=sinister= Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Is AutoItX.dll opensource? If so, does anyone know where I might find it? Also, AutoItX.dll does contain the source for AutoIt functions in C++, correct?
Moderators SmOke_N Posted August 21, 2008 Moderators Posted August 21, 2008 (edited) Is AutoItX.dll opensource? If so, does anyone know where I might find it?I don't remember it ever being open source (the dll that is).Edit:Well, not just compile and go source that is. Edited August 21, 2008 by SmOke_N Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
Valik Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Wouldn't it be kind of retarded if AutoIt was closed source but AutoItX was open-source given that they share the same code base?
=sinister= Posted August 21, 2008 Author Posted August 21, 2008 What is the difference between the "public" sourcecode (stickied) and the private source code?
=sinister= Posted August 21, 2008 Author Posted August 21, 2008 Oh I see, does the "public" version have the C++ source to autoit functions in it?
Valik Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 ...do you know what source code is?I'm seriously asking. What do you think the source would be if not for the... source?

=sinister= Posted August 21, 2008 Author Posted August 21, 2008 There has been a significant amount of changes to AutoIt in the past 3 years, what would be missing is more of the question.
Valik Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Nah, I'm amused by the stupidity of the question, actually.
NELyon Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 There has been a significant amount of changes to AutoIt in the past 3 years, what would be missing is more of the question.Well, 3 years is a pretty significant amount of time if you ask me

Valik Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Theres no need to be an ass.KentonBomb,uh what?There's no need to ask stupid questions you could answer yourself by downloading the source and seeing what it is if you truly don't know.As to what's missing? The last 3 years of development work which is more than just new features. What does it matter, anyway?
=sinister= Posted August 21, 2008 Author Posted August 21, 2008 Ok, thank you Valik, I appreciate your patience.

JSThePatriot Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Also, all the big changes that aren't features. Like re-writes of existing source code to more so optimize it, complete changes of the way things are done. I know this has happened a couple of times. There could also be more that has been done internally that we don't even know of. JS AutoIt Links File-String Hash Plugin Updated! 04-02-2008 Plugins have been discontinued. I just found out.

GEOSoft Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Since AutoIt is no longer open source then it might be a good idea to remove that old archived source code entirely and either modify or remove the sticky.

JSThePatriot Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Since AutoIt is no longer open source then it might be a good idea to remove that old archived source code entirely and either modify or remove the sticky.The only problem with that is that the source code is there so that Jon and the other developers can see potential in people that are really able to contribute considerably to the project. It's not there to "open source" the project. That's not even all the source for that version I don't believe. I am rather sure it's a slimmed down version to allow people to really be able to contribute if they have a "specialty" that would enhance the language.So I don't think removing it would really help that situation.JS AutoIt Links File-String Hash Plugin Updated! 04-02-2008 Plugins have been discontinued.
