Opening .RARS

[Innovative]

Hello all,

I have some problems with the script

I wanted to have

Run("Program name")

But the program is inside an RAR file.. It just cant find the file inside the rar..

How can i make it works without extratcting the file out?

THank you ,

doubt that you can...... the system will always need to extract it first to be able to run the program ...

It's impossible in common case, I think. You should extract file (maybe as temporary one) and after then launch it. One note to consider this conclusion: Any executive started is blocked by Windows, so you can't delete it before it's ending.

If I'm wrong then any remarks will be appreciated.

However some languages use it's scripts directly from archives/URL/RAM/... ie autoit/java/php/cgi/...

Is there a script to auto-extract the file from the RAR ?

Is there a script to auto-extract the file from the RAR ?

$ScriptDir = @ScriptDir 
$dirFileRaR = @ScriptDir & "\dirFileRaR\"
$temp = @ScriptDir & "\temp"
$file = "file.rar "
$command = $ScriptDir & "\rar.exe E " & $dirFileRaR & $file & $temp
Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & $command, "", @SW_HIDE)
