Hey, TLDR; Take Image from dll File, rotate as needed, Put into Button Control I want to use Icons from shell32 and Put them into Buttons as Images. So far so easy, Buttons are created with Style BS_ICON and the Image ist set via guictrlsetimage with specific identifier. But the Idea is to use arrows or other Icons from the shell32.dll or different files, but rotating them as needed for the Button controls. Since the Rotation has to be done at runtime, creating the icons in advance wont work. I got a bit lost, using GDI Plus in this. Every attemp i tried, failed in No Icon displayed. But i am not used to GDI Plus at all, that might be the Problem here. When i have access to the current source, i will add this to the topic. Any ideas so far how to solve this? Greetings.

An example of monitoring when windows are created, closed or re-drawn.

I'm trying to make it so that any given window is unable to be resized or moved. I'm using the function _WinAPI_SetWindowLong() and _WinAPI_SetWindowPos(). I also added $SWP_NOSENDCHANGING so as to disable the window's call to move when dragged with the mouse, and removed $SWP_FRAMECHANGED, as I didn't need it in my case, Win11, apparently the sizing box went away without having to send the framechanged parameter. However, it didn't disable that window-moving function, it seems as though $SWP_NOSENDCHANGING does nothing in this instance. Here is the code I'm working with: #include <WinAPISysWin.au3> $hWnd = WinGetHandle( "[CLASS:CabinetWClass]") If @error Then MsgBox( 0, "", "FileExplorer window not found.") Exit EndIf $iStyle = _WinAPI_GetWindowLong( $hWnd, $GWL_STYLE) $iStyle = BitXOR( $iStyle, $WS_SIZEBOX) _WinAPI_SetWindowLong( $hWnd, $GWL_STYLE, $iStyle) _WinAPI_SetWindowPos( $hWnd, $HWND_TOP, 0, 0, 0, 0, BitOR( $SWP_NOSENDCHANGING, $SWP_NOMOVE, $SWP_NOSIZE)) I also tried it with $SWP_FRAMECHANGED in the SetWindowPos() flags just in case, but it didn't help. If anything, $SWP_FRAMECHANGED just adds an ugly thicker border around the window, I don't need it to update the window after removing the sizing box, to reiterate, it is changed without having to do so. Am I using $SWP_NOSENDCHANGING wrong? I am trying to disable the size box AND prevent the window from being able to be moved. Any help would be appreciated! I'm using a file explorer window for the test, so make sure it is open before running the code, and if it doesn't remove the sizing box for you, maybe you do need $SWP_FRAMECHANGED.

Using some very ingenious scripts that I found on this forum, I've put together a special-purpose folder watcher that watches a specified folder for printer output files and then either send them to a printer or converts them to a PDF and prints or opens the PDF. The page about this utility is here: http://www.columbia.edu/~em36/printfileprinter.html The one serious problem that it has is that it seems not to detect a new file if there are more than two or three files already in the watched folder. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, and will be grateful for any help. Here is the relevant part of the script. I've left out the functions that test whether the file is in use or not, and that send the raw data to the printer or create a PDF, etc. I hope there's enough code here to make sense of it, and will be very grateful for any help. Again, the problem is that the script doesn't detect newly-created files in watched folders with more than a very few files already in it. My totally ignorant guess is that the problem is in the line $iID = _WinAPI_WaitForMultipleObjects(2, $paObj, 0, 0) - but I don't know how to change it and of course I'm only guessing whether it's relevant or not.

The disadvantage of using atoms is that atoms have a memory that means when your app is crashing or you forgot to delete the atom then the atom does still have the $sOccurrenceName saved and thus Singleton will not work if you use the same same value for $sOccurrenceName. With semaphore you don't have this issue. Thanks to jj2007 and SARG.

Edit: If you already read this post, I updated it to better fit the scope of what I want to do. My goal is to be able to read the raw output from a usb type controller (or mouse or keyboard, don't want it to be controller-only) so i can see how / what changes when i hit buttons.

