I'm trying to read a resource (file.txt), trying to figure it out by viewing this, but haven't found it out yet, any suggestions :)?

A resource is embeded in a dll or exe or other files, what are you trying with file.txt?

Spoiler

Renamer - Rename files and folders, remove portions of text from the filename etc.

GPO Tool - Export/Import Group policy settings.

MirrorDir - Synchronize/Backup/Mirror Folders

BeatsPlayer - Music player.

Params Tool - Right click an exe to see it's parameters or execute them.

String Trigger - Triggers pasting text or applications or internet links on specific strings.

Inconspicuous - Hide files in plain sight, not fully encrypted.

Regedit Control - Registry browsing history, quickly jump into any saved key.

Time4Shutdown - Write the time for shutdown in minutes.

Power Profiles Tool - Set a profile as active, delete, duplicate, export and import.

Finished Task Shutdown - Shuts down pc when specified window/Wndl/process closes.

NetworkSpeedShutdown - Shuts down pc if download speed goes under "X" Kb/s.

Hi Legend,

Posting your wrapper directive line you are using to add the resource and the Findresource line you are referencing it with would assist those that try to help you ;)

Look at it from our perspective, without your reference code/line we don't know:

* whether you copied the code from that thread.

* Where in RT_RCDATA your text file resides

* Whether you are using the ansi or Unicode version of FindResource

* whether you decided to use FindResourceEx (ansi or unicode) when FindResource failed you

Y'know that sort of thing, aka help those you wish to help you ;)

Hi Mobius, thank's for your reply, this is what i'm trying to do : 

  

#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Icon=..\..\..\..\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\Icons\au3.ico
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_File_Add=text_1.txt, RT_RCDATA, TXT_1, 0
#EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****

#Include <WinAPI.au3>
#include <Constants.au3>
Global Const $RT_RCDATA = 10

$Path = @ScriptFullPath
$Hlib = _WinAPI_LoadLibraryEx($Path, $LOAD_LIBRARY_AS_DATAFILE)
$Resource = DllCall('kernel32.dll', 'ptr', 'FindResourceA', 'ptr', $Hlib, 'int', 2, 'long', $RT_RCDATA)
MsgBox(0, '', _WinAPI_GetLastErrorMessage())

 

I'm unsure how i would go on about reading the resource : TXT_1

I'm working on a autoit anti deobfuscator, for this purpose I need the shortest possible code for reading a resource as a string.

To make it compatible with any version of autoit.

If it have any interest, I can release it when it's ready
