PureBasic Forums - English

Hello @doctorized - I just stumbled across your historical post because I'm also questioning myself, why my DeviceIoControl_/#IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH code is not working as x64 executeable.
I'd love to check your code - maybe it helps me to find my error.

It seems your website does not exist any ...

Created a bug report for the problem:

Maybe it's a 4GB problem :D


1GB file -> 1GB packed file
2GB file -> 2GB packed file
3GB file -> 3GB packed file
4GB file -> 0 byte packed file ??
5GB file -> 1GB packed file
6GB file -> 2GB packed file
7GB file -> 3GB packed file
8GB file -> 0 byte packed file ????


And when I create a ...

Here's a small example which shows my problem:


Creates a 15GB file
creates a new pack
adds the 15gb file
closes the pack and reopens it (else I get an error during execution)
examines the pack and the added file is only 3gb in size?


Please adjust the filenames before executing.

Hi!
(UPDATE: changed the title as it better shows the findings)

I just want to clarify if I'm doing something wrong of if really all plugins are limited to 2GB source file size.

I tried it with:

BriefLZ
TAR
LZMA
ZIP


And none of them is able to compress files >2GB.

The ZIP plugin mentions ...

Does anyone know how to change the code from the first post so that it works for folders instead of files?

I haven't tried - but I think it should with folders out of the box - simply because the windows api command 'getfiledate' is also designed to work with folders:

Thanks for the help! Didn't notice this small detail ...

Problem solved

But I don't want the data in my example - all I want is the headers ... to read the contentsize from it and calculate the progress during the async download.
(I know in my example the data is just buffered and finally lost because it's never read from the buffer - but I only care about 'HTTInfo ...

Hi!
Please help me - I can't figure out how to use the new feature to get the http headers.

Here's my example:

EnableExplicit

Define sUrl.s="https://www.purebasic.com/download/PureBasic_Demo.zip"
Define iConn.i
Define iProgress.i

InitNetwork()

iConn=ReceiveHTTPMemory(sUrl, #PB_HTTP ...

It's still broken ...

The only browser where it's working correctly is the old IE11, in Firefox, Chrome and the new Edge it's not working

I fully agree - any ideas how to access the header fields of the transfer started by ReceiveHTTPFile ?

Hi!
In 2017 I've started to use libsodium ( https://www.libsodium.org ) for security features in one of my applications.

2 days ago I noticed that I cannot compile my old application with the x64 compiler because of sodium and updated the libraries to the most recent version 1.0.18 and added x64 ...

Just try yourself:


debug random(100)


and execute it:
# the debug window will open
# display the expected output
# the execution ends
# and the main-editor window will come to front again - hiding the debug-window

The setting 'Keep all debugger windows on top' keeps them on top all the time ...

Unfortunately none of this options is really satisfying:


Redirect to error log
Is a workaround, but personally I like the debug window :)
IDE setting to open the Debug Output window when your app starts
This does not change anything when the execution ends - the main purebasic still get's the ...

Hi!

Something that I would really appreciate:

A setting to bring the debug window to front after execution.

I know there's a setting to "Keep all debugger windows on top", but this is not what I want. On a computer with just 1 one screen this does not make sense because the debug windows would be ...