Hi, I thought I would never post a C/WinAPI related question in this forum ever, but here we are after a few years and me having learnt enough of C to write a basic console program My issue is that I am trying to read my child process's stdout output but ReadFile never returns if the child exits or if it is killed... very strange , I have been trying to work my way around this. The options I can think of are: Create a new thread and check for existance of the process constantly while reading Somehow make the pipe asynchronous (overlapped) so that I can read it in a non-blocking manner Fix ReadFile to return when the process ends Obviously I would prefer No. 3, I just want to make my program work. Here is my code if you guys want to take a look: // No text highlighting for C/C++ but we have it for C#? Blasphemy! bool allium_start(struct TorInstance *instance, char *config, allium_pipe *output_pipes) { char *cmd; // Figure out the command string for execution if (config) { char *parameters = " -f -"; cmd = malloc(strlen(instance->tor_path) + strlen(parameters) + 1); if (!cmd) return false; strcpy(cmd, instance->tor_path); strcat(cmd, parameters); } else cmd = instance->tor_path; // Prepare startup info with appropriate information SecureZeroMemory(&instance->startup_info, sizeof instance->startup_info); instance->startup_info.dwFlags = STARTF_USESTDHANDLES; SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES pipe_secu_attribs = {sizeof(SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES), NULL, true}; HANDLE pipes[2]; if (output_pipes == NULL) { CreatePipe(&pipes[0], &pipes[1], &pipe_secu_attribs, 0); output_pipes = pipes; } instance->startup_info.hStdOutput = output_pipes[1]; instance->startup_info.hStdError = output_pipes[1]; instance->stdout_pipe = output_pipes[0]; // Stored for internal reference if (config) { // Reuse the pipes array to store standard input pipes CreatePipe(&pipes[0], &pipes[1], &pipe_secu_attribs, 0); instance->startup_info.hStdInput = pipes[0]; } // Create the process bool success = CreateProcessA( NULL, cmd, NULL, NULL, config ? true : false, 0, NULL, NULL, &instance->startup_info, SecureZeroMemory(&instance->process, sizeof instance->process) ); // Free command string if needed if (config) free(cmd); // Write config to Tor's standard input unsigned long bytes_written; if (success) { WriteFile(pipes[1], config, strlen(config), &bytes_written, NULL); // Work around for simulating Ctrl + Z which sends the substitution character (ASCII 26), // this is needed in order for Tor to detect EOT/EOF while reading the config WriteFile(pipes[1], &(char){26}, 1, &bytes_written, NULL); } CloseHandle(pipes[1]); // Return on failure if (!success) return false; } char *allium_read_stdout_line(struct TorInstance *instance) { char *buffer = instance->buffer.data; // Check for valid buffer and allocate if needed if (instance->buffer.size == 0 || !buffer) { buffer = instance->buffer.data = malloc(instance->buffer.size = 80 + 1); if (!buffer) return NULL; } // Process the input unsigned int read_len = 0; while (true) { // Read data unsigned long bytes_read; if (ReadFile(instance->stdout_pipe, buffer, 1, &bytes_read, NULL) == false || bytes_read == 0) return NULL; // Check if we have reached end of line if (buffer[0] == '\n') break; // Proceed to the next character ++buffer; ++read_len; // Resize buffer if it is full if (read_len == instance->buffer.size) { char *new_buffer = malloc(instance->buffer.size += 50); if (new_buffer) memcpy(new_buffer, instance->buffer.data, read_len); free(instance->buffer.data); if (!new_buffer) return NULL; instance->buffer.data = new_buffer; buffer = instance->buffer.data + read_len; } } // Terminate the new line with null character and return // Special handling for Windows, terminate at CR if present buffer[read_len >= 2 && buffer[-1] == '\r' ? -1 : 0] = '\0'; } The allium_start function creates the redirection pipes and the child process, the other allium_read_stdout_line function reads from the stdout pipe created by the first function, ReadFile in this function does not return when the child ends or gets killed. I appriciate the help of the WinAPI gurus here, thanks in advance!

