Re: PB 6.30 b6 - ReadStringFormat() seemingly unreliable?

and wrote a function that finds the format of a file either on the first 1024 bytes or on its entirety
How about making it available for other users?

Re: Strange outpug from debug?

Thanks all!

In the end it was a "61 3F" instead of a "E4 00"... The file was send from a company located in Switzerland and they aren't really known for their usage of german special chars^^

Re: Strange outpug from debug?

Just a guess: Did you copy the path from somewhere into the clipboard and paste it into the IDE? What happens when you type
The guess is correct...

When I copy your "äöüÄÖÜ" here from the forum into the IDE, the output is correct, when I do the same with the path I posted, it is shown correctly ...

Re: Strange outpug from debug?

No it doesn't :mrgreen:

The string to output contains "ä" but the output doesn't display an "ä" but an "a" followed by an "n" with some dots above it

Strange outpug from debug?

Hi,

PureBasic v6.21 x64 (IDE), Compiler: v6.04 LTS x64

Code:

Code: Select all

Debug "D:\250807_Analyse_Bereinigung_Pfadlängen_Files.txt"
The .pb file is UTF-8 with BOM.

Re: COM interface: IFileOperation - Example?

@Thorium
Thanks for the hint but this won't be an option for me (even if it would work)

Why?
Adding the necessary manifest to my .exe isn't the problem but setting the registry value for
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem LongPathsEnabled
is something that can't be done ...

COM interface: IFileOperation - Example?

I want to move a folder from one volume to another volume into an overlong path (on Windows).

MoveFileEx_
and
SHFileOperation_

MoveFileEx_ can move files cross-volume (even into overlong paths) but fails to do this with folders.
SHFileOperation_ can move even ...

Re: Replace text in .pdf file?

@infratec It seems she's not looking for (another) Desktop app to create / fill a form but a tool that allows to automate the whole process via command line interface (and still creates a 100% reproducible output even with non-standard fonts)?

Re: Export binary from datasection as file?

Thank you, NicTheQuick!

I'll rewrite my datasection(s) then and yes, it absolutely makes sense that the label isn't a string anymore at compile time... :mrgreen:
