Set window class of compiled script

[willichan]

An application I use has a very simplistic addon module interface. It looks for a window class with the same name as the module executable (including the .exe), and sends windows messages to it.

I would like to write a module using AutoIT, but I cannot figure out how to set the window class for the compiled script. It this even possible?

Thanks to anyone that can help.

I don't think you can change the class of a window at run-time but you CAN set the class name.

Instead of using AutoIt's built-in function GUICreate you could use the UDF _WinAPI_CreateWindowEx which allows you to set, among other things, the class of the main GUI.
