ahkExecuteLine

Exported function that executes script from given line pointer.

OutputVar := ahkExecuteLine(LinePointer, Mode, Wait)

Command  Example: DllCall "AutoHotkey.dll\ahkExecuteLine", "PTR", LinePointer, "UInt", 0, "UInt", 0, "PTR"
                  DllCall "AutoHotkey.exe\ahkExecuteLine", "PTR", LinePointer, "UInt", 0, "UInt", 0, "PTR"

Function Example: LinePointer := DllCall("AutoHotkey.dll\ahkExecuteLine", "PTR", LinePointer, "UInt", 0, "UInt", 0, "PTR")
                  VarPointer := DllCall("AutoHotkey.exe\ahkExecuteLine", "PTR", LinePointer, "UInt", 0, "UInt", 0, "PTR")

Parameters

OutputVar

The name of variable in which to store the pointer to next line.

LinePointer

Pointer to Line to start execution from. NULL / false / 0 can be used to get pointer to first line.

Mode

0 - will not execute and return a pointer to next line only.
1 - UNTIL_RETURN
2 - UNTIL_BLOCK_END
3 - ONLY_ONE_LINE

Wait

1 (true) if you want to wait until execution finishes, else FALSE / NULL / 0.

Examples

MsgBox first Line %A_TickCount%
dll:=AhkThread("#Persistent`nMyVar:=`"Hello World!`"`nReturn`nMsgBox `% MyVar") ; start a new thread and set MyVar variable.
hLine:=0
Loop 3 ; Retrieve pointer to 4-th executable line.
 hLine := dll.ahkExecuteLine[hLine]
dll.ahkExecuteLine[hLine,1,1] ; execute from the 4-th line
