Moderators Melba23 Posted January 24, 2009 Moderators Share Posted January 24, 2009 Good morning,I am successfully using GUIRegisterMsg($WM_NOTIFY, "MY_WM_NOTIFY") in part of my script, but as it is only needed for a very small portion which is not called very often, I wondered whether it would be good practice to "unregister" the function when it is not being used.The Help file and the forums do not seem to indicate that there would be a problem, but I thought I would ask anyway.If "unregistering" is a good idea, the next question is pretty easy: how do you do it? The obvious solution would be GUIRegisterMsg($WM_NOTIFY, "").Thanks in advance for any advice,M23 Any of my own code posted anywhere on the forum is available for use by others without any restriction of any kind Open spoiler to see my UDFs: Spoiler ArrayMultiColSort ---- Sort arrays on multiple columnsChooseFileFolder ---- Single and multiple selections from specified path treeview listingDate_Time_Convert -- Easily convert date/time formats, including the language usedExtMsgBox --------- A highly customisable replacement for MsgBoxGUIExtender -------- Extend and retract multiple sections within a GUIGUIFrame ---------- Subdivide GUIs into many adjustable framesGUIListViewEx ------- Insert, delete, move, drag, sort, edit and colour ListView itemsGUITreeViewEx ------ Check/clear parent and child checkboxes in a TreeViewMarquee ----------- Scrolling tickertape GUIsNoFocusLines ------- Remove the dotted focus lines from buttons, sliders, radios and checkboxesNotify ------------- Small notifications on the edge of the displayScrollbars ----------Automatically sized scrollbars with a single commandStringSize ---------- Automatically size controls to fit textToast -------------- Small GUIs which pop out of the notification area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The obvious solution would be GUIRegisterMsg($WM_NOTIFY, "").Thanks in advance for any advice,M23That really depends on the design flow of your project. You are the scripter that has to determine whether it's best to keep it only registered for the specific situations you want. Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Authenticity Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Yes, unregistering done this way but if this function get called more or less.. still, I don't see a good reason to take care of unregistring it if you handle the event properly.

Moderators Melba23 Posted January 24, 2009 Author Moderators Share Posted January 24, 2009 Thank you both for replying so promptly, As the event is (I hope :-) ) properly handled, I think I will leave the function registered - it could be called more then once while the script is running and I do not want to get into a multiple "register/unregister" situation. And I am pleasantly surprised that my guess at the "unregistering" syntax was correct - it does normally work like that!
