Simple DllCall question

[Jex]

I'm trying learn DllCall function but i can't manage to use that simple function : http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms632678.aspx

Which type i need use for "BOOL" ?

$hwnd = "AutoIt"
$Test = DllCall("user32.dll", "", "CloseWindow", "hwnd", $hwnd)
MsgBox("", "", $Test)oÝ÷ Ù8Z¶z-ÂäØ­º¹

Again not work.

Windows Datatype = DllCall Type

BOOL = "int"

COLORREF = "int"

DWORD = "int"

HANDLE = "ptr"

HDC = "ptr"

HFILE = "int"

HFONT = "ptr"

HICON = "ptr"

HINSTANCE = "ptr"

HKEY = "ptr"

HMENU = "ptr"

HMODILE = "ptr"

HWND = "hwnd"

INT = "int"

LONG = "long"

LPARAM = "long"

LPCTSTR = "str" ("wstr" if a UNICODE function)

LPINT = "int_ptr"

LPLONG = "long_ptr"

UINT = "int"

ULONG = "long"

WPARAM = "int"

$hwnd = GUICreate ("Tester")

GUISetState ()
Sleep (1000)
MsgBox (0, "", "GUI Should Close after this message")
$Test = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "CloseWindow", "hwnd", $hwnd)
MsgBox("", "", $Test[0])

$hwnd = GUICreate ("Test")
GUISetState()
Sleep(1000)
DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "MoveWindow", "hwnd", $hwnd, "int", "300", "int", "250", "int", "550", "int", "500", "int", "")
Sleep(3000)

Working

But showing second window ?

By the way reason is why my first post script not work, I'm not used "WinGetHandle". ( Thanks Rasim )

DragDetect Function

The DragDetect function captures the mouse and tracks its movement until the user releases the left button, presses the ESC key, or moves the mouse outside the drag rectangle around the specified point. The width and height of the drag rectangle are specified by the SM_CXDRAG and SM_CYDRAG values returned by the GetSystemMetrics function.

Syntax

BOOL DragDetect(

HWND hwnd,

POINT pt

);

Parameters

hwnd

[in] Handle to the window receiving mouse input.

pt

[in] Initial position of the mouse, in screen coordinates. The function determines the coordinates of the drag rectangle by using this point.

Return Value

If the user moved the mouse outside of the drag rectangle while holding down the left button, the return value is nonzero.

If the user did not move the mouse outside of the drag rectangle while holding down the left button, the return value is zero.

$Test = GUICreate("Test")
GUISetState()
Do
    $Pos = MouseGetPos()
    $Test = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "DragDetect", "hwnd", $Test, "int", $Pos)
Until $Test <> 0

What i need write for POINT and pt ?

I think im writed completely wrong that script

What i need write for POINT and pt ?

If you're already browsing MSDN, why not find your answer there? POINT structure

DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "DragDetect", "hwnd", $Test, "long", $x, "long", $y)

[star2]

$hwnd = GUICreate ("Test")
GUISetState()
Sleep(1000)
DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "MoveWindow", "hwnd", $hwnd, "int", "300", "int", "250", "int", "550", "int", "500", "int",True)
Sleep(3000)

is this OK for you?

[Jex]

$hwnd = GUICreate ("Test")
GUISetState()
Sleep(1000)
DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "MoveWindow", "hwnd", $hwnd, "int", "300", "int", "250", "int", "550", "int", "500", "int",True)
Sleep(3000)

I'm opened this topic 47 days ago but still thanks.

I'm opened this topic 47 days ago but still thanks.

well I'm havong a problem like yours and I was searching the forum for answers and I found your topic and searched for answers for it in the msdn

and found that your missing parameter is only the [True] parameter, so I tried it and it worked

now my problem is that I want to move the GUI using the Dll function

just like using the WinMove() function in autoit

until now I'm getting the [MoveWindow] in the user32.dll , it ok but without animating the window

I want to slide the window with a sense of animation.

anyway if you have any ideas please don't be shy.

hope that your script is OK now.

The return is alway in an array:

$PID = Run("notepad.exe")
WinWait("Untitled - Notepad")
$hWin = WinGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad")
Sleep(2000)

$Test = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "MoveWindow", "hwnd", $hWin, "int", 200, "int", 200, "int", 200, "int", 200, "int", True)
MsgBox(64, "Result", "$Test = " & $Test[0])
Sleep(2000)

$Test = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "MoveWindow", "hwnd", $hWin, "int", 400, "int", 400, "int", 400, "int", 400, "int", True)
MsgBox(64, "Result", "$Test = " & $Test[0])
Sleep(2000)

$Test = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "CloseWindow", "hwnd", $hWin)
MsgBox(64, "Result", "$Test = " & $Test[0])

hy,

DragDetect function is correctly ?

Don't hijack this topic. New question = new topic.

[BrettF]

Technically you did hi-jack it. This topic was about the question from Jex. Not you. So take the advice. Create a new topic.

Gah!
