Complex Dll Call?

[pixartist]

i'd like to call this function http://www.winpcap.org/docs/docs31/html/gr...pfunc.html#ga55

from autoit, but i have no idea how to create the needed structs and datatypes in autoit!

help me please !

thx

A simple call in my point of view

$auth = DLLStructCreate("int;char[100];char[100]")
$alldevs = DLLStructCreate("ptr", DLLStructGetPtr(DLLStructCreate("ptr;char[100];char[100];ptr;uint")))
DLLCall("name_of_dll", "int", "pcap_findalldevs_ex", "str", $source, "ptr", DLLStructGetPtr($auth), "ptr", DLLStructGetPtr($alldevs), "str", $errorbuff )

im using the new beta..

C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\FFS\Desktop\AU3scripts\pcap.au3(3,50) : ERROR: DLLStructCreate(): undefined function.

$auth = DLLStructCreate("int;char[100];char[100]")

Doesn't look like your using Beta... make sure if your using SciTe your using Alt+F5 to run it.

thx, that works now .. but when i create a struct like this

DLLStructCreate("ptr", DLLStructGetPtr(DLLStructCreate("ptr;char[100];char[100];ptr;uint")))

how do i access the "ptr;char[100];char[100];ptr;uint" stuff?

so how do i get the data of the object referenced by the pointer?

this does not work :

$source = "rpcap://";
$err = "";
$auth = DLLStructCreate("int;char[100];char[100]")
$devs = DLLStructCreate("ptr;char[100];char[100];ptr;uint")
$alldevs = DLLStructCreate("ptr", DLLStructGetPtr($devs))
DLLCall("wpcap.dll", "int", "pcap_findalldevs_ex", "str", $source, "ptr", DLLStructGetPtr($auth), "ptr", DLLStructGetPtr($alldevs), "str", $err )
MsgBox(0,$err, DllStructGetData ( $devs, 3))

$source = "rpcap://";
$err = "";
$auth = DLLStructCreate("int;char[100];char[100]")
$devs = DLLStructCreate("ptr;char[100];char[100];ptr;uint")
$alldevs = DLLStructCreate("ptr", DLLStructGetPtr($devs))
DLLCall("wpcap.dll", "int", "pcap_findalldevs_ex", "str", $source, "ptr", DLLStructGetPtr($auth), "ptr", DLLStructGetPtr($alldevs), "str", $err )
$name = DllStructGetData ( $devs, 3)
MsgBox(0,$err, $name)

well, as DllStructGetData ( $devs, 3) is a char[100] it should return as a string...but the message box just displays nothing!
