Need help monitoring uploaded bytes using netstat


Recommended Posts

So i got this code about two months ago from these forums, i dont understand much of it at all. First question - Is there any way of making this greatly simplified so i could edit it myself?

second question - this gets the received bytes, but not the sent bytes... Could someone please help me to get it to add the received and the sent bytes together before displaying it? (i need a lot of help because it is hard for me to understand)

I really appreciate it, thanks.

Here's a trimmed down version:

#include <Constants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 321, 70, 355, 477)
$Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Bytes I/O", 8, 24, 117, 20)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 10, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 154, 24, 153, 21, BitOR($ES_AUTOHSCROLL,$ES_READONLY))
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 8, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

AdlibRegister("GetInfo", 1000)
While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
    Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
    Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func GetInfo()
    Local $cmd = Run(@comspec & " /c netstat -e", @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDIN_CHILD & $STDOUT_CHILD)
    Sleep(500)
    Local $line = StdoutRead($cmd)
    ; getting from STDOUT only number of bytes received and bytes sent and update control whith this info:
    Local $bytes = StringRegExp($line, "(?m)^[^\d]+\s+(\d+)\s+(\d+)", 3)
    GUICtrlSetData($Input1, $bytes[0] + $bytes[1])
; run from SciTe to see that working, but remove this line for compile and production
ConsoleWrite('Bytes received: ' & $bytes[0] & ' bytes sent: ' & $bytes[1] & @LF)
EndFunc

Hope it will work for you.

Thanks a lot, with a little effort i will be able to hopefully understand it.

firstly, i get this error

C:\Users\*\*\*\*\*\internetinfo.au3 (27) : ==> Subscript used with non-Array variable.:

GUICtrlSetData($Input1, $bytes[0] + $bytes[1])

GUICtrlSetData($Input1, $bytes^ ERROR

secondly, i dont understand this line

Local $bytes = StringRegExp($line, "(?m)^[^\d]+\s+(\d+)\s+(\d+)", 3)

or to be more specific this line-

"(?m)^[^\d]+\s+(\d+)\s+(\d+)"

I really appreciate your help, its a great aid in helping me learn autoit x)

Ok it's due to the fact that I used my XP Pro SP3 x86 French version of netstat. Your OS is likely to return something different. Can you please run the following in a command prompt:

C:\> netstat -e

and copy paste the output?

Are you running the script as admin?

Ummm, I wonder why.

Try this version (forcibly runs as admin) and forces recognition of the word Bytes:

#RequireAdmin
#include <Constants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 321, 70, 355, 477)
$Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Ethernet Bytes I/O", 8, 24, 140, 20)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 10, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("0", 154, 24, 153, 21, BitOR($ES_AUTOHSCROLL,$ES_READONLY))
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 8, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

AdlibRegister("GetInfo", 1000)
While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
    Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
    Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func GetInfo()
    Local $cmd = Run(@comspec & " /c netstat -e", @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDOUT_CHILD)
    Sleep(500)
    Local $line = StdoutRead($cmd)
    ; getting from STDOUT only number of bytes received and bytes sent and update control whith this info:
    Local $bytes = StringRegExp($line, "(?m)^Bytes\s+(\d+)\s+(\d+)", 3)
    GUICtrlSetData($Input1, $bytes[0] + $bytes[1])
; run from SciTe to see that working, but remove this line for compile and production
ConsoleWrite('Bytes received: ' & $bytes[0] & ' bytes sent: ' & $bytes[1] & @LF)
EndFunc

The pattern (?m)^Bytes\s+(\d+)\s+(\d+) breaks dow as follows:

(?m) forces the co-called "multiline" mode

^ aligns on either start of subject string, or on start of some line (this is our case here)

Bytes matches itself, i.e. the string "Bytes"

\s+ matches the longest possible string of one or more whitespaces (blank, tabs, ...)

(\d+) matches the longest possible string of one or more decimal digits and the outer parenthesis make a capture of that, stored as first item in the result array (bytes received)

\s+ matches the longest possible string of one or more whitespaces (blank, tabs, ...)

(\d+) matches the longest possible string of one or more decimal digits and the outer parenthesis make a capture of that, stored as second item in the result array (bytes sent)

We then add both numbers and display.

The volatile error may be due to the command shell + netstat not being "just ready" and a busy machine. That's why you have a Sleep(500) after the Run(...) command. Once run once, it should keep on running fast as everything will be in cache. If you experience such error too frequently, come again and someone will show you how to overcome the situation.
