Using C/C++ function in Autoit script

[madshiva]

Dear all,

I have search but found nothing about this. There is a way, to add C++ code (few line) to a AutoIt script without a dll call ?

I would write a script that benchmark one hard drive, I got one source in C++ for help me.

Link to the source in C++ :

I have search in the fonction of AutoIt but there is no fonction to read the disk by sector, it's why I would like to create this fonction, but I don't know how I could transform this to AutoIt :

char buf[10];
wsprintf(buf,"\\\\.\\%c:",name[0]);
return (int)CreateFile(buf,GENERIC_READ,FILE_SHARE_READ|FILE_SHARE_WRITE,NULL,OPEN_EXISTING,FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL|FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING,NULL);

I hope someone could help me, to find the right way to do this.

Thanks in advance.

Relatively easy to do. Check out the Plugins interface. Valik even updated the VS projects, so if you have Visual Studio Express, you should be able to adapt your code in a matter of minutes.

This will let you create a function with the plugin interface that will be treated exactly like a native function in AutoIt.

Ok, I will try.

Thanks you for your help JRowe !

In AutoIt:

$hFile = FileOpen("\\.\C:", 16)
ConsoleWrite(FileRead($hFile, 10) & @CRLF)
FileClose($hFile)

Or just:

ConsoleWrite(FileRead("\\.\C:", 10) & @CRLF)

Have in mind requirements of your system regarding admin privileges needed for running that code.
