AutoIt3Wrapper is a Wrapper application for AutoIt3 and Aut2Exe

Compile an AutoIt3 script:

AutoIt3Wrapper is a AutoIt3/AUT2EXE wrapper program that can compile your script with all settings as save in an INI file or defined in your Script source with Compiler Directives, update the Resource information like Comment, Description, Legal Copyright and Program version of the target executable. Its is now also used to enable you to: AU3Check and/or Run a Autoit3 script with the latest Production or Beta version.

AutoIt3Wrapper will perform the following tasks for you when wrapping Aut2Exe (Compile):

Read the command line options which are supported by aut2exe.
Read any info from the Scriptname.Ini file as defaults if its available.
Read the input script searching for compiler directives. If found, it will override any other setting.
Run program(s) defined by the Run_Before directive(s).
Run Tylo's AU3Check program (Optional) to verify the script. When errors are encountered you will be prompted if you want to continue or stop the compile process.
Run Obfuscator (Optional) after the Obfuscated source will also be checked by AU3Check.
Run aut2exe.exe, return code reported to console.
Run RC.exe (optional) return code reported to console.
Run reshack.exe (optional) return code reported to console.
Run UPX when requested.
Run program(s) defined by the Run_After directive(s).

AutoIt3Wrapper will perform the following tasks for you when wrapping AutoIt3 (Run):

Run Tylo's AU3Check program (Optional) to verify the script. When errors are encountered you will be prompted if you want to continue or stop the compile process.
Run AutoIt3.exe with your script source, return code reported to console.

To set the defaults for the different functions you can copy AutoIt3Wrapper.ini.example to AutoIt3Wrapper.ini and make the changes you like for defaults for all options.

Using the Compiler Directives.

You can define the Compiler Directives in your script and have AutoIt3Wrapper.exe compile it with these settings:
