DllStructGetStruct() - new function

Reported by: Yashied Owned by:
Milestone: Component: AutoIt
Version: Severity: None
Keywords: Structure Cc:

Description

Is it possible to add a new function to retrieve the source "structure" string that was passed in DllStructCreate() when creating the structure? For example:

$tStruct = DllStructCreate('int;int;ptr')
$sStruct = DllStructGetStruct($tStruct)

; $sStruct contains "int;int;ptr"

Why and how would that be useful?
Be to the point now please.

Few days should have been enough time to think of something.

I believe this should be reconsidered.
I could find it useful for:

  • debugging
  • dynamic element casting of unknown structures, and dynamic changes/usage of partial or full structure
  • type lookup of structure properties

Plus many other dynamic use cases i properly cannot even imagine.
