Referencing Functions between #includes

[VertigoRay 0]

I have two au3 files and I would like to backwards reference a function from an included file.

What do I mean by this? Simply stated, I have a script file 1.au3 and I am including 2.au3. I would like to reference the function a_test in 1.au3 from 2.au3 after it is included. How would I go about this?

Here is a quick example.

1.au3

#include "2.au3"

Func a_test()
    MsgBox(0, 'Test', 'It worked!')
EndFunc   ;==>a_testoÝ÷ Úȳz쥩ì·)^

Result of this is:

2.au3 : ERROR: a_test(): undefined function.

How do I reference a_test() so that the MsgBox pops up?

You call the function.

a_test()

You call the function.

a_test()

So basically I've got compile issues. Let me reinstall autoit and hope for the best. Thanks.

Why not have all of your functions in it's own script then include that in both of the seperate scripts. Still not certain if that's what you're looking for but that's the best I can figure from the code you have.

I think you have the "#include" backwards:

1.au3 should be

Func a_test()
   MsgBox(0,"test","It worked")
EndFunc

2.au3 should be

#include "1.au3"

a_test()

You call the function.

This was correct. I re-installed the compiler and it worked ... /shrug.

Cause I'm making a library of functions that will be included in many scripts. They will be managed by a set of functions in the main script that calls the library.

Includes were not backwards, but thank you for your time and response. Edited June 30, 2008 by VertigoRay
