Execute("$variable=3;MsgBox(1,"",$variable);")

[khui]

Hello fellas, I'm trying to execute a variable and then MsgBoxing it.

$buffer = TCPRecv($MainSocket,999999)
 $bits = StringSplit($buffer,";")
  For $a = 1 To $bits[0] -1
    $exec = Execute($bits[$a])
  Next
 $buffer = ""

Alright, so o split into strings at ";".

When i write "MsgBox(1,"","hello");" to the socket, it works.

When i write "$a=3;" to the socket, it doesn't do anyting visible obviously.

When i write "$a=3;MsgBox(1,"",$a);" to the socket, it opens a msgbox displaying a number, but It's the wrong number, sometimes it says "1" and sometimes "4" ect.

If you know how to make this whole thing work, please tell me

Thank you for reading.

You need to see what $buffer is to find out what's happening. Add a line

ConsoleWrite($buffer & @CRLF)

after TCPRcv.

If $buffer = '' then you should shouldn't be processing it so try TCPRecv again until you get a valid string. Look at the example in the help for TCPRecv.

I had a MsgBox that told me what the buffer we're and i couldnt get fix it anyway

Lets say the buffer contained: $a=4;MsgBox(1,"",$a);

The msgbox got printed, but instead of "4" it printed "2".

Now i know why it printed 2 duh

i used $a as a counter in my For-loop

Well anyway, when i tried with $sa=3;MsgBox(1,"",$sa);

It didnt print anything.

The ConsoleWrite($bits[$a] & @CRLF) said:

$sa=4
MsgBox(1,"",$sa)

*bump*

Seriously, no one knows? Is this some kind of bug?

20 views and one answer, thats a shame.

You are extremely impatient. Wait at least 24 hours before bumping your post. You are deterring people with that attitude of yours.

Firstly, you doubled up on double quotes, which messes with the syntax.

Secondly, you will probably have to use an if statement to sort through the returns. Here is an example that you can modify. It is a bit messy where I parsed the strings, but you get the idea.

$buffer = "$sa=3;MsgBox(1,'',$sa);"
$bits = StringSplit($buffer, ";")

For $a = 1 To $bits[0] - 1
    If StringLeft($bits[$a], 1) == "{:content:}quot; Then
        Assign(StringMid($bits[$a], 2, StringInStr($bits[$a], "=") - 2), StringRight($bits[$a], StringLen($bits[$a]) - StringInStr($bits[$a], "=")))
    Else
        Execute($bits[$a])
    EndIf
Next

If you want to execute a script sent over TCP functions, save it to a file and run it that way. Execute isn't meant to run every kind of code.
