ImageSearch is giving me an error message when I try to compile

[computergroove]

I am trying to integrate imagesearch into a script I am making. When I try to compile the script I get the following inside imagesearch.au3 under all 4 of the imagesearch.au3 defined functions:

"Error: Missing separator character before keyword"

I tried the beta version of Autoit and it is doing the same thing. I am using the x32 version of the imagesearch.au3 found here - https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiUmsrEsLzPAhWs7YMKHS9MClQQFggfMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.autoitscript.com%2Fforum%2Ftopic%2F148005-imagesearch-usage-explanation%2F&usg=AFQjCNFwpFnZMxVK9H4cDASRnjiB-65gOw&bvm=bv.134495766,d.amc

I have put the imagesearchDLL.dll in both the includes directory and the system32 directory. I am using x64 Windows 8.1 Pro. I cant see anything wrong. Please help.

Hello. Check in function's  byref parameter. make sure you set a space after every comma.

 

Func _TestError(ByRef $a,ByRef $b)

EndFunc


Func _TestNoError(ByRef $a, ByRef $b)

EndFunc

That worked. Here it is the imagesearch.au3 modified code that worked.
