ZDS Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) Bonjour tout le monde / Hi to everyone ! First of all, I apologize in advance, I'm a french user and my last English lesson was near to 5 years ago ^^ I'm trying to read the extended property of a compiled script, NOT THE CLASSIC ONES (not the version for example, I know how to use FileGetVersion). When the following code is compiled to "foobar.exe", I'd like to catch (in another script) the value in a property named "foo", aka "bar" in the example below.#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI **** #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Field=foo|bar #EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI **** MsgBox(0,"","foobar !")Here is a little screenshot from the Properties Window (sorry french version of Windows) : Thanks for all the help you could give to me ! A bientôt / See you ! ZDS PS: I forgot, I'm looking for a function for an executable, this is the kind of function for a not-compiled script :Func FileGetAdvancedPropertyForSRC($file, $property) Local $value = "", $start = "#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Field="&$property&"|" Local $flux = FileOpen($file, 0) If Not @error And $file <> -1 Then For $i = 1 To 25 Local $line = FileReadLine($flux, $i) If @error Then ExitLoop If StringLeft($line,StringLen($start)) = $start Then $value = StringTrimLeft($line,StringLen($start)) ExitLoop EndIf Next EndIf FileClose($file) Return $value EndFunc Edited May 25, 2012 by ZDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrewManNH Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I have a modified version of that UDF and it won't return that property on an exe I compiled, I can see the property in Windows XP, but not with the UDF. I also don't see it in Windows 7, so I'm not sure where it sets that property. It's not visible to $object.GetDetailsOf. 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.

ZDS Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 Hi, In fact I was working with a very very old version of AutoIt. With 3.2.X and newer the FileGetVersion function use a new parameter, exactly what I needed. Example for the micro-script in my first topic : FileGetVersion("foobar.exe", "foo") This is my personal function to get the information from a script or a compiled script : Func FileGetAdvancedProperty($file, $property) Local $value = "" If StringRegExp(StringLower($file), ".AU3$") Then Local $start = "#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Field="&$property&"|", $flux = FileOpen($file, 0) If Not @error And $file <> -1 Then For $i = 1 To 25 Local $line = FileReadLine($flux, $i) If @error Then ExitLoop If StringLeft($line,StringLen($start)) = $start Then $value = StringTrimLeft($line,StringLen($start)) ExitLoop EndIf Next EndIf FileClose($file) Else $value = FileGetVersion($file, $property) If @error Then $value = "" EndIf Return $value EndFunc Thanks for your help !
