Limitations
- AutoIt is single threaded which makes asynchronous programming, concurrency and parallelism (e.g. communications applications) extremely difficult.
(This can be worked around through the use of such things as multiple processes, Component Object Model, etc., but it would be much less onerous if a multithreading API was provided for use within the language itself or its libraries.)
- AutoIt applications sometimes get a false positive report from virus scanners using heuristics, because the application is a self extracting executable.
