Roswellr Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Im sure this question has been asked before, and I know im probably asking a bit too much from AutoIt. But is autoIt just run as scripting code or is it converted to machine code then compiled? Like for example the functions aren't stdcall or cdecl functions and you cant get the address of these functions correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compile precess means it creates "copy of Autoit3.exe" and adds encrypted your script to it which is at runtime executed.With Autoit you can't make DLL files so address of functions has no meaning in this case.

PsaltyDS Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 AutoIt is an Interpreter language. Although the syntax is totally different, the idea is much more like Perl that C. And like Perl, AutoIt can do calls to a COM object or a DLL. If that description doesn't cut it, peruse the Developer Chat part of the forum. Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...
