with a handle returned from InetGet()will return the bytes read (and more) for a download.
  • The FtpBinaryMode option set with AutoItSetOption() has been removed. Now InetGet() takes a flag to specify the transfer mode.
  • The URLDownloadToFile() alias for InetGet() has been removed.
  • AdlibEnable() and AdlibDisable() are deprecated. See the new functions AdlibRegister() and AdlibUnRegister().
  • OnAutoItStart() is deprecated. See the new pre-processor statement #OnAutoItStartRegister.
  • OnAutoItExit() is deprecated. See the new functions OnAutoItExitRegister() and OnAutoItExitUnregister().
  • The AutoItSetOption() option OnExitFunc has been removed. See the new functions OnAutoItExitRegister() and OnAutoItExitUnregister().
UDFs:

  • The last optional parameter for _StringBetween() has been removed.
  • The arguments for _StringAddThousandsSep() have changed.
It is important that you update any script that uses InetGet() in the background to properly close the handle. In a long running script that does multiple downloads, you will eventually crash out if you do not close the handles. Also, please rigorously test all the new Inet stuff especially multiple simultaneous downloads. I did my own tests, of course, but I was under a huge time crunch to get this done by today so there is about a 99% chance of bugs. Edited by Valik

_StringToHex()

_HexToString()

_StringReverse()

Have all been changed as well. They aren't script breaking... just faster than the older versions :).

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

Hello. I have noticed that the AdlibEnable function disappear in the documentation.

Is it a part of script breaking ?

Glad someone made these faster...I've never taken the time to go back and do that!

Oh fuck. Now why didn't the person who made that change actually tell me about it when I asked for all script-breaking changes? Pulling the documentation for a deprecated feature is a script-breaking change when we intend to remove the deprecated feature!

I don't get it, how does #OnAutoItStartRegister works? When I start the example I would expect to see 3 MsgBox but only the one from OnAutoItStart shows up?

The example is wrong! It has to be

#OnAutoItStartRegister "FuncName"

and not

#OnAutoItStartRegister("FuncName")

Just for my knowledge, what is the language subtlety or the reason to rename some function with register or unregister to the end of the name ?

Another thing about AdlibEnable. Why AdlibEnable disappear and not AdlidDesable ?

In the new help file, we have :

AdlibDisable

Disables the adlib functionality.

But which adlib functionality ? Edited by Tlem

Best Regards.Thierry

The new functions have new behavior not possible or available with the old syntax.

In the new help file, we have : But which adlib functionality ?

This was a mistake. AdlibDisable() should have had it's documentation pulled. I pulled it today (along with several other things that needed to be pulled). The next beta will not have documentation for any of the deprecated features. In short, don't use them.
