I'm trying to get a "double" value from memory . However my code gives me error. Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)     Global $ProcessID = WinGetProcess("TI Pro")     If $ProcessID = -1 Then         MsgBox(4096, "ERROR", "Failed to detect process.")         Exit     EndIf     Local $DllInformation = _MemoryOpen($ProcessID)     If @Error Then         MsgBox(4096, "ERROR", "Failed to open memory.")         Exit     EndIf   Local $dAddress = 0x1FECD474   Local $tNbSteps = DllStructCreate("double", $dAddress)   Local $value = DllStructSetData($tNbSteps, 1, (_MemoryRead($dAddress, $DllInformation)))      MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, $value)

I updated the UDF by Patric Pendelin to use the MemoryDLL UDF. There are only two new functions: _SevenZip_Load & _SevenZip_Free The first function must be called before using any other functions included in the UDF and the other should be called to free memory when the UDF is no longer needed! The size of binary from the module was excessive so I used the ZLMA UDF to compress it. It will be decompressed at run time before its loaded into memory. The only advantage of using this UDF is that it removes the need to included any DLLs in your script. A lot of functions haven't been added yet! For those that dare: The API for the 7-Zip32.dll module is included in the attachment. These functions work in the same way you would you use the standalone 7za.exe executable so the Help.chm file applies to these functions aswell. Thats it, Enjoy! The code below is a sneak peak at the actually UDF, meaning it dosen't work without the other includes and the embed binary. - Download the attachment. #include-once #include "MemoryDLL.au3" #include "LZMA.au3" Global $__7ZIPDLL = Default, $__7ZIPINIT = False #cs =============================================================================== Name: 7-Zip.au3 Version: 1.0 Datum: 08.07.2008 Author: Patric Pendelin eMail: <patric.pendelin (a) gmx.de> Modified By: Decipher Script Function: _SevenZip_Load() _SevenZip_Extract($s_Archive, $s_Out="", $s_Pass="", $szCmdLine="", $s_Overwrite="", $hwnd=0, $szOutput="NULL", $dwSize=0) Extracts files from an archive _SevenZip_Add($s_Archive, $s_Out = "", $s_Typ = "7z32", $i_Comp = 5, $s_Pass = "", $szCmdLine = "", $hwnd = 0, $szOutput = "NULL", $dwSize = 0) Add files to an archive _SevenZip_GetVersion() Get 7_zip32.dll Version _SevenZip_GetRunning() _SevenZip_CheckArchive($s_Archive, $i_iMode = 0) _SevenZip_GetArchiveType($s_Archive) _SevenZip_GetFileCount($s_Archive) _SevenZip_GetUDFVersion() Returns UDF version number _SevenZip_Free() #ce =============================================================================== Func _SevenZip_Load() If Not $__7ZIPINIT Then $__7ZIPDLL = MemoryDllOpen(__7ZIPBIN()) $__7ZIPINIT = True EndIf EndFunc Func _SevenZip_Free() If $__7ZIPINIT Then MemoryDllClose($__7ZIPDLL) $__7ZIPINIT = False $__7ZIPDLL = Default EndIf EndFunc ;=============================================================================== ; Function Name: _SevenZip_Extract ; Description: Extracts files from an archive ; ; Parameter(s): $s_Archive: Fullpath to Archive-File ; $s_Out: Specifies a destination directory where files are to be extracted.

