My new 256-cubit quantum computer gives Time = 0.0 for all five. What gives?

Released a new update earlier today and would appreciate it if everyone would test the following new functions and review the coding to make sure that I haven't messed something up 😁 -- _WD_IsLatestRelease() _WD_UpdateDriver($sBrowser[, $sInstallDir = Default[, $lFlag64 = Default[, $lForce = Default]]]) Also, there were fixes / enhancements to some of the existing routines related to properly detecting and reporting timeouts. Please let me know if you run into any issues.

I tried that, but it went too overboard ... way too many keys per section. Keys are not that relevant to the issue, and neither is file size. Here is my simpler version, which is one key per section. #include <Array.au3> IniWriteTEST_2() Exit Func IniWriteTEST_2() Local $inifle = @ScriptDir & "\Testing_2.ini" Local $file = FileOpen($inifle, 1) If $file <> -1 Then For $i = 1 To 3000 ;IniWrite($inifle, "Section_" & $i, "key", "1234567890abcdef") FileWrite($file, "[Section_" & $i & "]" & @CRLF) FileWrite($file, "key=1234567890abcdef" & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Section_" & $i & @CRLF) Next FileClose($file) Local $value = IniRead($inifle, "Section_3000", "key", "") MsgBox(262192, "Last Section", "key = " & $value) Local $sections = IniReadSectionNames($inifle) _ArrayDisplay($sections) MsgBox(262192, "Last Section Name Reported", $sections[0]) ; NOTE - Limit for IniReadSectionNames is 32767 characters. Local $count = StringLen(_ArrayToString($sections, "|", 1)) MsgBox(262192, "Character Count", $count & " characters in Section Names!") EndIf EndFunc ;==>IniWriteTEST_2 Of those 3,000 sections, only the first 2,605 were returned for me in _ArrayDisplay, where the count [0] was also 2,605. This is with Windows 7 32 Bit. So IniReadSectionNames is definitely limited. 32,757 characters was returned, as the next section name would have taken it over the 32,767 limit. File size is 441 Kb. Opening the 'Testing_2.ini' file with SciTE, you can see that all 3,000 sections and keys exist. So it is only that one INI function that appears to be limited. Writing and Reading still work.

try this: Func MyIniReadSectionNames($Path) $File = FileRead($Path) If Not @error Then $Str = StringRegExp($File, "(?m)^\[{1}([^\[\]]+)\]{1}", 3) If IsArray($Str) Then $ArraySize = UBound($Str) Local $Array[$ArraySize] For $i = 0 To $ArraySize-1 $Array[$i] = $Str[$i] Next Return $Array EndIf EndIf EndFunc It will match anything between [....] For Section names only. Hopefully. Test speed please 😃 A little faster, using it directly like (seadoggie01) Func MyIniReadSectionNames($Path) $File = FileRead($Path) If Not @error Then $Str = StringRegExp($File, "(?m)^\[{1}([^\[\]]+)\]{1}", 3) If IsArray($Str) Then Return $Str EndIf EndIf EndFunc

Good to see that my Array approach ins't falling behind too much with a consistent 2nd position Also surprised to see that RegEx is slower than _ArrayAdd

While I don't have a 1 Mb Ini file to test it on, it looks like this RegEx is simpler and faster at least on smaller files (210 Kb) by ~20 milliseconds (with file handles or the file name) Func _Ini_ReadSectionNames($sFileName) ;~ If Not FileExists($sFileName) Then Return SetError(1, 0, False) Local $sContents = FileRead($sFileName) ; (?m) - Allows new lines to be used ; ^ - Starting at the beginning of a line ; \[ - Match an open square bracket ; ([^\]]+) - Capture everything that isn't a closing square bracket (at least 1 character) ; \] - Match a closing square bracket ; \s* - Match as much blank space as you need, Taylor ; $ - Match the end of a line Local $aSections = StringRegExp($sContents, "(?m)^\[([^\]]+)\]\s*$", 3) Return SetError(@error, @extended, $aSections) EndFunc I ran some tests, but I'm not the expert of giant files Edit: Just realized that you return a 1-based array. Mine's 0-based (personal preference, it's in my ini file). It also works with brackets strewn about in the data.

