PureBin2Data

Post by ts-soft »

What does this tool?
- converts any binary file (up to 64MB) into a PureBasic DataSection
- compresses the DataSection (selectable JCalG1 or BriefLZ)

Why?
- smaller filesize
- sharing complete sourcecode
- posting source in boards
- makes it more difficult to steal own picture- and/or soundfiles

Wow, very nice but I haven't tried it yet, just sounds good. So if this is possible... then wouldn't it be possible to load a binary file into memory, using the same methods, somewhat? Cheers and I'll try it soon. ;)

EDIT
Let me refrase that. I see your program uses memory for it to work. My question is, would it be possible to run a binary that has been already included into an exe from memory using the method you use.

(example) Compile your source with a binary file using the include function. Then at runtime, this included binary gets converted to data to be ran from memory.

I asked this question some time back on the forum but I don't think anyone knew how at the time. Now seeing your post, it seems possible.

thx,
to use a exe file from DataSection, you must write the unpacked Data to harddisk. i have no way to run exe from memory.

This is the same function as includebinary, only in DataSection.

that is POC of how to load exe to directly to memory from another exe where its inside... |:
there you go...


edit: if someone manages to make it work without compiling the POC as .obj and using dirty little tricks to include it into PB code, I would like to see the converted code :)

looks good.

However, the purearea download page has gone into a refresh frenzy. :D

It won't give the file (to Mozilla) and the "here" link is empty: {A href=""}

Any other link?

Thanks.

This tool is really great!!

Ts-soft, when selecting cmpression method it simply doesn't obey. I think it reads from the .ini file instead of gadgets.

Select compression before Drop the File on GUI.
In Shell you can give 2 Parameters. With 1 Parameters, it's use the last GUI selection (stored in ini-file).

See if you can get this built-in to PB .. It can be a valuable tool.

Yes! I think so!

Ts-soft, another suggestion: Would be good to be able to choose between leave the data as HEX or DEC, :)
