Hi, 
Sorry I do not know if this is the correct way, but found a way how to install 
and get the Demo testsuite running on my Win7 x64 with python 2.9.4 amd64.
I do not know if this works 100% but the Demo Test do and I want to share my 
way, maybe it can help someone else.


Steps to get it running:
x64 support:
- Download and extract the Autoit Library
- Download the Autoit3.zip from 
https://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/downloads/
- copy the AutoItX3_x64.dll to .....\AutoItLibrary-1.1\3rdPartyTools\AutoIt\ 
folder

- edit setup.py and replace the "AutoItX3.dll" with "AutoIt3X_x64.dll"

or make it platform dependend:
~~~~~~~~~~~snip~~~~~~~~~~
    import platfrom
    if sys.argv[1].lower() == "install" :
        if os.name == "nt" :
            if platform.machine().endswith('AMD64'):
                dllFile = "AutoItX3_x64.dll"
            else:
                dllFile = "AutoItX3.dll"

            #
            # Install and register AutoItX
            #

            if os.path.isfile(os.path.join(get_python_lib(), "AutoItLibrary/lib/" + dllFile)) :
                print "Don't think we need to unregister the old one..."

            instDir = os.path.normpath(os.path.join(get_python_lib(), "AutoItLibrary/lib"))
            if not os.path.isdir(instDir) :
                os.makedirs(instDir)
            instFile = os.path.normpath(os.path.join(instDir, dllFile))
            shutil.copyfile("3rdPartyTools/AutoIt/"+ dllFile, instFile)
~~~~~~~~~~~snip~~~~~~~~~~


Use Replace PIL with Pillow:
- edit __init__.py, I edited both file in src and build, not sure if needed or  
why there are 2 copies.

- simply add "from PIL " before the "import ImageGrab"

~~~~~~~~~~~snip~~~~~~~~~~
try :
    from PIL import ImageGrab
~~~~~~~~~~~snip~~~~~~~~~~


And after pywin install, autoit setup was successful and the Demo Calculator 
Test  with "screecshot on fail" was running without a problem.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
I installed roboframework-autoitlibrary as follow:
1. I installed ActivePython-2.6.5.12-win32-x86.msi
2. I installed robotframework-2[1].1.3.win32.exe
3. I installed PIL-1.1.7.win32-py2.6.exe
4. I installed AutoItLibrary-1[1].1.zip.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When I execute the tests 'RunTests.bat', all tests cases are FAIL.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
- The installation hes been done on windows XP SP2.
- see attach log files .

Please provide any additional information below.
- The test of AutoIt is installed on 
D:\RobotFramework\Extensions\AutoItLibrary
- Robotframework is installed on C:\python26.

Comments in the library documentation do not provide necessary information
for the usage of the keywords.

Installed ActivePython, Robot Framework and AutoItLibrary on a virtual
machine with Windows 7 Ult x32. (See related bug on PIL installation
problem).  Tried to run the Calculator tests and got this:

Error in file
'C:\RobotFramework\Extensions\AutoItLibrary\tests\Calculator_Test_Cases.html'

in _GetGoodDispatch
   IDispatch = pythoncom.CoCreateInstance(IDispatch, None, clsctx,

My guess is that the win32com library is missing something that allows it
to work correctly in Windows 7.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.I install in this order :
   active python 2.5.5.7
   robotframework2.1.3
   autiItlibrary 1.0

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When I launch the test provided into the autoitlibrary (RunTests.bat), an 
error occur: No keyword with name 'Send' found; No keyword with name 'Win 
Activate' found.
I haven't found how these keyworg are defined.
I haven't error during the installation.
The test is installed on C:\Robotframework\Extensions\AutoItLibrary.
Robotframework is installed on D:\python25

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
ActivePython-2.5.5.7-win32-x86.msi
robotframework-2[1].1.3.win32.exe
AutoItLibrary-1[1].0.zip

Please provide any additional information below.

Thanks for your help.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.import AutoItLibrary in my remote library MyRemote.py
2.python MyRemote.py
3.pybot remote_tests.txt

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
expected output: run test case remote_tests.txt normally
actual output: AttributeError:'module' object has no attribute 'Empty'

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
AutoItLibrary 1.1 
Robot Framework 
Python 2.7.3
pywin32-217 2.7.1
Windows 7


Please provide any additional information below.
1 When I just import AutoItLibrary in python interactive mode, every thing is 
okay.
2 When I modify the file F8937E53-D444-4E71-9275-35B64210CC3Bx0x1x0.py which 
locates under win32com/gen_py, change "pythoncom.Empty" to "" like below
#defaultNamedOptArg=pythoncom.Empty
#defaultNamedNotOptArg=pythoncom.Empty
#defaultUnnamedArg=pythoncom.Empty
defaultNamedOptArg=""
defaultNamedNotOptArg=""
defaultUnnamedArg=""

It got work, but I don't get the root cause.