Simple and faster... #include <Array.au3> #include <StringConstants.au3> ;For $i = 1 To 1000 ; IniWrite("TestIni.ini", "Numbers " & $i, "Results " & $i, $i) ;Next $Path = "TestIni.ini" $time = TimerInit() MyIniReadSectionNames($Path) MsgBox(0,"","My Example: " & TimerDiff($time)) $time = TimerInit() _ReadIniSectionNamesTheSaint($Path) MsgBox(0,"","TheSaint Example: " & TimerDiff($time)) $time = TimerInit() _ReadIniSectionNamesTheDcoder($Path) MsgBox(0,"","TheDcoder Example: " & TimerDiff($time)) Func MyIniReadSectionNames($Path) FileReadToArray($Path) Local $Array[@extended/2] $File = FileRead($Path) If Not @error Then $Str = StringRegExp($File, "(?!\[).+(?=\])", 3) If IsArray($Str) Then For $i = 0 To UBound($Str)-1 $Array[$i] = $Str[$i] Next Return $Array EndIf EndIf EndFunc Func _ReadIniSectionNamesTheSaint($INIfile) $INIread = FileRead($INIfile) $INIlines = StringSplit($INIread, @LF, 1) If @error Then Return SetError(1, 0, -1) Else $SectionNames = "" For $i = 1 To $INIlines[0] $linetxt = $INIlines[$i] If StringLeft($linetxt, 1) = "[" Then $INIsection = StringTrimLeft($linetxt, 1) $INIsection = StringStripCR($INIsection) $INIsection = StringTrimRight($INIsection, 1) If $INIsection <> "" Then If $SectionNames = "" Then $SectionNames = $INIsection Else $SectionNames = $SectionNames & "|" & $INIsection EndIf EndIf EndIf Next If $SectionNames = "" Then Return SetError(2, 0, -2) Else $SectionNames = StringSplit($SectionNames, "|", 1) Return $SectionNames EndIf EndIf EndFunc ;=> _ReadIniSectionNames Func _ReadIniSectionNamesTheDcoder($INIfile) $INIread = FileRead($INIfile) Local $iSectionCount = StringCount($INIread, '[') Local $aSections[$iSectionCount + 1] $aSections[0] = 0 $INIlines = StringSplit($INIread, @LF, 1) If @error Then Return SetError(1, 0, -1) Else For $i = 1 To $INIlines[0] $linetxt = $INIlines[$i] If StringLeft($linetxt, 1) = "[" Then $INIsection = StringTrimLeft($linetxt, 1) $INIsection = StringStripCR($INIsection) $INIsection = StringTrimRight($INIsection, 1) If $INIsection <> "" Then $aSections[0] += 1 $aSections[$aSections[0]] = $INIsection EndIf EndIf Next If $aSections[0] = 0 Then Return SetError(2, 0, -2) Else If $aSections[0] < $iSectionCount Then ReDim $aSections[$aSections[0] + 1] Return $aSections EndIf EndIf EndFunc ;=> _ReadIniSectionNames Func StringCount($sMasterString, $sString) Local $iPos = 0 Local $iCount = 0 While True $iPos = StringInStr($sMasterString, $sString, $STR_NOCASESENSEBASIC, 1, $iPos + 1) If @error Or $iPos = 0 Then ExitLoop $iCount += 1 WEnd Return $iCount EndFunc

Perfect. Play with this early Xmas toy and think how the global idea can fit your use case for storage/querying best. I didn't have enough clues about your actual requirements so my tentative may focus too much on language for example but ignore other aspects important to you; again I set this up quite fast as a basic sample. Be aware that there are a lot more features in SQLite, like FTS tables (Full Text Search), virtual tables and support for add-on functions. The joined archive contains one extension of mine (unifuzz), which offers several string functions to help dealing with Unicode, like fuzzy search (Typos), Latin languages unaccentuation, language-agnostic collations and more. The C source is included. The DLL is 32-bit but I know others have compiled it for x64. You can "auto-load" this extension in Expert so it's always transparently available. Another useful extension is regex, a PCRE implementation 100% compatible with what's behind AutoIt StringRegex(). I also have extensions providing math functions, hash (MD5) and others, but those aren't going to be very useful to you right now. Use x86 versions of SQLite Expert to use that stuff out of the zip. Don't hesitate to ring my bell for help in designing your schema or any other aspect of SQLite. The SQLite website is also of great help. Also remember that SQLite is by far the most widespread RDBMS in the world ever, one of the most ubiquitous piece of software along with curl and ziplib and runs on any hardware/software platform you can think of and any SQLite DB file is portable on every implementation. In fact you unknowingly use SQLite daily: you smart TV, GPS, smartphone, modern modem/router, tablet, PC, applications (Firefox, Win 10, all Adobe, ...) all use SQLite with probability > 98%. unifuzz.zip sqlite3-pcre.zip
