It started in the help area, to delay the OK button for X seconds but is a good example for a mix of _WinAPI_SetTimer(), _WinAPI_SetWindowsHookEx(), IsFunc(), FuncName() and a callback. ; same as MsgBox() + button to delay[ /options ] [+ X,Y,W,H ] _MsgBox_Extn(5, BitOR($MB_TOPMOST, $MB_ICONINFORMATION, $MB_OK), "My title", "My Message", 20) ;~ _MsgBox_Extn("0, 20, 100", BitOR($MB_TOPMOST, $MB_ICONINFORMATION, $MB_OKCANCEL), "My title", "My Message", 20) ;~ _MsgBox_Extn("5/1, 20, 100", BitOR($MB_TOPMOST, $MB_ICONINFORMATION, $MB_YESNO), "My title", "My Message", 20) ;~ _MsgBox_Extn("5 sec. / -4th button, 20, 100, 600, 300", BitOR($MB_TOPMOST, $MB_ICONINFORMATION, $MB_CANCELTRYCONTINUE, $MB_HELP), "My title", "My Message", 20) The use is simple ( to me that I wrote it ). Try the examples above and it'll be self evident. Is a MsgBox with an extra ( 1st ) parameter. All expected returns are the same. But in @error there is also the return value and in @extended the line number were something is wrong. I may start coding this way for myself too. Is like a UDF with training wheels. A fun example of the callback is: #include <MsgBox_Extn.au3> ; https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=211523 ConsoleWrite(@CRLF & "+++ _MsgBox_Extn() returned: $" & _MsgBox_Extn_ReturnMeaning(Example_CallBack(4)) & ' (' & @extended & ')' & @CRLF & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite('==========------------==========------------==========------------==========------------==========------------==========') ConsoleWrite(@CRLF & "+++ _MsgBox_Extn() returned: $" & _MsgBox_Extn_ReturnMeaning(Example_CallBack(1)) & ' (' & @extended & ')' & @CRLF & @CRLF) Func Example_CallBack($iTryButton) If _MsgBox_Extn_Version() < 5 Then Return SetError(1, 0, -2) Local $MsgText = 'Now this example will punish you' & @CR & 'by wasting 60 seconds of your life.' _MsgBox_Extn_SetCallBackFunc(_MyCallBack_TimerProc) If @error Then Return SetError(2, 0, -2) ConsoleWrite('+++ Using "' & FuncName(_MsgBox_Extn_SetCallBackFunc()) & '" as callback function.' & @CRLF) Local $iMisuseAtLineNumber, $iRet = _MsgBox_Extn("60/-" & $iTryButton, BitOR($MB_OKCANCEL, $MB_HELP), 'Example', $MsgText, 15) ; "-4" is wrong.

Hey everyone, I searched some hours for a way to use the function WaitForSingleObject not as a function the script has to wait for, but a function which calls a callback function when the event is signaled. I found a way with RegisterWaitForSingleObject but no AutoIt implemention, so I made one on my own, and now I want to share it with you guys! The only limitation by this implemention is that you are not able to use more than one callback at once. to avoid this, you could write a static array in the function which fills with the selfmade callback structs. If you find another way, let me know! Example: Hope you like it and find use for it! Greetz, Spider RegisterWaitForSingleObject.zip

Hello all, Back again it seems. I've hit a snag in the below script. I use this on win 7 and XP machines frequently and have just realized that sorting using column headers is not 'working' (is not updating listview; it looks like something is going on behind the scenes..) when clicked. Also this does not show the sorting arrow when using the callback sort functionality. So, to sum up, I am not seeing the arrow keys when clicking the column header to sort. And, it is not sorting the values in the $List1 ListView box on a win XP machine. #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <EditConstants.au3> #include <Constants.au3> #include <GUIListBox.au3> #include <GUIEdit.au3> #include <GuiListView.au3> #include <Array.au3> #include <ButtonConstants.au3> #include <ScrollBarConstants.au3> #include <GuiScrollBars.au3> Local $List1, $List2, $List3, $List4, $GUIhandle Local $Button19, $Button91, $ButtonAZ, $ButtonZA Local $hChild_1, $cLabel_1, $cLabel_2, $cLabel_3 GUI() Repaint() Local $bSysMsg = False Local $aRect = _GUICtrlListView_GetItemRect($List1, 0) $iDeltaY = $aRect[3] -

Hey folks, I just explored the new helpfile and found a new Keyword (dunno if its that new, but i never saw it before) called Volatile. It was made especally for CallBack and Com event functions, so I wanted to try that out. the advantage of this Keyword is, that you can run the Dll while you can do other things in autoit (AutoIt wont freeze/pause anymore while the dllcall is executed!) I made up a little example i want to share with you, the c source is compiled in MinGW, you need at least AutoIt 3.3.10.2. Hope you like it, would be interested in some comments Greetz, Spider testLibCallback.zip

