Account Control V 1.01 (Bugfix version)

[Ashww]

Running it in EXE will post :

"Account Control - was already running "

Now I check the code on line If UBound(ProcessList(@ScriptName)) >= 2 Then is actually equal to 2.

The script is already running when the function ProcessList(@ScriptName) is callled. That is why this error pop up when running it in compiled script.

Because it detects itself.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes you are correct.

I have been informed of this bug, and I am currently trying to find a fix for it.

If you know how to fix this please let me know.

Also, if you can think of anyways to make this better please let me know

Cheers

I add

#include <Misc.au3>
_Singleton(@scriptname)

To the start of any code I write that should only run once. The script exits automattically if it's already running.

OR you can add (untested)

#include <Misc.au3>
if _Singleton(@scriptname,1) = 0 Then
    MsgBox(64, "* NOTE * ", "Account Control -  was already running  ", 5)
    Exit
EndIf

Instead of

If UBound(ProcessList(@ScriptName)) >= 2 Then
    MsgBox(64, "* NOTE * ", "Account Control -  was already running  ", 5)
    Exit
EndIf

Hope this helps

One thing I would change is the use of hot keys.

F1 especially is a bad choice as it stops ALL use of F1 for help. Is use it all the time in SciTE to bring up help on functions.

Remember if you are handing this onto average users there WILL BE a conflict. It's just Murphies Law! :-)

I'd suggest you use menus from the tray icon.

BTW your program is getting better with each update.

I agree with storme. I haven't had any problems with the F8 hotkey, but lots of applications use F1.

Okay, this will be fixed in the next version

Yeah looks good no problems/faults yet.

Just wondering why you re-read the database file everytime you do a check.

Would it be more efficent to declare a global array and store the database so that there is no rereading each time?

Well Done

It would. but then if you edit an process in the databace and then save it, it wouldnt take effect untill next start up.

Also i would like to make the Editor Panel look better.

Is there anyway i could do this using listview?

No real problem with editing, just reread the file to the array when the "save" button is pressed.

Or directly edit the working array (adlibdisable while doing it) and only read the file at startup.

Editing is only done once in a while "if ever" so the gain of not hitting the harddrive on every check would be worth it. IMHO

Also

Take a look at my post GUI Control Array Grid it's not complete (there is an example) just a concept but you could use it to put the name of the program and 3 buttons (trust, don't trust, delete). If you're interested and I get some time I could put something together for you.

Thank you...

I will consider everything, that you have said.

But there is no need to use your GUI Control Array Grid as i use koda to make my GUI's and then tweak/porgram them in my Editor.

If you can get Koda to give you a "dynamic" scrollable list of programs like you need for your program, let me know how you did it. That is why I put the concept together, Koda is great (in it's place) but it only gives a static layout.

Good Luck

My little script was created to allow for any number of items to be displayed with a mix of controls associated with each control.

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...c=87870&hl=

Load up the example and try adding some more programs or more buttons. It's still primitive but no one appeared to be interested so It's on hold untill I need it in the main program.

For your program you have a variable number of processes in your trusted/untrusted list.

Koda can't create an interface with a variable number of controls.

With my script AND another UDF I'll have to find again you could show a scrolling list with buttons to change the state of each program.

Good Luck