Hi guys, there is no UDF wrappers for GetAdaptersAddresses API... till now Here you are: ; #FUNCTION# ==================================================================================================================== ; Name...........: _WinAPI_GetAdaptersAddresses ; Description ...: Retrieves the addresses associated with the adapters on the local computer. ; Syntax.........: _WinAPI_GetAdaptersAddresses($iFamily = 2, $iShowAll = 1, $iShowTunnel = 0) ; Parameters ....: $iFamily - IP type. ; |0 - Both ; |2 - IPv4 (default) ; |23 - IPv6 ; $iShowAll - Presentation mode ; |0 - Short: only Unicast address(es) and Friendly Name columns are returned ; |1 - Long (default): all columns are returned but Anycast and Multicast columns return only the first address (it is not an array) ; |2 - Complete: all columns are returned, Anycast and Multicast columns return an array with the complete list of addresses ; $iShowTunnel - Shows or not tunnel interfaces ; |0 - Don't show (default) ; |1 - Show ; Return values .: On success it returns a bidimensional array: on rows there is the adapter list, these are the columns ; |0 - Preferred unicast address(es), it returns an array of addresses only if $iFamily == 0 ; |1 - Friendly name ; |2 - Anycast addresses: if $iShowAll == 1 it returns the first anycast address of the list, ; if $iShowAll == 2 it returns an array with the complete list of anycast addresses ; |3 - Multicast addresses: if $iShowAll == 1 it returns the first multicast address of the list, ; if $iShowAll == 2 it returns an array with the complete list of multicast addresses ; |4 - DNS Server 1 address ; |5 - DNS Server 2 address ; |6 - Adapter Name ; |7 - Description ; |8 - MAC address ; |9 - Interface Type ; for example $array[2][8] represents the MAC address of the third adapter ; ; On failure it returns 0 and sets @error to non zero (these values are useful only for debugging reasons): ; |1 - incorrect parameters ; |2 - DllOpen error ; |3 - DllCall error ; |4 - _WinAPI_GetString error ; |5 - Query for IPv6 addresses and IPv6 is not installed on the OS ; Author ........: j0kky ; Modified ......: 1.1.3 13/02/15 ; Remarks .......: This function is fully compatible with all OS from Windows XP onwards, there can be some problem using this function ; with

I've encountered a problem with a single file where I cannot retrieve it's Date-time. So far my code has worked well for over 30 files, but this one is a mystery I cannot debug myself due to insufficient Au3 knowledge. In line 11 "_Date_Time_FileTimeToArray" is called and for this particular file it sets the @error to 10.

Hi ! I have difficulties to learn how to use WinAPI functions with DllCall. I red the (very good) >Tutorial on DllCall() & DllStructs. I understand the tutorial, but it's hard for me to apply it myself. For example, the function GetUserName (just an example, I know @username of course) : BOOL WINAPI GetUserName( _Out_ LPTSTR lpBuffer, _Inout_ LPDWORD lpnSize ); Parameters lpBuffer [out] A pointer to the buffer to receive the user's logon name. If this buffer is not large enough to contain the entire user name, the function fails. A buffer size of (UNLEN + 1) characters will hold the maximum length user name including the terminating null character. UNLEN is defined in Lmcons.h. lpnSize [in, out] On input, this variable specifies the size of the lpBuffer buffer, in TCHARs. On output, the variable receives the number of TCHARs copied to the buffer, including the terminating null character. If lpBuffer is too small, the function fails and GetLastError returns ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER. This parameter receives the required buffer size, including the terminating null character. For me, the first parameter (lpBuffer) sould be a STR type (from AutoIt helpfile in DllCall) The second, a DWORD (I think), but the MSDN says it is the size of the lpBuffer, in TCHARs : what is it ? In >this topic, I found a solution for GetUserName : MsgBox(0, "", _GetUserName() ) Func _GetUserName() Local $tlpnSize = DllStructCreate("dword[255]") Local $aDLL = DllCall("Advapi32.dll", "int", "GetUserName", "str", "", "dword*", DllStructGetPtr($tlpnSize)) If @error Then Return SetError(@error, 0, 0) Return $aDLL[1] EndFunc I don't understand : - why using "int" instead of "bool" for the first parameter (as said in the MSDN page)? - why the second parameter value is empty ? - does TCHAR is equals to dword[255], how to find this by myself ? - why the last parameter is not DllStructGetPtr (I thought the size of the lpBuffer buffer should have been defined by DllStructGetSize) As you can see, I am a newbie for this, and I would like to understand more, but I don't know how .... Can someone give me some explanations or links ?? Thanks in advance, and sorry for the blurred question...

