Yes. (I meant don't try it because there was no exit condition and no parameters for the PixelSearch... aka, it won't do anything)

Why? In this forum are dozens of great udfs provided as is. There is no problem in using a udf as is.

why would you not use SQL Developer for this? Oracle can already import Excel files. manipulating Oracle Forms is going to probably require you use UIAutomation UDFs in AutoIt. https://www.thatjeffsmith.com/archive/2012/04/how-to-import-from-excel-to-oracle-with-sql-developer/ there are ADO and other database UDFs as well on this Forum

I haven't looked and I don't use MySQL but most probably the various functions in this UDF deal with native AutoIt strings which are Unicode UTF16-LE. In case this is the cause, you can convert wide strings to any codepage (including double-byte types like Big5) and vice-versa with these functions: Func _StringToCodepage($sStr, $iCodepage = Default) If $iCodepage = Default Then $iCodepage = 65001 ; or Int(RegRead("HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nls\Codepage", "OEMCP")) Local $aResult = DllCall("kernel32.dll", "int", "WideCharToMultiByte", "uint", $iCodepage, "dword", 0, "wstr", $sStr, "int", StringLen($sStr), _ "ptr", 0, "int", 0, "ptr", 0, "ptr", 0) Local $tCP = DllStructCreate("char[" & $aResult[0] & "]") $aResult = DllCall("Kernel32.dll", "int", "WideCharToMultiByte", "uint", $iCodepage, "dword", 0, "wstr", $sStr, "int", StringLen($sStr), _ "struct*", $tCP, "int", $aResult[0], "ptr", 0, "ptr", 0) Return DllStructGetData($tCP, 1) EndFunc ;==>_StringToCodepage Func _CodepageToString($sCP, $iCodepage = Default) If $iCodepage = Default Then $iCodepage = 65001 ; or Int(RegRead("HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nls\Codepage", "OEMCP")) Local $tText = DllStructCreate("byte[" & StringLen($sCP) & "]") DllStructSetData($tText, 1, $sCP) Local $aResult = DllCall("kernel32.dll", "int", "MultiByteToWideChar", "uint", $iCodepage, "dword", 0, "struct*", $tText, "int", StringLen($sCP), _ "ptr", 0, "int", 0) Local $tWstr = DllStructCreate("wchar[" & $aResult[0] & "]") $aResult = DllCall("kernel32.dll", "int", "MultiByteToWideChar", "uint", $iCodepage, "dword", 0, "struct*", $tText, "int", StringLen($sCP), _ "struct*", $tWstr, "int", $aResult[0]) Return DllStructGetData($tWstr, 1) EndFunc ;==>_CodepageToString Use the codepage IDs defined there https://docs.microsoft.com/fr-fr/windows/win32/intl/code-page-identifiers For instance, Big5 is 950.

an udf I wrote some time ago may be handy for your goal. That udf allows you to run many separate tasks and collect results when are ready. a needed condition for the tasks is that those must be run detached from the main scipt and must allow I/O streams redirection. now, if your tasks are executed by autoit functions instead of external executables, you can still adopt a solution like this: create an "external" autoit script that accepts command line parameters, and returns results back to the caller (a sort of foreign AutoIt function callable from the main script, but runned detached). In this way you can run more instances of that function at a time and collect results while available. Here is how: from the main script use a statement similar to this $hPid = Run(@AutoItExe & ' Ext_Func.au3 Param1 ' & $Param2 & ' $Param3', "", @SW_HIDE, 0x2) ; (0x2) -> $STDOUT_CHILD = Provide a handle to the child's STDOUT stream where Ext_Func.au3 is the external script followed by parameters separated by spaces. In the external script you get parameters by the $CmdLine[] variable and you send results to the caller using the Consolewrite function. (this is performed automatically if you use the MultiTask.udf) Since an example is better than many words (especially if talked by a non-native speaker), here it is: to calculate some of the "hash" you need I've used this nice function by @Danyfirex and I've adapted it a bit so to be an "external" function. Save this function as hash_hmac.au3 in the folder along with your main script. ; by Danyfirex ; see here: https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/191500-hash-hmac/ If $CmdLine[0] < 3 Then Exit ; Read parameters Local $sXkey = $CmdLine[1] ; Key Local $sFile = $CmdLine[2] ; File Path Local $sHash = $CmdLine[3] ; hash algorithm If Not FileExists($sFile) Then Exit If Not StringInStr("|SHA512|SHA256|SHA1|SHA384|MD5|RIPEMD160|", '|' & $sHash & '|') Then Exit Local $hFile = FileOpen($sFile, 16) ; 16 -> $FO_BINARY (16) = Force binary mode Local $oHMAC = ObjCreate("System.Security.Cryptography.HMAC" & $sHash) $oHMAC.key = Binary($sXkey) ; Calculate hash hmac of the file Local $bHash = $oHMAC.ComputeHash_2(FileRead($hFile)) ConsoleWrite($bHash) ; send result to stdout I have also modified/added only small parts of your main script just to allow the use of the MultiTask.udf, leaving everything else unchanged. I leave you the control of your overall logic ... so save also this modified version of your Main script and run it (of course no need to say to also save the MultiTask.udf udf in your folder) Parts I've modified are enclosed between two comment lines like this: ; ========================================================================================================== To see it in action drop

No problem, glad to help, even if it's the slightly cheaty way No, it's better if the file is an exe, then you don't need to worry about executing vs opening the au3 file

why, oh, why. What's wrong with declaring on your PC a mailslot ?, why the workgroup ? On your PC you'd use "\\.\" and if you wanna broadcast to the workgroup, use the same everything but start with "\\*\", that is all

Global Const $sMailSlotName = "\\WORKGROUP\mailslot\Test" ... Looks ok for receiver.... How did you define the sender mailslot?

This is a script I banged out for a project where, for some reason, my client's anti-virus program detected any compiled script that used FileInstall() as infected. (They were using some program from China I was not familiar with, nor could I read the messages.) It creates an include file patterned somewhat after the SQLite.dll.au3 that is included with AutoIt. This makes the resulting EXE file a little larger than FileInstall() does (even after /striponly), but it solved my particular problem. It is intended to be compiled, and then drag/drop the binary file onto it to do the conversion. If the dropped file is a DLL file, it will add the DllOpen() and DllClose() commands to the startup and shutdown functions. InlineMe.au3 Const $blocksize = 512 Dim $fromfile, $fromname, $curpos, $tag, $tofile, $toname, $ext, $name If $CmdLine[0] = 0 Then Exit Else $fromname = $CmdLine[1] EndIf If Not FileExists($fromname) Then Exit $toname = $fromname & ".au3" $fromfile = StringToBinary(BinaryToString(FileRead($fromname))) $curpos = 0 $tofile = FileOpen($toname, 2) If $tofile = -1 Then Exit If StringInStr($fromname, ".")
