About This File

Hello Everyone :), Are you tired of searching the forum for getting both the exit code & the stdout output? Then your are in the right place!

Icon.thumb.png.2a778725e21a7b500ad144c11

With this UDF you can get the both output & exit code of the command or the console app! Or you can get the exit code of another process without having to use RunWait...

Features:

1. Simple & Lightweight (15 KB)

2. Detailed comments & description

3. Flexible functions with many optional parameters :)

A BIG THANKS TO PsaltyDS for the functions! 2 of the (main) functions in the UDF are his work :)

 

List of functions:

_Process_RunCommand: Runs a command or a executable

_Process_WaitUntil: Waits until a process starts or quits. Also returns the exit code...

_Process_GetPID: Gets the PID of the process using the name of the process

_Process_GetPath: Get the path of a process along with its arguments (if any)

_Process_GetHandle: Gets the handle of a process, will be used later to retrive the exit code

_Process_CloseHandle: Closes the Process Handle of a process

_Process_GetExitCode: Gets the exit code of a process

_Process_DebugRunCommand: Debugs a command in CMD style, see the example.

What's New in Version 1.3

Released

Added $PROCESS_DEBUG option

Changed Constant's values, they now are powers of 2 (for compatability with BitAND)

Changed _Process_RunCommand to accept $PROCESS_DEBUG, You can now debug directly using this function :)

Changed _Process_DebugRunCommand, Now you can resize it

 

Also some little cleanups ;)

      Send multiple commands line in a CMD window
      By Baboo85
      Hi all,
      I need to start a script that include:
      - admin privileges
      - multiple cmd commands
      - no bat, no exe, no tmp files created anywhere (especially in the user temp folder)
      In a bat file it would be simple, but users shouldn't see what commands I'm sending.
      Example of the script:
      echo off cls echo. echo I AM A TOOL echo. echo NOTE: echo - note 1 echo - note 2 echo - etc set USER1=0 set COMPUTER1=0 if /i %username% equ user.user ( set USER1=1 set COMPUTER1=1 ) if /i %username% equ another.user set USER1=1 if /i %computername% equ notebook set COMPUTER1=1 if %USER1% EQU 1 ( if %COMPUTER1% EQU 1 ( reg delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\blablabla" /f ) else ( echo Computer not authorized. Contact assistance.) ) else ( echo User not authorized. Contact assistance.) echo. pause exit With the send("") is a disaster.
      I'm a noob here, so what can I do?
       
      EDIT: OR ELSE I explain the situation and what I need, so if there is a simple solution I can use that.
       
      SITUATION: our domain users have Users rights on the machine. Some of them need administrator rights.
      We create a local user with administrator rights, so that the users must insert username and password when asked to run something with administrator rights.
      We have an internal domain group policy that blocks EXE, BAT, COM, TMP files from the user local temp directory, for a security reason (malware). That also blocks most software installation.
      But some users are often out of office, away from workplace and in another country, they need a complete control on their computers.
       
      WHAT I NEED: I need to check the username and the computer name. If the username is the one with local administrator rights and the computer name is a computer that is qualified to temporary remove the policy, then I need to execute a REG DELETE command with administrator rights.
       
      I hope I explained myself.
       
      Thank you very much.

      Can't read STDOUT for quser
      By TLOTS
      Hi!
      I'm triying to get the session id to close automatically a RDP session.
      I tried doing this:
      #RequireAdmin #include <Constants.au3> $DOS = Run('C:\Windows\System32\query.exe user', "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) ;Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'Query User', "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) ;Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'quser', "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) ProcessWaitClose($DOS) $Message = StdoutRead($DOS) MsgBox(0,'',$Message) But the $Message is always empty, if I execute any of these commands in a cmd window, it works
      Any idea on why is this falling? there is another way to get this info?
       
      PS: Sorry for my english, i'm not native.

      Problems running Command Line commands
      By fopetesl
      I have problems running both Bat files and Command line instructions.
      This function hopefully shows what I have tried so far
      Global $fFileToCreate = "", $DOS ScanFilm($fFileToCreate) Func ScanFilm($fFileToCreate) MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Scanning Status", $fFileToCreate) ; $DOS = Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & "scan.bat" & @CRLF, "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) $DOS = Run(@ComSpec & " /k " & "ncat 192.168.1.6 80 <scant.txt >scanrep", "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) ; $DOS = _RunDOS("ncat 192.168.1.6 80 <scant.txt >scanrep") ProcessWaitClose($DOS) $Message = StdoutRead($DOS) MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Stdout Read:", $Message) Endfunc My first attempt running scan.bat reveals a bug in cmd.exe where the result of
      echo !SR | ncat 192.168.1.6 80 > scanrep is
      C:\S3_GUI\ncat>scan.bat C:\S3_GUI\ncat>echo scant.txt | ncat 192.168.1.6 80 1>scanrep Ncat: . C:\S3_GUI\ncat> note the added '1' which then throws the error, (when client is connected), "File or directory not found" so the command fails.  This has been run on four different computers running Windows 7 with same result.
      Next using Run() seems to truncate the command so $DOS reads:

      Using _RunDOS() doesn't throw any error but MsgBox() is empty.

      Best way to read from powershell script?
      By tcox8
      Hello,
      Currently I am running a script that calls a powershell script. To read the results of that I am reading StdOut. I am parsing things accordingly but unfortunately it doesn't parse correctly all the time and I end up missing parts of the string or other problems. My question then is, what is the best results for reading what is returned when running a powershell script or something similar?

      Logoff users in CMD with ID
      By Eddi96
      Hey guys!
      I need your help again. So I am working on a Project with which I can Logoff a User in a Terminal-Server (Windows Server 2012 R2), logged in as Admin. Then backup the users partition and log him back in. Sounds pretty easy for you guys, right? So my problem is... I seem to not be able to get the User ID. You can see and display the ID in a textfile with:
      Run("query user>>c:\users\example\desktop\helpmeguys.txt") This line just writes a textfile of "query user" on the desktop. This is an example on what it looks like:
       BENUTZERNAME          SITZUNGSNAME       ID  STATUS  LEERLAUF   ANMELDEZEIT
      >wg                                  console                       2  Aktiv                     17    25.07.2016 08:19

      What I need right now is the ID. Any Idea on how to read it off of the Textfile?
      Please give me examples because I am still a rookie!
       
      With kind regards
      Eddi96
