How to add parameters into AhkThread ?

26 Mar 2018, 04:19

Code: Select all

threads:=[]
Loop 4
threads[A_Index]:=AhkThread("
(
	msgbox `% A_Args[1]
	msgbox `% A_Args[2]
	msgbox `% A_Args[3]

)", "1 2 %A_Index%")

ESC::
ExitAPP
I tried add parameter to AhkThread. A_Args[1], A_Args[2] work fine, but A_Args[3] not get A_Index value. Pls, Help me!

ahk v2 used to allow this syntax:

"1 2 %A_Index%"

but lexikos removed it. so you can no longer deference inside a quoted string, so you have to do it the same as in v1 as HotKeyIt showed

Noob question- i just started using AHK_H recently for its multithreading. I was curious about the usage of ("( )") and its function. If I had to guess, it seems similar to concatenate. Is this the sole method for going to a new line- making the code look all neat and crisp? I don't remember that being possible in normal AHK

thats the continuation section from ahk_l
though there are some differences in behaviour switching from v1 to v2