Please answer me these questions three, ere the other side you see: Are you running a 64-bit machine with a 64-bit Windows operating system? Can your AutoIt scripts cope with having directive #AutoIt3Wrapper_UseX64=Y, and thus @AutoItX64=True? Are you sick and tired of seeing this error message? If you (like me) answered "YES" to all three questions, then the _HighMem library may ease your pain (the name commemorates a useful utility from the days when CPUs were still steam-powered). Forget about pathetic boot switches /3GB and /userva; in a full-fledged 64-bit environment, _HighMem can pre-allocate all available physical/virtual RAM you've got (or any smaller size you need), and manage individual allocations therein with four simple functions: _HighMem_StartUp( $nSize, $sUnit="GB" ) ; parse size of total region to pre-allocate, e.g. (10,"GB") _HighMem_Allocate( $nSize, $sUnit="B" ) ; returns $pOffset (new allocation's base address) _HighMem_Release( $pOffset ) ; existing allocations are identified by their offset (base address) _HighMem_CleanUp() ; close handles, release all pre-allocated memory Of course, existing AutoIt limitations remain in force (e.g., DllstructCreate() is still limited to 2 GB per call), but the maximum of 2-4 GB of virtual memory per Windows process can (under the right circumstances, in the proper environment) be circumvented. However, this is the first beta release, so glitches are likely, and performance may vary. In fact, it may not work at all for you (if you're running 32-bit, for example). And since this involves your own hardware, it's unlikely I would be able to reproduce your issues in my own work environment. Nevertheless, if you find obvious bugs or mistakes in the code, please do post. And if it works for you, that's also good to hear. My own motivation for developing it was to supercharge my matrix computing environment (Eigen4AutoIt), so it can handle matrices of any size that fit in machine RAM. The attached zip contains the library itself (HighMem.au3) and two test examples. HighMem_Test1 performs a dry run stress test of the allocation management system; it does not actually do any memory I/O. By contrast, HighMem_Test2 pre-allocates a 6 GB space, stores 3 x 2GB structs there, performs some basic I/O, and releases the allocations one by one. Obviously, for this to work you'll need at least that much free RAM to begin with (check with Task Manager -> Performance -> Memory if you're unsure). My own test environment has 16 GB of physical RAM, and runs W10Pro/64. EDIT: minor edits added to improve user experience (many more status messages if $_HighMem_Verbose=True) HighMem.v0.85.7z EDIT: from beta version 0.9, HighMem supports shared memory, including mutex negotiation. HighMemv0.9.2.7z

When I use DllStructCreate() to reserve a chunk of memory I would like to know if I can rely on that memory being initialized to zero. Experience suggests that it is, but I have been searching to try and find a definitive statement anywhere that this is the case. I apologise if I have missed somewhere. Part of the reason for this question is so that my next search (after my personal memory has dimmed) should yield a link to this post, hopefully with an answer. A number of DLLs I use have structs where a few parts have to be explicitly set and other parts are reserved with the instruction that they must be set to zero. Because DllStructCreate() appears to zero-initialise the memory, I tend to forget to do it explicitly and everything seems to work. I am wondering whether I have been lucky and am storing up trouble for myself. It seems likely that the OS has been asked for zeroed memory, but without a promise in the documentation for DllStructCreate(), perhaps that could change? Perhaps the developers wish to reserve the right to change their minds?

After watching this movie (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPiDHXtM0VA) I wanted to try the test to see how much i could compete with that chimpanzee so i created this script. well, actually passing that test is a lot harder than it sounds. With the difficulty set to seven numbers and a display time of one second, I can only remember 2 or 3 numbers ... (what a disappointment) I can only do better if I reduce the slider to 5 numbers and increase the storage time to 2 seconds (the easyest level), a very poor performance. That chimpanzee is great. The script offers you a sequence of 10 random quizzes. At the end it gives you the percentage of your "level". The chimpanzee resolves on average 8 out of 10 (80%), so you can compare your performance to that of the chimpanzee. How to play: Run the script. At the beginning there are 2 sliders at the bottom of the screen where you can set the difficulty level by varying the memorization time and the amount of numbers to memorize as you like. After setting the difficulty, click the circle on the bottom left to get started. after the first move the sliders are no longer displayed until the next game, (the game lasts 10 attempts, there is a progress bar at the bottom of the screen to see where you are) between one test and the other of the ten, click on the circle to move on to the next test have fun.

Guys, i need help on creating a script that restarts a program once it starts using more than 1GB of memory. No idea how to start on the script, i don't know which functions i should use for process memory reading. My mind is in total blank at the moment, so i need a kick start

Hello! Im wondering if it is possible to 'empty' the variable value to save memory, for example i often use variable as a onetime use thing and would prefer to 'forget' it after is is used Maybe it is just as easy as to setting $vVar = Null, but i wanted to make sure that this is the case

Is there a reliable way to ensure that data assigned to variables in a script is overwritten or deleted when the script exits? I have scripts that encrypt/decrypt data and would like to ensure, if possible, that the encryption keys and decrypted data do not stay in memory after the script exits. Thanks.

