Support for running AutoItX without all overloads

[GreatBarrier86]

Hi,

I tried out AutoItX today in my C# environment and i noticed that unlike native AutoIT development, this version requires that you use all the available overloads. For instance, in SciTE, you could just do WinWaitActive("Network Connections"), but in C#, i had to do AutoIT.WinWaitActive("NetworkConnections", "Network", 10"). The problem is, i dont need the last two overloads. Is there a way around this? or is this a limitation of C#?

It's the same in VBS/WSH., but I wouldn't say "... overload" to it.

Otherwise you can leave out "(", ")" and you can write different commands in one line,

what is especially helpfull for much sleep and send statements :-)

ReFran, overloading is a technique where multiple functions can share the same name but differ by parameters.

GreatBarrier86, the functions aren't actually overloaded, but have optional parameters. C# does not have a mechanism for optional parameters. Neither do COM objects, as far as I know.
