Write in memory special char

[RivaLfr]

Hi,

I have an problem, I use lua (for reloger) and if the player name use an special char I have an lua error.

I have try much possibility, and this not work all time

Sample:
Memory.Memory.MyHook.Memory.WriteBytes(DoStringArg_Codecave, Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(command));

If you have any ideas.

Thank

I have find an solution:

            string t = "";
            foreach (var b in Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("häràk"))
            {
                if (t != "")
                    t = t + ", ";
                t = t + Convert.ToInt32(b);
            }
            string playerName = "string.char(" + t + ")";

           Lua.LuaDoString("print(" + playerName  + ");");

// playerName == string.char(72, 195, 164, 114, 195, 160, 107) == häràk

It should work just fine with Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes.

Btw, it returns { 104, 195, 164, 114, 195, 160, 107 } for your string.

h = 104
H = 72

Are you in-process? How do you call Lua_DoString?

Also, all strings should ends with 0x00.

Pay attention to the EOF '\0', GetBytes() will not give you this key trail.

@Rival, dont you have to process the byte of each char then store it, or does that func readbites of the whole stringset?

@Neffarian, are u related to wowgremlin ?

Thanks for your reply.

I am in-process and I call luadostring with asm code (hook).

I have only an lua error if I use

if string.lower(GetCharacterInfo(i)) == string.lower("häràk") then ...

if I use

Print("häràk")

this work, is strange but with

string.char

this work all time.
