AutoIt Editor

[martin]

Where can I find the latest download link? I have probably missed something right under my nose here.

There's a zip link in the first post, that's what I've used, but the icons on the buttons are not correct for me, and the search doesn't work yet.

The link on the first page is the same as it was, nothing has changed.

What were you expecting to have changed?

I've got an update almost ready, thanks for heads up on that little bug.

Edit: already fixed in my version, I'll try post update by end of tomorrow

I can't get the editor to work with Beta 3.2.9.6. I previously had 3.2.9.3 with no problems. The script exits when it should execute the line

SendMessage($Sci, $SCI_APPENDTEXT, StringLen($sBuffer), $sBuffer, "int", "str")

which occurs in 2 places.

I isolated the line by adding consolewrite lines to the sendmessage function. I also added console write before and after the line quoted above. When the line should execute the function Sendmessage gets called 3 times somehow before the script exits with no error messages.

Other messages are fine. I've gone back to 3.2.9.3 to get away from the problem.

Does anyone else have the same problem?

What version of AutoIt are you using and were you running as Beta?

3.2.9.5 Update Log

SendMessage uses wparam and lparam, which were added as different calls to DLL Call, as well as pointers were changed, which the SendMessage include function uses. If you don't get it soon, I'll go play with it and get it working myself (since I use the SendMessage call myself as well, I also want to use the PostMessage too, but still need to figure that one out).

Some files are redefined with the newest beta when running the application.

It says 3.2.9.4 but the newest beta is 3.2.9.6 and that's the one I have problems with. The Const errors are simple to fix. Edited November 6, 2007 by martin

I have some kind of problem to run include files from this client.

The #include is looking for the <> directory or the script client directory "".

I do not want to include files under the <> or under the current dir "".

What to do?

Best regards.

Just use the full path to the include file like this

#include "c:\somewhere\myincludes\dogsandbones.au3"

[lsakizada]

Just use the full path to the include file like this

#include "c:\somewhere\myincludes\dogsandbones.au3"

Well I want to use the working directory dynamicly of the client and not specifying the full path.

Sorry that I was not that clear..

I want to do something like that (Dynamicly)

#include @WorkingDir & "\API.au3"

Edited November 18, 2007 by lsakizada

[BrettF]

Can't do it dynamically at last check...

EDIT: Except for

#include"./folder/file.au3"

Well I guess I must to write dynamicaly the au3 file to the current directory of the current running script before including it

to the client's script. This is not that nice solution isn't it?

What prevent the Autoit script developers from supporting dynamicaly include?

There is probably a good reason such as all the includes are 'included' before the defined constants can be referred to.

I would deal with it not by copying the include but by having a little prepare.au3 script. Say the include you want is

#include @WorkingDir & "\API.au3"

and it's in your script ABC.AU3

then in the prepare.au3 have

.
.
.
$AutoItProdexePath = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AutoIt v3\AutoIt","InstallDir");installDir for production
$AutoItBetaexePath = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AutoIt v3\AutoIt","betaInstallDir");installDir for beta
$text = Fileread("ABC.AU3")
stringreplace($Text, "@WorkingDir", '"' &  @WorkingDir & '"')
FileWrite("ABC.AU3",$Text)
Run( '"' & $AutoItProdexePath & '\AutoIt3.exe" ABC.au3')

So you can run prepare.au3 or whatever you call it, instead of ABC.AU3

If no error then what does crash mean?

When I run the program, it opens, then closes. Windows will then pop up with a message saying that the program was not responding and needed to close and that it was checking for a solution to the problem. Im using vista home basic. I dont know if that information is useful in a case like this, but anything might help.

Edit: I am using auto it v3.2.8.1.

Thank you Martin. I will implement it as suggested by you.

[lsakizada]

Can you please help to implement "Stop Executing" (ctrl + break) command as SCITE has?
