What is wrong with the INI functions built into AutoIt, such as IniRead()?

Can you help me to correct this error please

There is an error in the function's regular expression.  Right before the last double quote, there is an erroneous right paren ("(").  The corrected function below has the original line commented out and the corrected line right below it.

Func _IniReadFromString($szInput, $szSection, $szKey, $Default)
    $szInput = StringStripCR($szInput)
;~  Local $aRegMl = StringRegExp($szInput, "\[" & __StringEscapeRegExp($szSection) & "\]\n+(?:[^\[].*?=.*\n)*" & __StringEscapeRegExp($szKey) & "=(.*)\n?(", 3)
    Local $aRegMl = StringRegExp($szInput, "\[" & __StringEscapeRegExp($szSection) & "\]\n+(?:[^\[].*?=.*\n)*" & __StringEscapeRegExp($szKey) & "=(.*)\n?", 3)
    If @error Then Return SetError(1, 0, $Default) ; key not found

    Return $aRegMl[0]
EndFunc ;==>_IniReadFromString

 

By the way, think twice before replying in all caps when someone is trying to help you.  The next time you do it, don't be surprised if you get no replies.
