I tried to implement the code in this topic:
Firstly, i have no idea how these lines of code work but meanwhile i noticed that:
; Everytime autoit wants to call a method, get or set a property in a object it needs to go to ; IDispatch::GetIDsFromNames. This is our version of that function, note that by defining this ourselves ; we can fool autoit to believe that the object supports a lot of different properties/methods. Func __IDispatch_GetIDsFromNames($pSelf, $riid, $rgszNames, $cNames, $lcid, $rgDispId) ... EndFunc The problem is i ran into is that some object calls didn't go through IDispatch::GetIDsFromNames.
Here is the code to replicate what i'm mentioning:
I followed the example in the topic and tried to do the same thing with method .Documents (line 193) and .Open (line 194) but didn't get the same result because .Documents was being passed through __IDispatch_GetIDsFromNames while .Open didn't.
$Au3_CallByName = 'Documents' Local $oDoc = $oAppl.Au3_CallByName $Au3_CallByName = 'Open' $oDoc = $oDoc.Au3_CallByName($sFilePath, $bConfirmConversions, $bReadOnly, $bAddToRecentFiles, $sOpenPassword, "", $bRevert, $sWritePassword, "", $iFormat) Console outputs:
==> The requested action with this object has failed.: $oDoc = $oDoc.Au3_CallByName($sFilePath, $bConfirmConversions, $bReadOnly, $bAddToRecentFiles, $sOpenPassword, "", $bRevert, $sWritePassword, "", $iFormat) $oDoc = $oDoc^ ERROR Is there any workarounds to solve this?

Thank you!

Hi there,
while I created an example script to generate and execute a function during runtime, I stumbled across a neat way to share data between running autoit scripts.
This is done using the amazing magic of  AutoItObject_Internal . (You'll need at least Version 3.0.0 of AutoItObject_Internal)
Using this UDF, you can create a shared data storage, basically an empty "AutoitObject_Internal-"Object which you can then use to write / read data Inline. no set/get methods, just
#include "AutoItSharedData.au3" $oShare = _AutoIt_SharedData_CreateOrAttach("MyCustomID") $oShare.some_data = 'foo' and you're done. any other script accessing this data will have to do:
#include "AutoItSharedData.au3" $oShare = _AutoIt_SharedData_CreateOrAttach("MyCustomID") ConsoleWrite($oShare.some_data & @LF)  
Basically it's Larsj's Implementing IRunningObjectTable Interface, but you dont have a Dictionary, but an IDIspatch Object instead.
There are already a bunch of IPC options available - and this is another one.
AutoItSharedData.au3
 
Example Script 1
 
Example Script 2
Output: 
To test: run Example Script 1, Then run example Script 2.. or the other way around.
Example Script 3
Example_sharedata3.au3
Example_sharedata3_Controlsend.au3
Example_sharedata3_Tooltip.au3
To test: run Example_sharedata3.au3.
Output: 
 
 Example SharedData4:
Output: 
/Edit: Please note that there's a limitation with the Running object table :
The Script accessing a variable first, will be the "server" for this variable. This means, access to that variable from other scripts should only be possible, as long the "server" script is running! Use appropriate Object Error handlers in case you don't want the surviving "clients" to crash.
Feedback and/or improvements appreciated
 
changelog
version 2.0
Removed need for AutoItObject, as AutoItObject_Internal now comes with ROT support Added UDF Header Fixed typo on "#include AutoItObjectInternal.au3" -> "#include AutoItObject_Internal.au3" Added ObjGet() after registering the object fails (in case 2 programs tried to register the same ID simultaneously) Updated Examples & zip archive. Cheers,

hello autoit team
please
i tried to create a SPVoice object 
when i create the object and tried to use this function SetAlertBoundary
it gave me an error
please where is the problem?
here is the code

Hi AutoIt Programmers!

I've seen a code that gives Name of Group by writing it's group's SID, but this one response very slower than Windows Command-Line WMIC
 
Func _GetLocalGroupName($sSID = 'S-1-5-18') $objWMIService = ObjGet ("winmgmts:\\" & @ComputerName & "\root\cimv2") $colItems = $objWMIService.ExecQuery('SELECT Name FROM Win32_Group where SID="' & $sSID & '"') For $GroupNames in $colItems MsgBox (0,"",$GroupNames.Name) ExitLoop Next EndFunc I don't want call and use any third-party programs even CMD, i just want use from Windows API, netapi32.dll or AutoIt Functions (Standalone).
Do you have any idea to improve speed/performance of this code? I'll happy of your comments

This script used to work on an older version of AutoIT. Currently I am running AutoIT v3.3.14.5 and it's failing.
