why no array pointer

jugador · Monday at 07:44 PM

I don't know any other language except AutoIt, but I can still say that the AutoIt loop is slow.
So, why no array pointer in Autoit?
You can merge two SafeArrays (1D / 2D) using RtlMoveMemory,
which will be much faster compared to AutoIt’s _ArrayAdd.

Can anyone convert AutoIt’s _ArrayDelete to C and then to machine code?

AutoIt is great but, there are things that AutoIt was never meant for. Like a fast ..anything.

@jugador, do go and learn something else. That does not mean that you'll never code scripts again. It'll mean that you'll have more tools at your disposal

You may use structs and define in structs arrays. With struct arrays you can use the winapi memory functions.

@UEZ

you can create one dimensional or two dimensional safearray.

Local $1D_SafeArray = DllStructCreate( $tagSAFEARRAYBOUND)
Local $2D_SafeArray = DllStructCreate( $tagSAFEARRAYBOUND  & $tagSAFEARRAYBOUND)

Even though AutoIt does not provide array pointers, you can still get an array pointer by converting it to a SafeArray.
You don't need a loop to convert an array to a SafeArray and back to Array if you follow @LarsJ post.

@argumentum

It’s not easy to learn something new.

It sound like when you say, “go learn something else” — AutoIt was primarily designed for automation tasks like mouse clicking, and nothing more.
Maybe @trancexx, @ProgAndy, @LarsJ, @Ward, and the rest who tried to take AutoIt beyond simple mouse clicks have wasted their time.

So, Is there any real value in using AutoIt for someone who already knows C, C++, Python......?

I can run AutoIt without any dependencies anywhere. It just runs. Nimble too. A GUI with AutoIt is easy.
If I had to do all the things I do in C++ it'd be slower and unforgiving for me. Python is here to stay, and I don't like Python.

I'll have to go through the advise I gave you myself for all the AI stuff that is floating around and my brain is never been all that great to start with, and adding aging to the pot don't make it easier either. Yet the advise is the same.

I feel you. I really do. But "it is what it is", for you, me, or anyone.

I guess you'd do it in ASM and use the FASM.
I'd use SQLite and call it a day. Not that I know SQL all that much, but am sure that whatever you're gonna use that big array for, could be done with SQLite, I think.

Each of these users have their unique stories with their love for AutoIt ( and am not exaggerating when I say "their love" for AutoIt ). Just can't put them all in the same pot.

There is also the forum life and the ungratefulness and aggravation they go though, that understandingly push them away from the forum.
So because they don't devote attention to the forum, don't mean that they never used AutoIt again. It just mean that they don't frequent the forum.

...just posted a script that solves my Hyper-V grrr!! :wacko2:
that I had for years and just yesterday decided to fix it by coding, what I had to do manually via the Hyper-V manager GUI. Quite annoying.

Would I have code it in anything other than AutoIt ?, not in a million years

I know how to merge / delete / insert element in DllStruct and safearray using RtlMoveMemory.
but using RtlMoveMemory like this with big size 2D Array cumbersome process.
that's why looking for machine code.

    Local $n = 20
    Local $tIntegers = DllStructCreate( "int[" & $n & "]" )
    Local $pIntegers = DllStructGetPtr( $tIntegers )

    For $i = 1 To $n
        DllStructSetData($tIntegers, 1, $i, $i)
    Next

    For $i = 1 To $n
        ConsoleWrite(": " & DllStructGetData($tIntegers, 1, $i) & @CRLF)
    Next

    ConsoleWrite(@CRLF & " < after delete of row from 6 to 16 > " & @CRLF)
    ;~~ Delet Row from 6 to 16

What I am taking is not how to create a SafeArray in AutoIt but to pass SafeArray pointer to C or from C
Finally managed something.....

#include "SafeArray.au3"
#include "Variant.au3"

__Example_A( )

Func __Example_A( )
    Local $no = 10
    Local $tsaBound = DllStructCreate( $tagSAFEARRAYBOUND )
    DllStructSetData( $tsaBound, "cElements", $no )
    DllStructSetData( $tsaBound, "lLbound", 0 )
    Local $psa = SafeArrayCreate( $VT_R8  , 1, $tsaBound )

    Local $psaData
    SafeArrayAccessData( $psa, $psaData )
    
    Local $Code = Binary('0x558BEC8B4D088B550CB80000000089024083020183C208E2F55DC20800')
    Local $iSize = BinaryLen($Code)
    Local $tCode = DllStructCreate('byte Code[' & $iSize & ']')
    DllStructSetData($tCode, 'Code', $Code)
    Local $aCall = DllCallAddress( "int", DllStructGetPtr($tCode), "int", $no, "ptr", $psaData )
    
    SafeArrayUnaccessData( $psa )
    
    Local $tStruct
    Local $tSafeArray = DllStructCreate( $tagSAFEARRAY, $psa )
    For $i = 0 To $no - 1
        $tStruct = DllStructCreate('int', DllStructGetData( $tSAFEARRAY, "pvData" ) + ( $i * 8))
        ConsoleWrite($i & ': ' & DllStructGetData($tStruct, 1) & @CRLF)
    Next
    SafeArrayDestroy($psa)
EndFunc

I assume the binary code is for x86 only.

yes it is for x86 only.
