BinaryToString problem

[xdp22]

Hello guys, i have problem with MemoryRead and BinaryToString, i trying to get text from one thing, by memory. So i had to do :

$1 = _MemoryRead(0x75C1B4, $proces)
$2 = _MemoryRead(0x75C1B4 + 4, $proces)

$1a = BinaryToString($1)
$2a = BinaryToString($2)

And here is problem, when i trying to return it like : MsgBox(0, "", $1a & $2a) I get just $1a in msgbox.

But when i do it MsgBox(0, "", $1a) and MsgBox(0, "", $2a) i get $1a and $2a, so it's no problem with MemoryRead.

Why $1a and $2a can't be combined in one string?

I hope you can help me, Thanks guys.

Try this: MsgBox(0, "", $1a &" "& $2a)

I tried, doesn't work too :/

iam not sure but:

$2 = _MemoryRead(0x75C1B4 [color="#FF0000"]+ 4[/color], $proces)

0x75C1B4 equals to hex and + 4 must be hex too.

If you want to do + 4, you have to convert 0x75C1B4 to decimal first.

Here you go:

$dec = Dec("0x75C1B4"); or Dec(75C1B4) if any probs.
$val = $dec + 4

$now_convert_it_back = Hex($val); make it "0x"&$now_con... if it comes without 0x

$2 = _MemoryRead($now_convert_it_back, $proces)

lemme know if it works

Nope :/ but i know what is the problem, $1 returns - "text " not "text", so i need delete spaces.

StringRegExp with $1, but how to delete only spaces with StringRegExp?

Try StringStripWS() function with correct flag

[xdp22]

StringStripWS(BinaryToString(_MemoryRead(0x75C1B4, $proces)), 8) Still return me text with spaces, my god

Have you tried:

$1a = BinaryToString($1)
$2a = BinaryToString($2)
$combined = $1a & " - " & $2a

yet ?

[xdp22]

$1a is just in example "abcd "

i need to do just "abcd", but any of that doesn't work :

$option_1 = StringStripWS($string, 8))
$option_22 = StringSplit(StringStripWS($string, 8), " ")
$option_22[0] = StringSplit(StringStripWS($string, 8), " ")

All return "abcd "

And it isn't problem with space deletion, i tried change spaces for "," too, and i get "abcd ," so something is wrong here, cuz if i test it with my normal text it works :

$sString = "test    " & @CRLF & @CRLF & "test   "
$aArray = StringSplit($sString, @CRLF)

; Start here if you use _FileReadToArray

$sNewString = ""

For $i = 1 To $aArray[0]
    If StringLen($aArray[$i]) > 0 Then
        $sNewString &= StringStripWS($aArray[$i], 8) & ","
    EndIf
Next

MsgBox(0, "", $sNewString)

Well It is not a space then or any other whitespace.

My guess is that its a null char, maybe such a char does not exist in autoit, but you are not dealing with exclusive autoit vars when you are reading from memory.

Deal with the binary before you convert it to string.

[xdp22]

U mean $1 = BinaryToString(Binary(_MemoryRead(0x76C2B4, $proces))) ??

Still nothing :/

[JohnOne]

Its difficult to say without seeing what it is or where its coming from, it could be null or it could be eof or something.

Loop through it maybe, trying to get the ascii code, my guess is that it will be 00

[JohnOne]

Try StringReplace($var,Asc(00),"")

[xdp22]

It returns nothing :|

Edit:

Done !!

THANKS ALL

MsgBox(0, "", StringRegExpReplace($1,"[^0-9,a-z,A-Z]","") & $2)
