9:58 AM Ticket #814 (HttpSetProxy - proxy with credentials) updated by /dev/null
_INetGetSource() uses the api call InternetOpen(). From Inet.au3: Local $ai_IO = DllCall($h_DLL, 'int', 'InternetOpen', 'str', "AutoIt v3", 'int', 0, 'int', 0, 'int', 0, 'int', 0) HOWEVER: It does NOT set any proxy settings. All proxy related parameters are set to 0. See here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa385096(VS.85).aspx Conclusion: _InetGetSource does not support proxy usage. InetGet() is different!

10:03 AM Ticket #847 (Image not showing in GUI when called by _Timer_SetTimer) updated by J-Paul Mesnage
We cannot support interference between Basic AutoIt functions and all windows API called by DllCall(UDF). We can understand that a lot of time there is no conflict but in your case definitly there is one that I cannot figure out why. Internal tracing proof that Autoit is handling the receive message the same way, with or without the your timer addition. It would be better you use AdLib if you want some function interaction with a timer. don't mix. Remember AutoIt is not a multiThread application.

Your benchmarks? Because my simple benchmarks shows floating point division being nearly 4 times faster than integer division in a simple C++ program. This is... how did you get to be a dev??? You don't know how a/b is translated from C++ to ASM?!? C++ does the floating point operation, then it converts it to an integer... IT'S EVIDENT IT TAKES MORE TIME TO TRUNCATE IT! WOW!!! Try it in Assembler or Pascal! Did you ever touched anything than c++? Before the arithmetical coprocessor was invented, the main CPU had to crunch all the floating point arithmetics; even if we have the coprocessor now it's still slower to calculate useless digits…

Because my simple benchmarks shows floating point division being nearly 4 times faster than integer division in a simple C++ program. > 2) Precision is only needed in graphical/financial programs Wow, that's an incredibly short-sighted statement. > 3) Round(a/b) is slower... evidently Well, Round() isn't the right thing anyway. Try Int(). Either way, I find performance to be acceptable casting with Int(). If you don't, then chances are this isn't the right language for your task to begin with. > 4) Mod() is already implemented, but it looks incomplete without Div() Mod() is implemented as a function because we didn't make it an operator. Division has an operator, there's no reason to add a function for it. > 5) It doesn't break backward compatibility It doesn't add anything useful, either. Does casting to an int slow things down? Sure, but not enough to be an issue. Not until you get in the hundreds of thousands of calculations. But when you start getting that high, you're probably using the wrong language anyway.

Autoit3wrapper hasnt been develloped to support UNICODE scripts so I can imagine that the included Functions written to update the program resources aren't properly handling double byte characters. I have no plans at this moment to make all utilities UNICODE compliant as I have not that much time available and do not have a test setup to test this properly. If anybody feels like its something they would like to code this and submit it to me for updating the current AutoIt3Wrapper thats fine. So this is to me no bug but a feature request. Jos

Replying to anonymous: > I had a hunch I was going to get answer like this. Just bitter channeling of what seems to be rage or frustration. Spooky... Yes. Because you are an expert on me. You're such an astounding psych analyst that you can analyze someone you have never met, someone you know nothing about, all based on one post. Bravo. I assume the next generation of psycho analysts in training are currently familiarizing themselves with your volume of works in their studies? > As smart and superior as you might feel after those zings of yours, you still fail to give answer to a very simple hypothetic question. Maybe I don't give an answer because I don't think you're capable of understanding it? The answer is so searingly obvious to me that your inability to see it on your own coupled with all the lack of thought you've demonstrated so far haven't really led me to believe you can comprehend the answer. Further, you haven't asked a question (no question mark). What you do seem to want to know is unclear. Are you asking how to extend Lua with support for AutoIt functionality? Are you asking to extend AutoIt with embedded Lua? Finally, are you asking for Lua-like syntax in AutoIt? Your post mentions all three which does not seem to be the intent. Note, however, that I do not care and will not answer no matter what "question" you are asking. This is the wrong place to ask. > Now this might've been the wrong place to write about a feature that I knew would probably never be added, but... You have to admit this: The mature thing for you to do would've been to either duly answer the question or, if you didn't know the answer straight away, calmly point out that you're not familiar enough to subject in hand to give an answer without wasting time investigating it. Decending to level of personal insults hardly helps anyone, it's merely a waste of time. So you wish to talk about maturity and descent to the level of personal insults while in the previous breath you were analyzing me and determining why I'm being a prick to you? There's a word for that: hypocrisy. I'm being a prick because you won't/can't do critical thinking on your own so you ask others to do it for you. You also want to talk about wasting time but you posted a feature request you knew would never be implemented on our issue tracker. It's good to see people are reading WikiStart. Accusing me of wasting time, indeed. > As for my question/"suggestion", please do forget it. Like I pointed out, I asked it out of pure interest, in pursuit for information. Maybe I didn't quite think trough in which section of autoitscript.com to place this question thus giving the impression I'm acctually wanting something more than information. But I have to say, you gave the impression of either despiting the less tech-savvy and thinking you're above them or being really offended by my post. If it's the latter, I'd like to appologize. Then I am giving off the correct impression - sort of. Think of it more as indifference with temporary disdain. I am indifferent to people that aren't tech-savvy but try to pretend they are. I am indifferent to people who can't apply critical thinking skills to think about something before they open their word-hole and let stupidity tumble forth. I learned a long time ago to stop and think and pay attention to what I'm doing. Anybody not thinking at a basic, rational level is beneath those who are. As for forgetting this? I already had the moment I navigated away from this page - until you posted again. It's hard to forget about something that won't go away, though.

