I thought it acts directly on value directed to by the pointer, and since AHK owns the value and knows about it then it doesn't need to be freed. This is correct. DllCall("msvcrt\_wcsrev", "str", str, "CDecl str") It is not necessary to specify str for the return value, [ edit: see lexikos' correct...

This post is a follow up to Puzzle 11 In this puzzle we tried to recreate the numput/get functions. The accepted solution was made by lexikos, but before that jeeswg attemped a different approach which ultimately contained some errors. Jeeswg was given one point for a good effort and partial solutio...

The docs for WinTitle ahk_id seem to indicate that using an integer, "ahk_id " hwnd, or {hwnd:var} are all the same. It does not, in particular, DetectHiddenWindows affects whether the ahk_id criterion detects hidden top-level windows, but hidden controls are always detected. Hidden windows are alw...

I wrote n-dim

map and

array which might suit your needs. I believe I updated them for beta, but maybe not both or maybe not all the examples.

Cheers.

Regarding Puzzle 16. Emile HasKey has provided an excellent recursive solution and will be awarded one point for this. For two points the solution should be non-recursive. Working around the you may not call _unset from within _unset. rule by defining a method or other function which is then called ...

Send in your solution as a private message to me, so that everyone gets a chance to consider the problem before solutions are posted. Edit: This puzzle must not use changes made in beta 12 since these makes the unsetting part of the puzzle trivial :thumbup: Puzzle 16 - The unliner [/size] Puzzle de...

Why F? You need something since just enabling %% in qouted strings would be a breaking change now. I just thought of python f-strings, hence the f. surprising that _ seems uncommon as standalone syntax character _ is a valid variable name in AHK, you are free to do _ := '"' if you like. Cheers.

Still, there might be better solutions, eg, run F'notepad "%FilePath%"'.

Helgef

I would never use any of these in v2. I think q := "'" , and similar, is much more convenient and readable. I have used this occasionally. Does anyone have thoughts about A_Quote vs. A_DQ/A_SQ or alternatives? As a non-english native speaker, I can contribute with the perspective that the word "qout...

It is allowed, as your first example shows. Your code erroneously assumes that o will be freed before bar . But the order in which these are freed when the script exits is not documented, and shouln't be because there are better ways to handle it. You can either use another reference to the class ob...

Helgef

The class variable bar, has been freed the second time __delete is called, consequently it has no reference to the class object. Instead of hard coding the class name in your methods, I'd recommend you use a

class property.

Cheers.

for loop wrote: Closures which reference the variable (if local) are also unaffected and will see only the value it had outside the loop.

Cheers.

Helgef

In your code, (*)=>_v isn't a closure, but a func , which has a reference to the global variable _v . At any given time, it can only hold one value. You can either bind the value, eg, for v in [...] l.push (v=>v).bind(v) or get an actual closure, for v in [...] l.push (v=>()=>v)(v) I tried with "v_"...

Helgef

No, v2 isn't backwards compatible.

@SOTE, I genuinely just wonder why @submeg wants to covert 30000 lines of v1 code to v2.

Cheers.

behaviors by themselves still feel weird. 1) It is simlilar to, x:=1 msgbox x + (x:=2) ; 4 2) If the open-bracket is not preceded by a value (or a sub-expression which yields a value), it is interpreted as the beginning of an array literal. Consequently, if it is preceded by a value it is not an ar...

Helgef

The following types of sub-expressions override precedence/order of evaluation: Function call The function call is evaluated before the value of next in the lhs of the concatenation. Also there's a different issue with removing the parenthesis from the msgbox's array this is because there is no req...

Helgef

iseahound , I think this is the most sensible behaviour for line continuation . It is not clear what you expect, or wish should happen. I made an assumption that the first open parenthesis was for the MsgBox but apparently due to the space it is not. There must be no space between the function name...

@boiler, I do not think we are in a disagreement

Cheers.

i still use AHK Basic 1.0 for my main project

Excellent

I will never convert my working v1/c/python/whatever programs to v2.

Cheers.

Perhaps consider,

regex callout remarks wrote: PCRE is optimized to abort early in some cases if it can determine that a match is not possible. For all RegEx callouts to be called in such cases, it may be necessary to disable these optimizations by specifying (*NO_START_OPT) at the start of the pattern.
