I know adding multithreading in autoit won't happen anytime soon and i am ok with that with experience we learn to use 2, 3 event more .exe but how about running multiple autoit into 1 process , AutoitVirtualProcessSharedMemory = a array maybe all virtualprocess have access,i think autoit dev know better than me what todo here , a array of mixed value could be great , since the user can define a Global enum and easely keep track of meaning of each index $VP_index(used to maybe to close that thread) = AutoitCreateVirtualProcess() : this function will start a new autoit thread inside the same process and execute another copy of our script , like if we run it for the first time, so no worry about not safe in multithreading @VirtualProcessCount will be == to your thread count Created @VirtualProcess == current running thread if @VirtualProcess = 1 then thread1() if @VirtualProcess = 2 then thread2() func thread1() while 1 ;mutex while AutoitVirtualProcessSharedMemory[$_DB_COMMAND_IN] <> "" wend AutoitVirtualProcessSharedMemory[$_DB_COMMAND_IN] = "my db command" If AutoitVirtualProcessSharedMemory[$_DB_COMMAND_OUT] = "for me" Then DoSomething() EndIf wend endfunc func thread2() if AutoitVirtualProcessSharedMemory[$_DB_COMMAND_IN] <> "" then Local $command = AutoitVirtualProcessSharedMemory[$_DB_COMMAND_IN] AutoitVirtualProcessSharedMemory[$_DB_COMMAND_IN] = "" ;delete as soon as possible to free my mutex Local $result = MySQL($command) ;mutex While AutoitVirtualProcessSharedMemory[$_DB_COMMAND_OUT] <> "" WEnd AutoitVirtualProcessSharedMemory[$_DB_COMMAND_OUT] = $result endif endfunc Func AnotherFunction() EndFunc i hope i am making sence