Hey there! I've been developing a artificial intelligence. My first hard task was letting the A.I know when a sentence is found in memory with different words What i tried to do here is simply, get all the words in user sentence that could be used as a identifier example: Steve Jobs then identify the sentence purpose with the words we found in the past "for" loop example: Do/Know/You/Who/Steve/Jobs Compare the example in the following matching sentences in memory. 1-Steve jobs was a known person 2-Do you know who barack obama is? 3-Do you know Steve jobs? 4-Do you know who steve jobs is? 5-How much money steve jobs had Then find the sentence that has way more matches than the other ones, remember that if the identifier words were not found (Steve jobs) then the sentence is invalid. Every sentence has a different answer and is important that the right one is chosen. If there's no more than the half of words in matches, then assign a variable the result of function, such as a return but for a global var. I couldn't figure out how to do that with StringRegExp. I honestly need help with detecting identifiers on memory sentences. I would also like to let the AI know typos, meaning that moeny and money means the same thing. Any help is hugely appreciated.

Here test example of a dummy program with random added controls to the main form: If #include <GuiListView.au3> is commented out, then this simple program uses around 3,5 MB of RAM. When #include <GuiListView.au3> NOT commented out - RAM usage is around 13-14 MB. How can I reduce memory usage? Even if I'm not using GuiListView.au3 - 3,5 MB quite a bit for a such dummy program! I found out that using this DLLCall in main loop: DllCall("psapi.dll", "int", "EmptyWorkingSet", "long", -1) Significantly reduces RAM usage (even with GuiListView.au3 included, from 13-14 MB to 600 KB !!! ) but I'm not sure if it's doesn't have any impact to common workflow of a program... So, give me any advice about that, please.

I'm trying to read value of a base pointer + offset. With only address I can easily the value but with base addres (pointer) I really don't know how I can do that.

Hi, I have a problem, my functions do not work with each other. Separately, each works very well. Features that do not work together it's loot() and pos1(). It looks that after spreadsheet function loot() script stops working even though everything is in the While 1-Wend loop. Can someone help me please?  

Since my last topic were closed because bot scripting aren't allowed to be discussed anymore on here. Could anyone possibly give me a good example to learn memory read/write? , i can't figure out anything else which would be a good level of difficulty to practice than "tetris bot" but since it aint legal, i wont be asking for that let me know ur ideas and i would highly appreciate if examples could be posted (My last project was a imgsrch/pxlsrch) so thought i woud move on to memory read/write, if this somehow came out wrong lmk. AND NO I'M NOT ASKING FOR A FULL CODE I WANNA CODE/SCRIPT IT MY SELF, Just show me some simple examples of Memory read/write if u can/will TYVM. Dequality.

I honestly didn't try anything yet. But i was thinking about my next step would be to try creating a tetris bot for educational purpose only. Last time i created a automation script / bot for ClubPenguin, which was simply made with PixelSearch If NOT(@error) Then , bla bla u know the drill aight, so i thought i would give my self a little harder challenge instead of keep making Pixelbots, i would love to try making a Memory bot or w/e u call , i read something about memory read/record was used for Tetris bots, since i haven't used Memory, i would love to know if anyone could give me a good guide or smth to follow :-) Either a complete tetris bot guide or a guide that explains memory totally in depth ish. :-) Dequality. #ANY-HELP-APPRECIATET

Well as stated I am trying to get memory to work. I am using the cheat engine tutorial just trying to read a memory values. I am using NomadMemory and Nomadmemory2 which I will link for you all and anyone else that is having the same problem. At this point I am thinking my OS and Autoit are too new for it. Can anyone help with getting this to work? NomadMemory.au3 NomadMemory2.au3

I am looking for a way to set up either VIRTUAL_PROTECT or PAGE_GUARD for memory protection. I currently don't know how to do this, I have made the encryption for my EXE Protector, the RunPE module, and basically everything that I need. I also have made an advanced obfuscation tool, which I might release here on the forums in the future, to make sure the code is impossible to be understood. However, people can dump the original EXE from memory when I am injecting it. So how would I implement VIRTUAL_PROTECT, PAGE_GUARD or other methods of protecting memory?

