Droopy's Lib

[lexvictory]

Fixed/updated for next version: GetFileVersion() constants, AboutBox() (-1 parameters also)

@chi: ChangeDisplaySettings() works fine on my system - refresh rate included.

thx for your respond anyway

Hi all,

I've installed version 1.31.13 and it is telling me that I have already got AboutBox() in Droopy and in Droopy leading me to believe that I have two libraries but I don't see any others. I've even done a file search and this is the only one that turns up.

It may not be the library that's causing the problem but something I've done. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Randy

[lexvictory]

can u post the exact text of the error box?

check that you do not have any old versions still installed (this version has all lib files named Droopy, older versions had differing names.)

also please note that this release is only for PB 4.20. (as you did not specify which PB version, i thought it worth mentioning)

[Randy]

Duplicated library command: AboutBox() (in libraries Droopy and Droopy)

I'm running 4.20. However, it's good to ask these questions because I've obviously done something wrong.

What would the other libraries have been named? I have four (including this one) in the UserLibraries folder. JHGadget_400, PureRESIZE, ScintillaStaticFull, and of course, droopy (8/18/2008).

Thanks for your efforts, there are definitely some utilities I could use within this library... if I could just get PureBasic working again.

hmmm... interesting situation...

open cmd (start>run>type cmd>ok) - the following presumes you know some about cmd... (if u dont, follow every command with a press of the enter key)

type cd c:\Program Files\purebasic (change this if PB is installed elsewhere)
type dir /s droopy > droopy.txt
type notepad droopy.txt

copy and paste the contents of the file into a post
then type del droopy.txt
then close cmd


the contents of the file should look something like this:

Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is C05B-3B45

Thank you for supporting this great library.

Any chance to see a PB 4.30 compiled version soon?

when the final comes out; for beta use you can just do an includefile on droopy.pb

The command RegGetValue is inaccurate when returning #REG_BINARY.

Orginal data was: 00,35,15,0A,8A,37

Value returned was: 002515A8A370

It removed the 0 from the hex value 0A and shifted the whole string left.

This solved the problem for me

Code from RegGetValue procedure

Code: Select all

Case #REG_BINARY 
          BinaryBytes=1024
          *RegBinary=AllocateMemory(BinaryBytes) 
          GetHandle = RegQueryValueEx_(hKey, ValueName, 0, @lType, *RegBinary, @BinaryBytes) 
          If GetHandle = 0 ; SUCCESS
            GetValue=""
            For i = 0 To (BinaryBytes-1 )
              Temp3=PeekB(*RegBinary+i)&$FF
              ;If Temp3<10 : GetValue+"0" : EndIf <<< removed this one
              If Len(Hex(Temp3))>1
                GetValue+ Hex(Temp3)
              Else
                GetValue+ "0"+Hex(Temp3)
              EndIf
            Next 
            FreeMemory(*RegBinary)
          EndIf

Sorry, but "when" would be a more useful question.
It will probably be released by the weekend - as I have just got a new computer (and will now be able to make an x64 version of the lib), and I am still in the process of setting it up.

guess i spoke too soon - I needed the new version sooner than i thought
See the announcement topic for details.

How do you use:

Code: Select all

ImpersonateUserRunas(CommandLine.s,Argument.s) 

from the lib? Is there an example for it?

See Library\Impersonation in the help file

The 'Microsoft OS -> Path' command PathAdd() doesn't work.
Getting an 'Invalid memory access'.

Will test more commands later
