SadBunny Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) #RequireAdmin ConsoleWrite("hoi"&@CRLF) Nothing is written to the console though the script runs fine. (Using Windows 7, 32 bits.) If I don't #RequireAdmin, I see the console output. [edit: I think something is in fact written to *some* console, just not the one I'm seeing or something.] I'm guessing running a script as administrator it still writes to the console but just not the console that the Scite window is handling... Because if I start Scite as administrator, then I can see the console output after a #RequireAdmin. What puzzles me though is that if I start Scite as admin and I DON'T #ReqAdm, then I can still see the output! Run Scite as admin + ConsoleWrite = I see output Run Scite as admin + #RequireAdmin + ConsoleWrite = I see output Run Scite as user + ConsoleWrite = I see output Run Scite as user + #RequireAdmin + ConsoleWrite = I see NO output! ?

BrewManNH Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 From the help fileRemarksThis function was primarily aimed at allowing AutoIt scripts to work correctly with Windows Vista User Account Control (UAC) (However, will also work on Windows 2000 and Windows XP).For more details see AutoIt on Windows Vista.As this function launch a new process, some functions as Consolewrite() cannot be captured (Scite will not display anything). If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

SadBunny Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 From the help fileThanks. I did read that, but as I pointed out in my previous post I can see the ConsoleWrite output just fine after a #RequireAdmin as long as I start Scythe as administrator... So I think the help file might be cutting corners on this subject somewhat. Roses are FF0000, violets are 0000FF... All my base are belong to you.

JohnOne Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Because what is doing is running the script as another user than who started the scite session. That is of course if you do not start scite as admin, as then you are the same user. Get it now?

SadBunny Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 No, sorry but actually I don't, since when I run Scite as admin and I don't include the #RequireAdmin, I still see the console output. Or is the interpreter itself ran as admin when you start scite as admin? I guess it is. Never mind! Thanks for helping. Roses are FF0000, violets are 0000FF... All my base are belong to you.

BrewManNH Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 When you run SciTe as an admin, and then run the script, you are running it as an Admin it doesn't need to be restarted to run as Admin with the #requireadmin directive. If you run Scite as a regular user and then start the script, it's STARTED as by the regular user, the #requireadmin directive will then RESTART the script as an admin. Because it's being started a second time, in a different user's namespace, it's not visible to SciTe any longer. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

AdmiralAlkex Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 #requireadmin is useless, if you're running a script launch AutoIt or SciTE as admin, and if you compile use #AutoIt3Wrapper_res_requestedExecutionLevel. .Some of my scripts: ShiftER, Codec-Control, Resolution switcher for HTC ShiftSome of my UDFs: SDL UDF, SetDefaultDllDirectories, Converting GDI+ Bitmap/Image to SDL Surface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always worked like a charm, both for test scripts from scythe as for compiled exes. Roses are FF0000, violets are 0000FF... All my base are belong to you.
