onexit equivalent to ensure code execution before exit

[vince100]

I'm working on a script to monitor and modify mouse cursor in a While loop.

How can I implement something like the "onexit" subroutine in AHK to ensure the mouse cursor is restored when the compiled script is terminated unexpectedly by Alt+F4 or by Task Manager?

Thanks

Hi and Welcome to the forums!

Did you see OnAutoItExitRegister()? Try that.

wow, that was fast.

Thank you very much. I am sure it is exactly what I needed.

I couldn't find the documentation of the function in the help file. Maybe my version is too old (3.3).

OnAutoItExit was replaced by OnAutoItExitRegister in version v3.3.2.0 according to the History in helpfile. If you really have that version you should upgrade, AutoIt is after all free so you have no reason not to

Edit: Download 3.3.6.1 here.

Also don't forget SciTE4AutoIt3. The SciTE included with AutoIt is only the "lite" version.