Hi, I follow my project about the use of DirectInput with Autoit If i can create the interface correctly with the DirectInput8create Function I have a problem when i want to use Callback function to enum Devices. ("bad callee") i have Written this piece of code, but is it the the good syntax to callback the function _EnumJoystickProc? i have looked in this forum and Google, but no samples of code using callback and Objet, may be its no possible? Or there is a special syntax to callback function with autoit objet? Local $oDirectInput8 = ObjCreateInterface ( $sCLSID_DirectInput8 , $sIID_IDirectInput8 ,$dtagIDirectInput8 ) ; Create callback function Global $handle = DllCallbackRegister("_EnumJoystickProc", "BOOL", "ptr;ptr") $aa=$oDirectInput8.EnumDevices($DI8DEVCLASS_ALL,DllCallbackGetPtr($handle), 0, $DIEDFL_ATTACHEDONLY) ; MsgBox(0,hex($aa,8),$oDirectInput8) DllCallbackFree($handle) Exit Func _EnumJoystickProc($pDIinstance, $pContexte) MsgBox(0,"errrr","") Return $DIENUM_STOP EndFunc Regards Terry

I wanted to see if I could manage to use IAppVisibility (Win8) in one of my scripts. (it seems the name was changed in Release Preview but MSDN wasn't updated) It took some time but I learned to make tlb file and made definitions for GetAppVisibilityOnMonitor and IsLauncherVisible methods (working good as far as I can tell), but I would like Advise and Unadvise too if possible, but I don't know how... See definition on above link. Only example I found is some (too advanced for me to translate) c++ code. Here. But it compiles and runs fine at least. trancexx is doing a similar thing in maybe that can be used somehow? Anyone have a clue?

I know there's already several of these types of functions around the forum but there were some things I wanted to do different, so I wrote my own. In the tests I've done this appears to be working fine, but I'd appreciate a second look. The error returns and the first three parameters are the same as the vanilla _FileListToArray, but there are a couple new flags, and two new parameters. The new flags include: - enabling recursion (4) - disabling file count in element [0] (8) - enabling full path returns (16). The new parameters are: - $sCallback - this is the name of a function you want to run on each loop, it is passed an array with data relating to the current file search in the loop. If the callback function returns 0 then the item is processed normally. If it returns 1 the item is skipped (this can be used to skip entire folders being processed). If it returns -1 the entire function errors out with -1 and @extended is set to the callback function's @extended value. - $sCallbackUserParam - just an extra parameter that can be passed through to the callback function. Example with callback: #include <Array.au3> #include <_FileListToArrayRecursive.au3> Global $sWFile _FileListToArrayRecursive(@DesktopDir, '*', 4, '_Callback', 'Wfile') If @error = -1 And @extended = 42 Then MsgBox(0, '', 'You have a W file:' & @LF & $sWFile) Else MsgBox(0, '', 'No files/folders that start with W exist.') EndIf Global $aReadOnly = _FileListToArrayRecursive(@DesktopDir, '*', 1+4, '_Callback', 'readonly') Global $aEmpty = _FileListToArrayRecursive(@DesktopDir, '*', 1+4, '_Callback', 'empty') _ArrayDisplay($aReadOnly) _ArrayDisplay($aEmpty) Func _Callback($aParams) Switch $aParams[5] Case 'Wfile' If StringLeft($aParams[2], 1) == 'W' Then $sWFile = $aParams[1] & $aParams[2] Return SetExtended(42, -1) EndIf Case 'empty' If Not $aParams[3] Then If FileGetSize($aParams[0] & $aParams[1] & $aParams[2]) Then Return 1 EndIf Case 'readonly' If Not $aParams[3] Then If Not StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($aParams[0] & $aParams[1] & $aParams[2]), 'R') Then Return 1 EndIf EndSwitch EndFunc #include-once ; #FUNCTION# ==================================================================================================================== ; Name...........: _FileListToArrayRecursive ; Description ...: Lists files and/or folders in a specified path recursively ; Syntax.........: _FileListToArrayRecursive($sPath[, $sFilter = '*'[, $iFlag = 0[, $sCallback = ''[, $sCallbackUserParam = '' ] ] ] ] ) ; Parameters ....: $sPath - Path to search ; $sFilter - Optional: the filter to use, default is * ; $iFlag - Optional: specifies options about return, add flags together ; |$iFlag = 0 (Default) Return both files and folders ; |$iFlag = 1 Return files only ; |$iFlag = 2 Return folders only ; |$iFlag = 4 Search subfolders (Enable recursion) ; |$iFlag = 8 Make array 0-based (Disable return count in first element) ; |$iFlag = 16 Return full paths (default only returns from the search folder down) ; $sCallback - Optional: function to call on each loop.