Here's the goal: Create a handle to a bitmap object using _WinApi_PrintWindow (this is done and working properly, I can take a screenshot of the window even when it's hidden or offscreen, does not work minimized)Be able to search for a pixel color in memory on the handle. I can get it to work if I create a Bitmap from an HBITMAP (_GDIPlus_BitmapCreateFromHBITMAP) and then go through each pixel and check it using _GDIPlus_BitmapGetPixel but it's too slow. I've tried doing the _WinApi_GetPIxel using an $hDC but it's much slower than GDI+ (GD+ takes about 20seconds to search for almost 500,000 pixels, GetPixel takes almost 60seconds)I found the FastFind library but, honestly, it's sloppy and I'm wanting to search a defined area, not set the starting position and then search the rest of the window. I also found a few examples on the forums but I could not get them to work. Here's the CaptureWindow function. I'm only wanting to capture the client area (Not the border around the client, hence the -16 for the width and the -38 for the height, gets rid of the title bar and the resize bars on the sides. Also I'm wanting to keep the coordinates relative to the window, so if you only want to capture the screen from 480, 200 to 680, 400, then the rest of the area is black on purpose) #include-once Func CaptureWindow(Const $iLeft = 0, Const $iTop = 0, Const $iWidth = -1, Const $iHeight = -1, Const $hWindow = WinGetHandle("[Active]")) Local $rect_window = WinGetPos($hWindow) Local $hDC = _WinAPI_GetWindowDC($hWindow) Local $hDestDC = _WinAPI_CreateCompatibleDC($hDC) Local $hBitmap = _WinAPI_CreateCompatibleBitmap($hDC, $rect_window[2] - 16, $rect_window[3] - 38) Local $hDestSv = _WinAPI_SelectObject($hDestDC, $hBitmap) Local $hSrcDC = _WinAPI_CreateCompatibleDC($hDC) Local $hBmp = _WinAPI_CreateCompatibleBitmap($hDC, $rect_window[2] - 16, $rect_window[3] - 38) Local $hSrcSv = _WinAPI_SelectObject($hSrcDC, $hBmp) _WinAPI_PrintWindow($hWindow, $hSrcDC, True) If ($iWidth > 0 and $iHeight > 0) Then _WinAPI_BitBlt($hDestDC, $iLeft, $iTop, $iWidth, $iHeight, $hSrcDC, $iLeft, $iTop, $MERGECOPY) Else _WinAPI_BitBlt($hDestDC, $iLeft, $iTop, $rect_window[2] - 16 - $iLeft, $rect_window[3] - 38 - $iTop, $hSrcDC, $iLeft, $iTop, $MERGECOPY) EndIf _WinAPI_SelectObject($hDestDC, $hDestSv) _WinAPI_SelectObject($hSrcDC, $hSrcSv) _WinAPI_ReleaseDC($hWindow, $hDC) _WinAPI_DeleteDC($hDestDC) _WinAPI_DeleteDC($hSrcDC) _WinAPI_DeleteObject($hBmp) Return $hBitmap EndFunc ;==>CaptureWindowAnd the first attempt for PixelSearch, using GDI+ (Fastest) Func PixelSearchInhBitmap(Const ByRef $hHBmp, Const ByRef $color, Const $tolerance = 10, Const $iLeft = 0, Const $iTop = 0, $iWidth = -1, $iHeight = -1, Const $iStep = 1) Local $hBitmap = _GDIPlus_BitmapCreateFromHBITMAP($hHBmp) Local $rbg_color = _ColorGetRGB("0x" & Hex($color, 6)) Local $found_color = False Local $abscoord_color[2] = [0, 0] Local $red_low = 0 Local $green_low = 0 Local $blue_low = 0 Local $red_high = 0 Local $green_high = 0 Local $blue_high = 0 $red_low = ($tolerance > $rbg_color[0] ? 0 : $rbg_color[0] - $tolerance) $green_low = ($tolerance > $rbg_color[1] ? 0 : $rbg_color[1] - $tolerance) $blue_low = ($tolerance > $rbg_color[2] ? 0 : $rbg_color[2] - $tolerance) $red_high = ($tolerance > 255 - $rbg_color[0] ? 255 : $rbg_color[0] + $tolerance) $green_high = ($tolerance > 255 - $rbg_color[1] ? 255 : $rbg_color[1] + $tolerance) $blue_high = ($tolerance > 255 - $rbg_color[2] ? 255 : $rbg_color[2] + $tolerance) If ($iWidth = -1) Then $iWidth = _GDIPlus_ImageGetWidth($hBitmap) If ($iHeight = -1) Then $iHeight = _GDIPlus_ImageGetHeight($hBitmap) Local $start_time = TimerInit() For $iY = $iTop To $iHeight Step $iStep For $iX = $iLeft To $iWidth Step $iStep Local $get_pixel = _GDIPlus_BitmapGetPixel($hBitmap, $iX, $iY) If (@Error) Then ContinueLoop Local $pixel_color = _ColorGetRGB("0x" & Hex($get_pixel, 6)) If (@Error) Then ContinueLoop If (($pixel_color[0] >= $red_low and $pixel_color[0] <= $red_high) and ($pixel_color[1] >= $green_low and $pixel_color[1] <= $green_high) and ($pixel_color[2] >= $blue_low and $pixel_color[2] <= $blue_high)) Then $found_color = True $abscoord_color[0] = $iX $abscoord_color[1] = $iY ExitLoop 2 EndIf Next Next MsgBox("", "", TimerDiff($start_time) / 1000) _GDIPlus_BitmapDispose($hBitmap) If ($found_color) Then Return $abscoord_color Else Return SetError(-1, 0, 0) EndIf EndFuncSecond attempt using _WInApi_GetPixel (Note.

