reg2au3

Very useful script, thanks a lot

[rpolito30]

I am not able to get this download. Can you send it to me? rpolito30@hotmail.com

ever wanted to write many registry keys at once using regwrite within a script ??

tired about fileinstall a .reg file and run regedit -s ??

this script helps you converting your .reg files (exported with regedit from registry)

to .au3 code ready to paste into your script.

yes, it can read UNICODE files (exported with windows 2000/xp).

Unicode-Reading is limited to ANSI-Code only!

an other handicap is that autoit could not write every kind of registry

value types like REG_NONE or REG_LINK and others.

look at my way to read a simple unicode text file ...

the script is not well commented yet - give it a try.

comments / ideas are welcome.

Great utility. I use it often.

I removed redundant variable DIMs, and fixed the REG_BINARY type handling to work properly.

Agreed - this is a fantastic utility, and massive thanks to all involved in its development!

I have one question, though... One of the reg files I'm trying to convert uses hex( - that's a b wrapped in brackets, in case the forum makes it a smiley - which is still showing as an unsupported type.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R18.0\ACAD-8005:409\MiniDump]
"AccumulatedUptime"=hex( b ) : 66,8d,09,08,00,00,00,00
"AccumulatedCalUptime"=hex(B):de,de,1f,87,00,00,00,00

In the registry, this shows up as a
"AccumulatedCalUptime"
REG_QWORD
d4 62 94 a2 00 00 00 00

"AccumulatedUptime"
REG_QWORD
c2 da 28 0d 00 00 00 00

Normally, I like to have a crack at things like this myself as I hate looking like some kind of leech - but I'm afraid anything to do with maths sends me into a wibbling heap!!

I can modify the generated au3 script for my particular requirements by hard-coding what is meant to be put in as a QWORD, but it seems a shame that this powerful script can't handle this particular type of string.

Is there any chance some kind soul out there fancies tackling this?

Regards,

Gerard

To my knowledge, AutoIt does not support the HEX type.