Hi Guys, I`m trying to record with my webcam in 5s intervalls and do some stuff between starting to record and stoping. I took code from here: https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/27925-webcam-example/ and took what looked relevant to me. I use 3 different files: Is called WMS.au3 and contains all the constants for the dll calls is called rec.au3 and does all necessary dll calls to start a webcam recording to a file Is called stopcam.exe and does the dll calls to stop recording into a file WMS.au3 : $WM_CAP_START = 0x400 $WM_CAP_UNICODE_START = $WM_CAP_START +100 $WM_CAP_PAL_SAVEA = $WM_CAP_START + 81 $WM_CAP_PAL_SAVEW =

working. Does someone see what I´m doing wrong? It should record the webcam for about 10 seconds ( a little less) and save that to an .avi file. It does not stop the recording , I have to stop the process manually... Secondly, which confuses me more is that it creates the test.avi not in the location is specified in the script... its stored in the ScriptDir for whatever reason haha I hope you can help me ~HappyCoding

I was looking around the help file and I came across _GDIPlus_GraphicsDrawRect and _WinAPI_DrawLine and I seem to be having the same "problem" where every time it draws into a window and you lose or gain focus it has to redraw itself. Is there anyway around this? #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> #Include <GDIPlus.au3> _GDIPlus_Startup() Run("notepad.exe") $hWnd = WinWait("Untitled") $hGraphic = _GDIPlus_GraphicsCreateFromHWND($hWnd) $Color = 0xFFFF0000 $hPen = _GDIPlus_PenCreate($Color, 2) For $i = 1 To 10 _GDIPlus_GraphicsDrawRect($hGraphic, 200, 200, 25 ,25, $hPen) ToolTip($i) Sleep(1000) Next _WinAPI_RedrawWindow($hWnd, 0, 0, $RDW_INVALIDATE + $RDW_ALLCHILDREN) _GDIPlus_GraphicsDispose($hGraphic) _GDIPlus_PenDispose($hPen) _GDIPlus_Shutdown()

can someone plz explain how WinAPI work and some example script plz

So first things first the example in the help file for _WinApi_Enum_Windows has an error ;_ArrayDisplay($aResult, "_WinAPI_EnumWindows", Default, Default, Default, Default, "#|Handle|Class|Title|Text|Process") Should Be _ArrayDisplay($aResult, "_WinAPI_EnumWindows", Default, Default, Default, "Handle|Class|Title|Text|Process") Next is a bit of helpful info on LPCSTR in a callback function it needs to be passed as a PTR DllCallbackRegister($sFUNCT, $sRETURN, "ptr") Finally on to my question I'd want to call EnumPropsEX and pass a string through lparam + append to it rather than declaring anything globally I can Come up with two ways to do this The second it a lot more code but possibly safer but the first way I think Should do 1. From a bit of testing It seems AutoIt won't overflow a DllStruct? 2. Are strings passed through DLL call guaranteed to be 'an ANSI string (a minimum of 65536 chars is allocated)' as the Helpfile clearly states? #include <Array.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> Example() Func Example() Local $aWindows = _WinAPI_EnumWindows() Local $aResult[$aWindows[0][0]][6] For $i = 1 To $aWindows[0][0] $aResult[$i - 1][0] = "0x" & Hex($aWindows[$i][0], 8) $aResult[$i - 1][1] = $aWindows[$i][1] $aResult[$i - 1][2] = WinGetTitle($aWindows[$i][0]) $aResult[$i - 1][3] = WinGetText($aWindows[$i][0]) $aResult[$i - 1][4] = WinGetProcess($aWindows[$i][0]) $aResult[$i - 1][5] = _ArrayToString(EnumProps($aWindows[$i][0]), ", ", 1) Next _ArrayDisplay($aResult, "_WinAPI_EnumWindows", Default, Default, Default, "Handle|Class|Title|Text|Process|Properties") EndFunc ;==>Example Func EnumProps($hWnd, $vDLL = 'user32.dll') ; Create callback function.

