Processes communications

[antiufo]

Is there any way to make AutoIt3 processes communicate, eg. send messages, send variables or ask to call a function loaded in an other autoit3 process?

(This is because I use a script loaded when I switch the computer on, this script asks the users if start emule and the desktop tools, manages system optimizations, makes sure the internet connections are working, it starts an other script that registers hotkeys to make actions like start cmd.exe, open a registry key stored in the clipboards, type the date, launch programs I use often...)

run script2. see if it works.

script 1 - sends message

sleep(2000)


For $x = 1 To 10
    sleep(2000)
    ConsoleWrite($x & 'this is script1 '&@LF& 'Hello i am talking to u')
    
Next

ConsoleWrite($x & 'this is script1 '&@lf &'good bye')
oÝ÷ ÚÇ+v­æ²g¬±¨jëh×6
#include <Constants.au3>


$script1 = @ScriptDir & '\script1.au3'

$nPID = Run(@HomeDrive & '\Program Files\AutoIt3\autoit3.exe '& '"'& $script1 &'"' ,@WorkingDir,@SW_SHOW, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)

sleep(5000)


while ProcessExists($nPID)
    
    While 1
        
        $line = StdoutRead($nPID)
        If @error = -1 Then ExitLoop
        MsgBox(0, "STDOUT read:", $line)
        
        Sleep(10)
    Wend
    
    Sleep(100)
WEnd
