Command Line Arguements?

[Excalibur]

how can i handle the following inside AutoIt:

bob.exe 1 3 5 7 9

so that inside the autoit exe i can get what was sent in command line? is there a way?

$CMDLine[0] has the number of arguments passed... And $CMDLine[n] has the arguments... So in your case, $CMDLine[2] would be the value 3. Nevermind, read this instead... Straight from the helpfile:

Command Line Parameters

The special array $CmdLine is initialized with the command line parameters passed in to your AutoIt script.  Note the scriptname is not classed as a parameter; get this information with @ScriptName instead.  A parameter that contains spaces must be surrounded by "double quotes".  Compiled scripts accept command line parameters in the same way.

$CmdLine[0] is number of parameters

$CmdLine[1] is param 1 (after the script name)

$CmdLine[2] is param 2 etc

...

$CmdLine[$CmdLine[0]] is one way to get the last parameter...

So if your script is run like this:

    AutoIt3.exe myscript.au3 param1 "this is another param"

$CmdLine[0] equals... 2

$CmdLine[1] equals... param1

$CmdLine[2] equals... this is another param

@ScriptName equals... myscript.au3

In addition to $CmdLine there is a variable called $CmdLineRaw that contains the entire command line unsplit, so for the above example:

$CmdLineRaw equals... myscript.au3 param1 "this is another param"