Hey guys, MattDiesel over Stackoverflow mentioned this beautiful piece of code #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> Local $IDM_FONT = 33 Local $hWindow = WinGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad") _WinAPI_PostMessage($hWindow, $WM_COMMAND, $IDM_FONT, 0) Local $hFontWin = WinWait("Font") $select = ControlCommand($hFontWin, "", "ComboBox1", "GetCurrentSelection", "") WinClose($hFontWin) MsgBox(0,"", $select) I realized that _WinAPI_PostMessage can trigger menu click event, even if Notepad is minimized. How do we know what is the decimal value of *any menu item or sub-menu item*? How we know "Format > Font" menu-item is 33 as wParam to _WinAPI_PostMessage()? Have a look at snapshot. Regards.

Hello! As some of you probably know, _WinAPI_DwmEnableBlurBehindWindow does not work as you'd like it to work in Windows 10. It doesn't add Aero-like blur, as seen in the new Start menu or Notification Center. I looked for a solution and found "the most elegant" one: The blur only affects the inside of the window and it is not colored. It can be enabled via an undocumented SetWindowCompositionAttribute function in user32.dll. _WinAPI_DwmEnableBlurBehindWindow for Windows 10 - this archive contains both the UDF and the example.

plz help explain between GDI+ and Winapi, is it desktop inside another desktop, 3 layer dimension? i can't get the picture 1. u get desktop u can visual see 2. then u create GDI+ startup another desktop screen dimension? 3. then u have Winapi command inside GDI+, is this another desktop screen dimension? cuz GDI+ could create bitmap that is one dimension? Winapi get windowDC also another dimension? plz help and explain, with picture would be nice, im not good with visualize ("dumb newbie"), still learning newbie to programming world thankyou.

I am working on some functionality to detect whether a standard keyboard was used for input in my UI or if a barcode scanner (that acts like a keyboard) was used. Instead of dealing with a scanner SDK, I decided I would read from the raw input to get device info and make a determination. I discovered while testing with multiple UIs is that when the WM_INPUT message is received and the function called, the $hWnd param is always the same (apparently whatever handle I set the "hTarget" to in the RAWINPUTDEVICE struct). Is this normal behavior?? Using the test code below, no matter what window you give input to the $hWnd param never changes. #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WinAPISys.au3> $Form1 = GUICreate("Form 1", 300, 300, -1, 10) ConsoleWrite("$Form1 = " & $Form1 & @CRLF) $Edit1 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 0, 0, 300, 300) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $Form1) $Form2 = GUICreate("Form 2", 300, 300, -1, 350) ConsoleWrite("$Form2 = " & $Form2 & @CRLF) $Edit2 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 0, 0, 300, 300) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $Form2) GUIRegisterMsg($WM_INPUT, "WM_INPUT") ; https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms645590(v=vs.85).aspx $tRID = DllStructCreate($tagRAWINPUTDEVICE) ; https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms645565(v=vs.85).aspx DllStructSetData($tRID, "UsagePage", 1) DllStructSetData($tRID, "Usage", 6) DllStructSetData($tRID, "Flags", 0) DllStructSetData($tRID, "hTarget", $Form1) ; According to the struct def, if hTarget=NULL then it should follow keyboard focus. - nope :( $pRID = DllStructGetPtr($tRID) _WinAPI_RegisterRawInputDevices($pRID) ; https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms645600(v=vs.85).aspx Do Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Func WM_INPUT($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam) ConsoleWrite("hWnd = " & $hWnd & " | Title = " & WinGetTitle($hWnd) & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite("Active Window = " & WinGetTitle("[ACTIVE]") & @CRLF) Return $GUI_RUNDEFMSG EndFunc ;==>WM_INPUT
