runret command returns some gibberish characters and the null character

Post by dicktatorc »

runret command returns some gibberish characters and the null character.

Code: Select all

text runret(lax("<xypath>\sDelete\sdelete64.exe" -r -s -f "B:\下载\026.ts"));
result:

Code: Select all

S D e l e t e   v 2 . 0 5   -   S e c u r e   f i l e   d e l e t e
 
 C o p y r i g h t   ( C )   1 9 9 9 - 2 0 2 3   M a r k   R u s s i n o v i c h
 
 S y s i n t e r n a l s   -   w w w . s y s i n t e r n a l s . c o m
 
 
 
 S D e l e t e   i s   s e t   f o r   1   p a s s .
 
 B : \ N}廫 0 2 5 . t s . . . d e l e t e d .
 
 
 
 F i l e s   d e l e t e d :   1
"B:\下载\026.ts" appears to be "B : \ N}廫 0 2 5 . t s" which contains gibberish characters.
how to solve this problem?
by the way, the software i'm using in here:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysin ... ds/sdelete

Looks like UTF-16. The codepage parameter of runret should be able to handle this.

text runret(lax("<xypath>\sDelete\sdelete64.exe" -r -s -f <selitems>), , 1200);
text runret(lax("<xypath>\sDelete\sdelete64.exe" -r -s -f <selitems>), , 1201);
text runret(lax("<xypath>\sDelete\sdelete64.exe" -r -s -f <selitems>), , 12000);
text runret(lax("<xypath>\sDelete\sdelete64.exe" -r -s -f <selitems>), , 12001);
return nothing, just plain blank.

text runret(lax("<xypath>\sDelete\sdelete64.exe" -r -s -f <selitems>), , 936);
text runret(lax("<xypath>\sDelete\sdelete64.exe" -r -s -f <selitems>), , 65001);
just return null characters and garbled characters as before.

Confirmed. Fixed it. This will work without any codepage parameter in the next beta:

Code: Select all

text runret(lax("<xypath>\sDelete\sdelete64.exe" -r -s -f "B:\下载\026.ts"));

Hmm, works here.

Try this and post the result:

Code: Select all

text runret(lax("<xypath>\sDelete\sdelete64.exe" -r -s -f "B:\下载\026.ts"), 3:=1);

by the way, the only solution i got is to redirect the result to a file and then read it. but i don't like to write data to hard drive, compared to write directly through memory.
