Help me understand macros, please

[Mbee]

I apologize if I'm being stupid, but I could find no general explanation of how AutoIt's macros are implemented.  For example, I can't tell if they're evaluated at compile/build time (i.e., while running Aut2Exe) or at run time?

I've seen the documentation where the macros and their values are described, but nothing general about them.

Thanks.

I think all are evaluated at run time. Some of them only once when the script is started (@CPUArch etc.), some more often (@error, @extended etc.)

Hey, thanks, water! That's what I figured, but as I said I can't find any general info on the topic.

You've helped me before and now once again, and I'm very grateful!

Glad to be of service
