g52 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 (edited) Hi, How to set the correct encoding for STDERR_CHILD and STDOUT_CHILD in this code? Output messages are not OK Will anyone advise? Thank you. Example() Func Example() Local $iPID = Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'net start Apache' , "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) Local $sOutput = "" While 1 $sOutput = StdoutRead($iPID) If @error Then ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StdoutRead returns an error. ExitLoop EndIf MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Stdout Read:", $sOutput) WEnd While 1 $sOutput = StderrRead($iPID) If @error Then ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StderrRead returns an error. ExitLoop EndIf MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Stderr Read:", $sOutput) WEnd EndFunc ;==>Example Edited April 27, 2017 by g52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Try using the Binary mode of the StdErr/StdOutRead functions, then convert to text using BinaryToString using one of the Unicode format flags. 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.

kylomas Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 g52, Try concatenating the output stream to $sOutput. I don't think you need the 2nd loop...

Gianni Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 @g52, run directly the "net" command instead of with the @ComSpec in the middle, Using @ComSpec you will bind the i/o streams of CMD while you will lose the control of "net" command that is fired by CMD but when started it runs away from your stream's control try with something like this: #include <AutoItConstants.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> Example() Func Example() Local $sOutput = "" ; Local $iPID = Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'net start Apache' , "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) Local $iPID = Run('net start Apache', "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_MERGED) Do $sOutput = StdoutRead($iPID) If $sOutput <> "" Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Stdout Read:", $sOutput) Until @error ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StdoutRead returns an error.

kylomas Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Chimp, The OP is over writing the output variable with every line streamed ($sOutput = StdoutRead($iPID)). He/she probably wants "$sOutput &= stdoutread($IPID)". Quote Using @ComSpec you will bind the i/o streams of CMD while you will lose the control of "net" command This is a new one on me, if true, thanks for teaching me something! kylomas Forum Rules Procedure for posting code "I like pigs.

g52 Posted April 28, 2017 Author Share Posted April 28, 2017 Thank you very much for your help I tried #include <AutoItConstants.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> #include <StringConstants.au3> Example() Func Example() Local $sOutput = "" Local $iPID = Run('net start Apache', "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_MERGED) Do $sOutput = StdoutRead($iPID, "", True) If $sOutput <> "" Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Stdout Read:", BinaryToString($sOutput, $SB_UTF8)) EndIf Until @error ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StdoutRead returns an error. EndFunc The result is still not right :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianni Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 @g52, can you try this script?, it should encode the stdoutread data in different ways to see if there is one correct encoding. #include <AutoItConstants.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> Example() Func Example() Local $sOutput = "" ; Local $iPID = Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'net start Apache' , "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD) Local $iPID = Run('net start Apache', "", @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_MERGED) Do $sOutput = StdoutRead($iPID, False, True) ; reads the data as binary instead of text If $sOutput <> "" Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Stdout Read:", _ "1 ANSI " & BinaryToString($sOutput, 1) & @CRLF & _ "2 UTF16LE " & BinaryToString($sOutput, 2) & @CRLF & _ "3 UTF16BE " & BinaryToString($sOutput, 3) & @CRLF & _ "4 UTF8 " & BinaryToString($sOutput, 4)) Until @error ; Exit the loop if the process closes or StdoutRead returns an error.
