compiling a script without version info?

[John117]

I would like to be able to compile a script and not be able to tell it was compiled with autoit. the 'other version information' shows 'compiledscript' value 'Autoit v3 Script' is there a way to avoid, remove this?

Thanks

[Jos]

Used the option in AutoIt3Wrapper that comes with SciTE4AutoIt3 which allows you to set all these to something else ......

Its all described in the Helpfile that comes with the installer..

@Jos -thanks for the response! That was the first place I looked. D:\Program Files\AutoIt3\AutoIt3Wrapper_Gui

I was thinking it should there maybe in run before/after but I am not sure what I should be doing here. I tried to search in the included help. only got misses. searched %fileversion%

There is a separate tab in AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI for the resource info of the target program. It will require ResHacker but Tab will allow you to download and install it.

Then its just a matter of filling in the fields in AutoIt3Wrapper_Gui which will generate the required directives.

Not sure what helpfile you looked in but there is a page on it in the SciTE4AutoIt3 helpfile (Ctrl+F1) from within SciTE.

Could you tell me what doesn't work anymore and show an example of what you are doing and the output shown in SciTE ?

; Script Start - Add your code below here

Compile that using F7 in scite.

Now look at the properties of the EXE file, under the 'Version' tab.

How do you remove or change the 'CompiledScript' item?

I've tried using:

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Field=CompiledScript|Change Me

But that just creates a second item named 'CompiledScript'.

I've also tried using the AutoIt3Wrapper_Gui.exe, but don't see that option listed anywhere.

Can someone tell me what I'm missing?

EDIT:

After some more experimenting, I find that the 'CompiledScript' value disapears is you add this line:

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Language=1033

Don't know why that would have anything to do with 'CompiledScript', but it does get the value erased.

After updating ScITE, the CompiledScript field is there no mather what i do with the AutoItWrapper3 (the field value gets erased if i use Jazkal's code ...) ...

[Jos]

The "CompiledScript" variable is a standard Version field that was put into compiled script a while ago and after an offline discussion amongst the Devs it was decided to leave that in the File's resources, also when updated by Autoit3Wrapper.

The "empty" value after specifying a different language is a BUG and will be fixed in the next version or AutoIt3Wrapper.

So there will be no way to get rid of that field and value (once the bug is fixed) ?

Crap ... (srry for language)

Maybe we should consider to leave it in as default but give an option to remove it.

Don't know why it's hard coded, but I'm sure ya'll had a reason... but the above would be a nice option ... Because those that want to remove are going to anyway ...

There is also this if you look into the exe with some HexEditor

@Xenobiologist

I agree with you and I think the Dev's should put an option to bypass the CompiledScript thing .
