Request a clarification in a function to play audio files from the compiled script

[nacerbaaziz]

Hello all
I found this function in the Internet
It is to play audio files from  the compiled script
I did not understand just one thing on this function

func play($name, $wait = 0)
local Const $SND_RESOURCE = 0x00040004
local Const $SND_ASYNC = 1
; Play the file - the script will pause as it sounds
if $wait = 0 then
DllCall("winmm.dll", "int", "PlaySound", "str", $name, "hwnd", 0, "int", BitOR($SND_RESOURCE, $SND_ASYNC))
else
DllCall("winmm.dll", "int", "PlaySound", "str", $name, "hwnd", 0, "int", $SND_RESOURCE)
endIf
return 1
endFunc

What I did not understand was this variable

local Const $SND_RESOURCE = 0x00040004

I know that this variable is contains the resource name
But what if I want to change the name of the resource what i'll do?
can i do that?
Thanks in advance

$SND_RESOURCE does not contain the resource name.  It is a named, magic number, constant that tells the PlaySound function that the value identifying the sound is a resource ID as opposed to an alias or a file name.  Your questions don't seem to be related to AutoIt.  If you want to know more about the Win32 API PlaySound() function, you can start here:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd743680(v=vs.85).aspx

Or

Below is link to the help file for AutoIt's _WinAPI_PlaySound() function, which is a wrapper for the Win32 API PlaySound function.

https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/libfunctions/_WinAPI_PlaySound.htm

 

If I'm wrong and your question is related to AutoIt, then please explain what it is, that relates to AutoIt, that you are having trouble understanding.
