Re: LUA in PureBasic

Thanks jack, that looks useful, what's really bugging me is that I swear I had it working before although looking at the file dates that was early 2013 so I guess a lot has changed since then :)

I've become interested by lua again having worked on some embedded wifi stuff lately with nodemcu that ...

Re: LUA in PureBasic

Well, because I'm like a dog with a stick I tried a bit longer with this as it would be useful to get it working on windows.
With the stripped down code below I got closer but still no cigar, I suspect someone with a better knowledge of windows than I could get this going.

I tried with various ...

Re: LUA in PureBasic

Hello Guidebot,

That's not dumb at all, I tried myself on windows just now and the code as was didn't work (see changes above), for my vista windows box newer binaries were required and also the Visual C++ re-distributable packages for Visual Studio 2013. Even then I couldn't get the lua_tonumberx ...

Re: LUA in PureBasic

Hello Xanos,

Here is some tinkering I did a year or so ago which may help you, you don't necessarily need an include - you can just import the functions you want directly from the library. I made some (scant!) notes and the links are worth a read to.

Re: What happened to rwrappers repository by progi?

I'm not sure what happened to it, maybe father time :wink:
I have uploaded a 7zip archive I had to my Dropbox account.

EDIT: There we go, Progi1984 knew where it was :) archive removed.

Re: Alternative for ReceiveHTTPFile on Linux?

libcurl can also be a good way to go, not least because it will do https and all kinds of other handy url related stuff, you almost certainly have it installed already.

Re: Webgadget headers

Wireshark is the way to go, just use the simple capture all network card activity option and then apply the http filter to the results - it works well :D

Re: Yet another Regular Expression tester ... sorry(!)

I just copied and pasted it into PB on XP and on a Vista virtual machine and it seemed to work fine on both, so I don't know what to suggest.
Suggest to disable UNICODE. ;)

Requires some AllocateMemory( TextLength * SizeOf(Character) ) and more to work correctly with Unicode.

Thanks Danilo ...

Re: Yet another Regular Expression tester ... sorry(!)

whoops.....invalid memory access on start up: RegExTesterProcs.pb Procedure GetAllText(): *TextBuffer=AllocateMemory(TextLength + 1) :|

Strange, as that stands surely it's just a memory allocation so in itself can't be causing the problem, are you using the code above unedited?