MyRemote.py
import os
import sys
from AutoItLibrary import *
class MyRemote():
    def __init__(self):
        print "init"

    def my_keyword(self):
                print "my keyword"
if __name__ == '__main__':
    from robotremoteserver import RobotRemoteServer
    RobotRemoteServer(MyRemote(), *sys.argv[1:])

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a virtual env
2. Install dependencies in virtual env
3. Install in virtualenv

Expected result: installation succeed

Current result: error is raised  "AutoItLibrary requires win32com. See 
http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/win32/."

Seen on 1.1

Problem is due to installation of pywin32 under virtualenv, win32com folder is 
not created under site-packages folder but in 
site-packages\pywin32....egg\win32com

Potential fix:
in setup.py:

replace (line 71)

            makepy = os.path.normpath(os.path.join(get_python_lib(), "win32com/client/makepy.py"))
            #
            # Make sure we have win32com installed
            #
            if not os.path.isfile(makepy) :
                print "AutoItLibrary requires win32com. See http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/win32/."
                sys.exit(2)

by

try:
                import win32com.client.makepy
                makepy = os.path.normpath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(win32com.client.makepy.__file__), 'makepy.py'))
                #makepy = os.path.normpath(os.path.join(get_python_lib(), "win32com/client/makepy.py"))
                #
                # Make sure we have win32com installed
                #


            except ImportError:
                print "AutoItLibrary requires win32com. See http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/win32/."
                sys.exit(2)


With this patch, win32com location is detected using python import module 
mechanism (no more hard coded values)

setup.py attached

Running the editor "Ride" from a non-admin user (unprivileged environment)
can not access the keywords from the search engine or the wizard to
complete the keyword.
Running pybot, sohw: No Keyword with name 'Process Close' , etc.

Only use:
- Get Active Window Image
- Get autoitversion
- Get screen Image
- Get version
- Run
- Wait for active Window
- Win wait
- Win wait active
- Win wait close

The installation of "PIL" requires user intervention to install
Not allowed the automation of Environments

Installed ActivePython, Robot Framework and AutoItLibrary on a virtual
machine with Windows 7 Ult x32. During the first-time PIL installation
several dialog boxes were displayed that, to me, indicated problems with
creating registry entries.  This is really a PIL installation issue and
will have to wait until PIL supports Windows 7.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Python 2.5 using Windows installer (only because Robot Windows 
installer expects this for some reason)
2.Install Python 2.6 using Windows installer
3. Run 'easy_install pil' for Python 2.6
4. Install Robot Framework using Windows installer
5. Run 'python setup.py install' from C:/temp/AutoItLibrary-1.0 (unzipped)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Please see attached file for full error message.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0 on Vista

Please provide any additional information below.

Looks like Autoit library is not able to identify List/ListBox components 
using their names.

I think it would be better, if library is able to identify these 
List/ListBox items using their names. Otherwise we have to follow some 
workarounds like keyboard navigation keys for highlighting the items and 
using "Space" key to select the items.

It's not possible to use the existing functions to update a combobox of a
.Net application. Not to retrieve the current value, or set a value.

See also on the Autoit forum:
http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=66803&st=0&p=496147&hl=Net
%20getcurrentselection&fromsearch=1&#entry496147

Solution on the forum (AutoIt syntax):
Func ComboBox_SelectString( $winTitle, $winText, $control, $option )
    Local $hWnd = ControlGetHandle( $winTitle, $winText, $control )
    Local $index = _GUICtrlComboBox_FindString( $hWnd, $option )

    If $index = -1 then
        ConsoleWrite( $option & " not found"    & @CRLF)
        SetError( 1 )
        Return False
    EndIf

    If $index = 0 then
      ; If the item is the first in the list, use hotkeys to navigate to it
        ControlSend( $winTitle, $winText, $hWnd, "^{PGUP}" )
    Else
      ; Select the item right before the target index, then send down
        _GUICtrlComboBox_SetCurSel($hWnd, $index - 1)
        ControlSend( $winTitle, $winText, $hWnd, "{DOWN}" )
    EndIf

    Return True
EndFunc

Problem here is that the _GUICtrlComboBox_x methods are not available
through the AutoItLibrary.
Can it be made available somehow ?

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Run RunTests.bat and see that tests are successful.
2. Restart.
3. RunTests.bat fails all tests.
4. In directory AutoItLibrary-1.1 run 'python setup.py install'.
5. RunTests.bat succeeds.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect RunTests.bat to succeed after a restart, but it fails.  In my own 
tests I see messages about AutoItLibrary keywords not found.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

AutoItLibraray 1.1 on Windows Server 2008 R2.

Please provide any additional information below.

I suspect that this is related to AMD64 platform in general, not specifically 
Windows Server 2008 R2.

In either case the installation creates the folder (even if the unit is
another system)

    C: \ RobotFramework \ Extensions \ AutoItLibrary

on your PC and puts various files into this directory folder.

Why not use?

%systemdriver%\RobotFramework\Extensions\AutoItLibrary

You do not get transparent windows capture.

