Obfuscator For UTF8 With BOM

[gicungduoc]

Hi All,

I've just update SciTE4AutoIt3 to latest version 3.3.6 and tried Obfuscator function but it's failed. 

Error Message came up like this:

- Use Obfuscator from Tool --> Obfuscator then get error: 'C:Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

-Use Obfuscator from Tool --> Compile then: Au2Exe Error, Source file not specified.

Please help.....

Show the SciTE console output so I can see what is happening.

ps. There is limited support for UTF flavour files, but that will be clearly shown in the console.

I would think that this error is pretty clear:

! Input file is UTF8 encoded. Obfuscator does not support this and will be skipped.

 

AutoIt3Wrapper should however stop after that in stead of continuing, but that doesn't solve your issue.

Yes, It just need to be skipped but it stopped....Then do you have any idea? Jos?

Sure, just download the current version from the Beta directory and store that in the correct directory,that will fix this bug you reported.

Hi Jos,

I've just tested with your provided beta, It solved the bug However this mean my script will take no action with obfuscator function..? and it's not safety. I expected your beta version just skip all UTF8 char in my script and could take action with other things...but it didn't, i am correct?.

[Jos]

Correct Obfuscator can't handle any UTF encoded files when doing actual Obfuscation and will likely never support UTF files as I have stopped any development for the Obfuscation process.

I might one day add the UTF support for the Stripping functionality but have no concrete plans yet.

I don't know what you mean by it not being safe as Obfuscation doesn't make your source safe either.

The new Beta is AutoItwrapper which only runs the different utilities.

Hi Jos,

My script must use UTF format because of supporting my country language. As you mentioned Obfuscator can't handle any UTF encoded files then..What if the script including many other .au3 files which are not UTF format?, Does Obfuscator function takes effect with those included files?....

Obfuscator will stop processing when any of the files required is UTF encoded because it cannot process widecharacters at this moment and would basically cripple your script when it would continue.
