My OnEvent UDF

[Denny577]

I created one too

It supports hotkeys, GUI events, and tray events.

You can add parameters to be passed to the function.

If you specify "Exit" as the function (which is an unavailable function name ) it calls Exit.

You can then define OnAutoItExit() to clean up or save settings

Leave the function parameter blank to remove the event.

I just realised it's undocumented... It does quite speak for itself though

Example:

#include <OnEvent.au3>

_HotKeySet("^{F1}", "_MyHotKeyFunc", "Hello, World!")
_HotKeySet("^{F2}", "_MyHotKeyFunc", "Param1, Param2")

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func _MyHotKeyFunc($Param1, $Param2)
    MsgBox(0, $Param1, $Param2)
    Exit
EndFunc

Advantages:

- Takes in a string containing the parameters delimited by commas, therefore not setting any limit to the amount of parameters (only limit is string length), and I prefer strings over arrays ^^

Few disadvantages/bugs:

- No ByRef support (yet)

- If a parameter contains a comma, the result will not be as expected (As demonstrated above. Using an array instead of a string for the parameters would solve this).

OnEvent.au3

Comments are always welcome.

What makes this different and or better from others and what does it add to AutoIt's native stuff?

Cheers,

I believe I forgot to mention that you can pass parameters to the function. It supports an (almost, there is a limit to string length ) unlimited amount of parameters for the function to be called. It does not support ByRef parameters (yet, I just thought of one way to do this ). I'll add some stuff to my post