A. What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Python 2.7.6 and Robot Framework 2.8.4 --> success
2. Install Python for Windows extensions: pywin32-219.win32-py2.7.exe
--> success
3. Download AutoIt_1.1, and extract to temp folder --> success
4. Open cmd by Administrator permission and go to AutoIt folder, and type 
"python setup.py  install" 

B. Expected output:

4. Install AutoIt without error

C. Actual result:

Please provide any additional information below.

Operating System: windows xp sp2 chinese version
AutoItLibrary: 1.1

I test the scene 'file download' on my web page.
I use SeleniumLibrary to click the download file button. Then windows 
dialog named "文件下载" shows and actived.
I use AutoItLibrary to click the save button which text is "保存(&S)" on 
the windows dialog as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------
Control Click   文件下载    ${EMPTY}    保存(&S)
---------------------------------------------------------
it does not work.
But i click another button which text is "取消" on the windows dialog as 
follows:
---------------------------------------------------------
Control Click   文件下载    ${EMPTY}    取消
---------------------------------------------------------
it works.

Why? The difference between the two cases is that one button text contains 
"&" character but other not.

Sometimes it is necessary to tweak AutoIt options such as window title match 
mode, therefore we need support for AutoItSetOption.

My version is here:

    def AutoItSetOption(self, Option, Value):
        """
        Set up AutoIt settings.
        Reference: 
        AutoItX.chm::/html/com_interface/methods/AutoItSetOption.htm
        """
        #print a message to log
        self._infoKW(self.AutoItSetOption, Option, Value)
        self._AutoIt.AutoItSetOption(str(Option), int(Value))


Thanks!

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I have added the AutoItLibrary folder which contains init,counter and Logger 
PY files inside robotframework -> lib folder
2. I have written the below test case and saved it as text file.
   *** Settings ***
Documentation   Start the Windows Calculator application and set the default 
settings that the rest of the tests expect. 
Library AutoItLibrary   server_host=http://localhost:4444


*** Test Cases ***
CalculatorTest
    Get Auto It Version
3. Running the above test case by using the below java command.

java -classpath 
/opt/rtview/testautomation/application/robotlib/robotframework-2.5.7.jar; 
org.robotframework.RobotFramework --variable BROWSER:*firefox --variable 
SELENIUM_SERVER_HOST:localhost --variable SELENIUM_SERVER_PORT:4444 --outputdir 
/opt/rtview/testautomation/application/robot 
opt/rtview/testautomation/application/robot/testexecution/calculator

Getting the following error:
No keyword with name 'Get Auto It Version' found.

This is the same way we have integrated the selenium library and it is working 
fine. Could you please help me in integrating the autoit library with 
Robotframe work. Please correct me if I am going in a wrong direction as I am 
new to this frame work.

[deleted issue]

I would like to see a version of this library that works with IronPython.

If we replace this line:

        self._AutoIt = win32com.client.Dispatch("AutoItX3.Control")

... with these lines:

        from System import Type, Activator
        self._AutoIt = Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetTypeFromProgID("AutoItX3.Control"))

... it at least allows the library to load. However, when I do that, none of 
the methods in the dll are being exposed as robot keywords so there must be a 
bit more to do.

Support for the latest AutoItX version released 16-Apr-10.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Python to a path with a space, e.g. "C:\Program Files\python27"
2. Execute python setup.py install


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect the install to complete successfully.  Instead I get this:

>python setup.py install
%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\regsvr32.exe /S C:\Program Files\Python27\Lib\site-package
s\AutoItLibrary\lib\AutoItX3.dll

It would be really nice if autoitlibrary was on pypi so it could be installed 
with pip

Trying to import AutoItLibrary shows stack trace:
 Initializing test library 'AutoItLibrary'
 with no arguments failed: com_error: (-2147221164, 'Class not registered', None, None)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Win 7 64 bit, Python 2.7 64 bit, pywin32 64 bit for 2.7 python
2. Try executing the tests in AutoItLibrary

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect it to work or give me an error that a "normal" user could use to solve 
the issue.

So what works:
Install 32 bit python and 32 bit version of pywin32
-- but the error message doesn't really tell this so I suggest that 
AutoItLibrary at least checks that it is running in a platform that it supports 
and instructs the user to do what is needed to get things working.

This problem has also been reported at:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19904619/error-while-installing-autoit-to-rob
ot-framework

My configuration is as follows:
Windows 7 x64 with all pre-requisite software installed

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Attempt to install autoit library as Administrator
2. Following error message is displayed:
error: could not create 'U:\': The system cannot find the path specified

The drive U is not mapped to any device.

How can I get around this problem?

RIDE does not recognize AutoItLibrary.
Install works fine on XP machines.
have attempted to get running on numerous Windows 7 machines but get the same 
error.  The provided calculator tests all fail (not that that is unexpected 
when it can't seem to locate the library).  The AutoItLibrary appears to have 
installed itself in the proper location in Python27.  However, it defaults to 
installing everything else on the H drive instead of C.  Rewrote the code 
install module to explicitly install on the C: drive and this made no 
difference.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
 windows 7, latest release of autoit 

Please provide any additional information below.
All other robot framework libraries function correctly.

The installation package contains only the installation of "PIL" for
version 2.5
Giving installation failure.
