Registry plugin

[Instructor]

If anyone can test this version of the registry plugin for Pocket PC?

[XPero]

Can you please add support for version 5 of Windows Registry?

[Instructor]

For what you need Windows Registry 5?

[XPero]

For exporting reg keys data containing paths. For example, if the Data of a REG_SZ is "E:\My Things\My Thing.myext", the exported reg key won't work with your Registry Plugin. At least, it didnt for me. The hex conversion isn't right.

[Instructor]

Registry plugin was successfully tested with all my registry in Windows 95/Me/XP. There few paths in it

the exported reg key won't work with your Registry Plugin

What the plugin call, what the errorlevel, what the output file, what your key contents when you exporting it with the regedit.exe?

[XPero]

I will post later next week (busy at the moment) the reg file created by your plugin and the one created using Regedit.exe so you can compare them.

[Instructor]

OK. And I hope you use the latest version.

[XPero]

Works now with latest version. Thanks

New: "PPC-Registry" plugin - registry plugin for Pocket PC. All thanks to Thomas Bednarz (Smart Solutions AG)

Changed: registry::Read reduce number of parameters

Fixed: registry::SaveKey does not convert short roots to long (HKLM->HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE)

Updated: "ConvFunc.h" to v1.5

Updated: "StrFunc.h" to v1.6

Changed: Now plugin used header "Registry.nsh" ("PPC-Registry.nsh") for custom user variables and
              better compile errors check.

Update from previous versions:
         - Insert line in script:
            !include "Registry.nsh"
         - Replace:
            registry::Open -> ${registry::Open} ...
         - Replace:
            .r0 -> $0, .r1 -> $1 ... .R0 -> $R0, .R1 -> $R1 ...


"Registry" plugin v2.0

This reg_multi_sz is not working

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager:PendingFileRenameOperations

variable only contains the first line - values are seperated by an empty line eg:

code:
\??\C:\DOKUME~1\user\LOKALE~1\Temp\~nsu.tmp\Au_.exe



\??\C:\DOKUME~1\user\LOKALE~1\Temp\~nsu.tmp\Au_.exe



\??\C:\DOKUME~1\user\LOKALE~1\Temp\nse274.tmp\registry.dll

[Instructor]

"PendingFileRenameOperations" value has two NULL characters normally this means that value ended (one NULL character - end of line)

code:


"PendingFileRenameOperations"=hex(7):5c,3f,3f,5c,43,3a,5c,57,49,4e,4e,54,5c,73,\

  79,73,74,65,6d,33,32,5c,73,70,6f,6f,6c,5c,44,52,49,56,45,52,53,5c,43,4f,4c,\

  4f,52,5c,4e,65,77,00,00,5c,3f,3f,5c,43,3a,5c,44,4f,43,55,4d,45,7e,31,5c,73,\

  61,61,5c,4c,4f,43,41,4c,53,7e,31,5c,54,65,6d,70,5c,6e,73,61,31,42,38,42,2e,\

  74,6d,70,5c,52,65,67,69,73,74,72,79,2e,64,6c,6c,00,00,5c,3f,3f,5c,43,3a,5c ...

I'll see what I can do.

[Instructor]

Fixed: registry::Read interpret empty line of REG_MULTI_SZ value as end of value.
Updated: "ConvFunc.h" to v1.6


"Registry" plugin v2.1

[deleted]

[Brummelchen]

Thank you much top da man ^^

erks, sorry - nearly.

when i empty that key manually this remains

"PendingFileRenameOperations"=hex(7):00

registry::read shows me a blank value.

maybe you can fix this too ?


some nasty code to avoid it:

  ;pending operations ?
  ClearErrors
    ${registry::Read} "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager" "PendingFileRenameOperations" $R9 $R8
  StrCmp $R9 "" no_pending
    StrLen $R8 $R9
    StrCmp $R8 1 no_pending
    ${registry::Unload}
    ;your action here
      Quit
  no_pending:
    ${registry::Unload} 

[Instructor]

Please download v2.1 again, I forgot one thing in fix.

[Brummelchen]

somethings really going bad now - the installer quits on starting the plugin and remains the temp folder