hello autoit developers community i have some question , i hope to find the answers of it : - in large project or even in small ones how to make my compiled script use less memory ? - how to test my script and be sure that there is no memory leak , or whatsoever reduce my script performance ? - where can i find anything talks about autoit script architecture to avoid bad script design ? last thing i find these script can anyone describe how these scripts work and is these script actually work fine thanks Func _ReduceMemory() Local $ai_GetCurrentProcessId = DllCall('kernel32.dll', 'int', 'GetCurrentProcessId') Local $ai_Handle = DllCall("kernel32.dll", 'int', 'OpenProcess', 'int', 0x1f0fff, 'int', False, 'int', $ai_GetCurrentProcessId[0]) Local $ai_Return = DllCall("psapi.dll", 'int', 'EmptyWorkingSet', 'long', $ai_Handle[0]) DllCall('kernel32.dll', 'int', 'CloseHandle', 'int', $ai_Handle[0]) Return $ai_Return[0] EndFunc Func _SelfReduceMemory() DllCall("psapi.dll", "int", "EmptyWorkingSet", "long", -1) EndFunc

Good Morning AutoIT Geniuses! Maybe this question is answered somewhere already... but I'm looking to ramp up the priority or "speed" of my exe's. So, I've been experimenting and I don't see a huge increase in completion regardless of the processor or memory I use. Sure, if I increase the memory I don't run out of memory, but if I increase memory - things relatively stay the same... why is that? In another scenario for instance, I put the exe on a Dell server w/ 24 GB of ram and several quad core Xeon cpu's and the time to execute was relatively the same... Oh, and the CPU never spiked or went above 5%... even after I stepped up it's priority. That seemed impossible - so I'm asking - is AutoIT mostly responsible for system resources used or is it on Windows? I used WIndows 7 x64 and Windows Server 2012. Clueless as to what the guts are behind AutoIT and how Windows hands the exe's resources or how AutoIT "tells" Windows how to handle it's resources. This day in age, we have quad cores +++ and then some... so this app should be screaming fast - it's not like I'm playing Crysis in 8K - haha, lol.

Hey guys, im writing on my project and got some memory leaks. Actual im looking for the leak for a month and now i got some curios results. I wrote some testscripts, to see, if AutoIt causes memory leaks. So i wrote some testscript for Listviews, Lists, and Labels to see, if i create a Listview with lets say 1000 items and delete them, does AutoIt reset the complete memory of these items? i'd say no. I did some tests and got the result that in best case 4K memory is missing ...

Hello Community! I'm working on a script which uses WMI to expose BIOS info. The script works, but it does not release the memory it used to execute the object creation and query. The script will continually wire more and more memory everytime the case is called. As a work around, I've stored the result of the query in a variable in case it's called again, but I would like to figure out how to manage the memory better. The code itself is for HP Bios, so it's not likely to work on a non HP machine. #include <Constants.au3> Opt("TrayMenuMode", 1) TraySetState() $ItemSerial = TrayCreateItem("Serial Number") While 1 $msg = TrayGetMsg() Select Case $msg = $ItemSerial TrayItemSetState($ItemSerial, $TRAY_UNCHECKED) If $Serial = "" Then $objWMI = ObjGet("winmgmts:" & @ComputerName & "rootHPInstrumentedBIOS") If $objWMI = ("") Then BasicSet() $colItems = $objWMI.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM HPBIOS_BIOSString", "WQL", "wbemFlagReturnImmediately" + "wbemFlagForwardOnly") If IsObj($colItems) Then For $objItems In $colItems If $objItems.Name = "Serial Number" Then $Serial = $objItems.Value EndIf Next EndIf EndIf MsgBox(0, "Serial Number", "Serial Number is " & $Serial, 30) $objWMI = 0 ; This deletes the object For simplicity I pulled out one example from the script, my apologies if something is missing.
