You are so right. Thank you for the insight!

Can I answer my own question? Ter Leering ende vermaeck, as we say in dutch:

It was solved by placing the line after the while-wend loop...

Isn't that strange? I thought ReadProgramError only works if ProgramRunning <> 0

Hi,

when running a program (in this case Cmail.exe) from the commandprompt, I can redirect the output using the commandline cmail.exe -config:configfile.txt -d > %temp%\cmail.log 2>&1 to a file. This includes the data from -d (which is written to stdout) and the error (which is written to stderr ...

That's a very nice tutorial. Thank you. I've used this before (and used it as an example for my own code), but ran into the same issue with it. However, I think I will manage another way to get those arrays (if I need them)

I'm trying to wrap my head around JSON, but find it quite difficult, to be honest. I'm probably doing it all wrong, but I have this piece of code:

Declare.s GetJsonAnyValue(value)
Declare.s HTTPJsonRequest(posttype,string.s,gegevens.s="")
Declare ExtractJsonObject(value)
Declare ...

Hi,

I would like to find out which ODBC drivers are installed on my system. That should be an easy task, using the following code:


UseODBCDatabase()
If ExamineDatabaseDrivers()
While NextDatabaseDriver()
Debug DatabaseDriverName()+":"+DatabaseDriverDescription()
Wend
EndIf


However, this ...

Ofcourse that would work, but it's a workaround for something that used to work.

Tested some more. In 5.40, the addpackfile after the openpack gives a [ERROR] Invalid memory access. (read error at address 0)
In 5.42, the same command just returns a zero.

UseZipPacker()
Debug CreatePack(0,"c:\temp\test.zip")
Debug AddPackFile(0,"c:\temp\unpacked\Tobbe 2.lic","Tobbe 2.lic")
Debug ClosePack(0)
Debug OpenPack(0,"c:\temp\test.zip")
Debug AddPackFile(0,"c:\temp\unpacked\Tobbe 2.vbs","Tobbe 2.vbs")
ClosePack(0)
After creating a zipfile using createpack ...

This gonna sound stupid, probably, but

I wrote a program which needs elevation. I used the "request Administrator mode for Windows Vista and above" and this works. However, I needed the program to start not elevated, and than be restarted elevated, so I used the code from http://www.purebasic.fr ...

Thank you. That's clear and logical. Is there any (purebasic) way around it, expect for using the 64bit purebasic, or runprogram(Getenvironmentvariable("comspec"),"/c echo %programfiles(x86)% > sometext.txt") (something like that)and parsing that output? The program needs to run on both 32 and 64 ...

Debug GetEnvironmentVariable("ProgramFiles(x86)")
Debug GetEnvironmentVariable("ProgramFiles")

both give c:\program files (x86) back.

Also

Debug GetEnvironmentVariable("Commonprogramfiles(x86)")
Debug GetEnvironmentVariable("commonprogramfiles")

both C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files

Checked ...

Already know what's happening: I run the program in Administrative Mode (Elevated). Then the mapped drives are not available. When not running elevated, it's working as expected...

When using OpenFileRequester, the mapped drives (on Windows 8, at least) are not shown. Is it possible to do so?

Commands don't count up to the first 0. The simply seem to ignore the zero's. If I do a PokeS with that logonstring, the zeros are gone. The effect is the same: it doesn't work, but the 0 is not a terminator, apparently. That ShowMemoryViewer function is certainly easy...

I will try your code when ...

I tried that also, but the effect is the same. Does not work, unfortunatly...


logondata.s=Chr(1)+"username"+Chr(0)+"password"+Chr(0)
*buffer=AllocateMemory(Len(logondata))
PokeS(*buffer,logondata,Len(logondata),#PB_UTF8)
If InitNetwork()
ConnectionID=OpenNetworkConnection("datafeed.aislive.com ...
