GUIImageList_AddIcon: example in help doesn't work for me

[c.haslam]

It fails by showing an Errpr dialog box "GUIImageList_AddIcon -1" at the line:

_GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @SystemDir & "\shell32.dll", 110)

Any clues why?

Hi seems odd,

I'm using Win7 x64 & XP x86, AutoIt 3.3.0.0 & beta 3.3.1.1 and _GUIImageList_AddIcon() example from either autoit help file is working fine here when running form Scite v1.78.

What are the other factors on your end?

On my WinXP SP2 (32bit) with Autoit 3.2.12.1 and Autoit 3.3.1.1 it works fine.

Try _GUIImageList_ReplaceIcon() and check the passing parameters when calling _GUIImageList_Create().

My point was that the example script doesn't run on my Win 2000 SP4. I was wondering whether the problem was my particular installation, or a general problem with people running W2KSP4. Neither of those who posted are using Win2K, so I don't have an asnwer to the question.

AutoIt still supports Win2Ksp4, so the examples should run on it. If anyone using SP4 had said "sure, it works on my machine", I would know that my installation is defective (and I would become silent). If others had a problem with this example, I would seek to have the example changed to one that runs on Win2K.
