Administrators Jon Posted September 30, 2004 Author Administrators Posted September 30, 2004 Jon, I'm sure you were just waiting on somebody to ask this...How about setting up events for the built-in events like closing and minimizing? GuiSetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_ID, "function"), perhaps?Yeah, OK. Damn, I forget where I am up to now.

Administrators Jon Posted September 30, 2004 Author Administrators Posted September 30, 2004 Here's what I was thinking in more detail ... Tray Icon Interface You could do most of this in the unstable just before I added the multgui support and had to remove it all. I'm thinking that we should just set up a single GUI-controlled tray menu which is seperate from the windows.

I'm thinking that we should just set up a single GUI-controlled tray menu which is seperate from the windows.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>By "single GUI-controllled tray menu" .. do you mean that if I have two different scripts running then there will be only one tray menu for both? Or will each script have it's own menu?If there's room to vote, then I'd go with a distinct menu per script instance (which is modifiable at runtime .. etc ) .. if possible please.

this-is-me Posted September 30, 2004 Posted September 30, 2004 (edited) Anybody have any good info on learning c++? I asked Larry, but we must not be on speaking terms Edited September 30, 2004 by this-is-me Who else would I be?
Administrators Jon Posted September 30, 2004 Author Administrators Posted September 30, 2004 Anybody have any good info on learning c++? I asked Larry, but we must not be on speaking terms No idea really. I learnt it ages ago, and then again recently when I bought a C++ for dummies book. I think Valik learned it from scratch recently and mentioned a good book he had.

Valik Posted September 30, 2004 Posted September 30, 2004 I learned it by reading "The C++ Programming Language: Special Edition" by Bjarne Stroustrup (The author of C++, as well). I don't know if I'd recommend it for a starter book unless you have some experience with C. Its a bit much. It can be very technical.Mindview has two really good books by Bruce Eckel on C++. I've read both of those. They are free to download. Thinking in C++ Volume 1 & 2 are the names.CodeProject is a good site for finding all kinds of examples of stuff, although a lot of what is there is MFC-oriented.Those are the primary resources I learned C++ from with no prior programming experience.

I asked the question a few weeks ago and didn't get an answer and then I asked again and I saw you posted something else so I thought you just missed it. :"> Thanks for all the work...red
Administrators Jon Posted October 1, 2004 Author Administrators Posted October 1, 2004 Updated with DllCall. Slightly changed the order of the parameters in DllCall from the version released yesterday, it now is: DllCall("dll", "return type", "functionname", "type1", param1 ....)

Nutster Posted October 1, 2004 Posted October 1, 2004 (edited) What about putting all the GUI functionality into a DLL to reduce the size of AutoIt? Add #include <GUI> at the top of your code to use the GUI commands. The GUI.au3 file would have UDF's that just call the DLLCall functions are process any return values.Several big sections that do not get called by that many people could use this strategy to reduce the size and complexity of AutoIt.

No dice. And it would make script compiling reliant on a fileinstall.

Administrators Jon Posted October 4, 2004 Author Administrators Posted October 4, 2004 Updated: Tweaked the lexer so that the token used is smaller (not using a variant anymore) and also a "cache" of 256 lexed lines are stored - so in loops that fit in the cache each line does not have to be lexed again and again. This seems to have increased performance by about 20% for minimal coding effort I had to tweak a lot of code so please check for bugs (and timings to see if it is a worthwhile addition or not).