Rejected: Replying to anonymous: > Adding Lua as an alternative syntax or converting AutoIt features into a Lua API, whichever the techtical term here would be. This is probably an out-of-question suggestion due to fact it'd only benefit few. Even so, please refrain from being arrogant and try to give a smart answer to a (probably) stupid suggestion. Why? Why shouldn't you get a smart answer to a request you obviously put absolutely no thought into? To say this is a stupid suggestion is grossly underestimating just how stupid it really is. > I've heard that Lua scripting engine is pretty easy to add to a software. Out of pure interest, I'd like to hear what are the possible cons and difficulties here, how much work would this take and any other thoughts you have. In case you didn't notice, AutoIt is a language. So why would we go out of our way to embed another language to our language? It makes no sense. If Lua is so much better that you prefer it to AutoIt... use Lua. We won't be hurt, really.

As in the general help forums questions upon recursion show up time by time I think others would be happy with such features -- like I would ;) It could be in a separate include file, e.g. <filerecursion.au3>, then there wouldn't be an impact to the size of file.au3 or array.au3.

7:37 PM Ticket #838 (Better COM error handling.) updated by Valik
I will not add temporary code to solve a problem when I know it's not the right solution. Things either get fixed or they don't. I despise band-aids like what you describe.
3:17 PM Ticket #838 (Better COM error handling.) updated by PsaltyDS
Well, if it's that grand a project, it implies a long time frame to do it. In the short term, given the constraints of the current system, the UDF writers referenced (eltorro and Dale) have done what they can. Both UDFs check if a handler already exists and avoid replacing it if it does. The problem for Dale in IE.au3 is that he has a function he knows will produce a COM error event and wants to silently sink it. For him to temporarily replace the handler, he would have to release it and put it back afterwards, but has no way to do so because there is no way to know what variable name held the reference. If all the UDF writers were encouraged to use $oAutoItCOMError or some logical common name, then they would be able to cooperate with each other. In IE.au3, Dale would then be able to save the old handler function name, release $oAutoItCOMError, apply his own temporary handler, then restore the old one to the same object variable name. This is not better than rewriting the whole thing to make it "right", but it could be implemented with just some verbiage in the help file and few PMs to the most common UDF writers. I don't even know if it makes sense in this context, but my wishful-thinking idea was that the special global variable $oAutoItCOMError would be a sort of ByRef itself so that $oAutoItCOMError = 0 would release the previous handler variable, no matter what it had been named, and $oAuotItCOMError = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error", $sOldErrorHandler) would restore the old reference too (i.e. $oXMLMyError).
12:55 AM Ticket #838 (Better COM error handling.) updated by Valik
Ehh, that's not the solution. The real problem is that it uses a global variable in the first place. The object should be passed as a parameter to the called function. Storing the object returned from ObjEvent() should be optional only if you want to unregister the event. That leads me to... The whole system is flawed, honestly. It should be possible to register and unregister events. It should not require global variables. The return value should really be a pseudo-handle useful only to the unregister function. I'm not sure what to do about multiple events being registered to AutoIt.Error. It should probably call all registered handlers. In short, I think the whole ObjEvent system needs rewritten to add two new functions and drastically altered behavior to be more logical. It's certainly an issue and I'll leave this open so that it's on the todo list.

9:22 PM Ticket #837 (FileFindFirstFile/NextFile feature request) updated by anonymous
Actually, I like your idea of using @extended to return 1 if a directory or 0 otherwise. It seems no matter what one is interested in, it must first be determined if it's a file or directory. I modified _FileListToArray, replacing the FileExists test with a DirGetSize, and then getting the file attributes only if indeed the path has subfolders. A very minor hit (DirGetSize is really fast) if the path does have folders, if not, it's twenty (20) times faster for a folder with only 500 files. I just like to see AutoIt knock the socks off the other scripting languages. :)

7:43 PM Ticket #837 (FileFindFirstFile/NextFile feature request) updated by Valik
It's a good request but there are two problems which build off one another. First, we could certainly return the numeric dwFileAttributes data via @extended but we shouldn't. It's a different way to get the same data FileGetAttrib() does but it's returned in a completely different format. That makes it inconsistent which is bad. The second problem is we can't convert it to a string like with FileGetAttrib() because @extended can only be a number. This could certainly be changed but then it would come with a much larger performance impact. Finally, an unrelated argument would be, "why file attributes"? I may be just as interested in getting the size as you are in getting the attributes so I may want that instead. Or the time could be returned as seconds since epoch. I'm not sure about using @extended to just return 1 if a directory and 0 otherwise.

No Bug: The current behavior is consistent with the move command on the command line. I don't think there is anything wrong with the current behavior, either.

You are not trying to move the source folder to the existing destination folder, you're trying to move the contents of the source folder to the existing destination folder. This a different operation than trying to rename or relocate a folder. There is no single operation that can do what you want though it is trivial to write a UDF to do it.
