 Posted: Sun Jan 15, 2023 9:56 pm Post subject: Lua Script (Win API) Not Work After Windows Upadate |
 |
|
1. According to MS I knew DWM has suspended since Windows 8.
Anyhow, before my Windows update to Windows 10 64 Bit, I tried using DWM function and work just fine. Now, on CE 7.4 64 bit, on my Windows 10 64 bir, I got this error :
| Code: | | Error:Failure determining what dwmapi.DwmEnableComposition means |
How this happen and how to fix it?.
2. I tried using undocumented function 'SetWindowCompositionAttribute' to make form blur like like on Windows 7, since the function DWM API Blur behind window, can not use.
| Code: | if f then f.destroy() end
f = createForm()
f.Position = poScreenCenter
f.BorderStyle = bsNone
f.setSize(600, 400)
f.Color = 0xEDA200
f.OnMouseDown = function() f.dragNow() end
function SetWindowCompositionAttribute(hwnd, data)
return executeCodeLocalEx("user32.SetWindowCompositionAttribute", hwnd, data)
end
--WindowsCompostionAttributeData = {Attribute = 0, Pdata = 0, SizeOfData = 0}
ACCENT_DISABLED = 0
ACCENT_ENABLE_GRADIENT = 1
ACCENT_ENABLE_TRANSPARENTGRADIENT = 2
ACCENT_ENABLE_BLURBEHIND = 3
ACCENT_INVALID_STATE = 4
WCA_ACCENT_POLICY = 19
accent = createMemoryStream()
accent.writeDword(ACCENT_ENABLE_BLURBEHIND)
dt = [[
data = WindowsCompostionAttributeData
data.Attribute = WCA_ACCENT_POLICY
data.SizeOfData = accent.Size
data.Pdata = readPointer(accent.Memory)
]]
data = createMemoryStream()
data.writeDword(19)
data.writeDword(accent.Size) -- Marshal Size Of accent
data.writeDword(readPointerLocal(accent)) -- VarPtr(accent)
SetWindowCompositionAttribute(f.Handle, data.Memory)
f.Show() |
But unlucky the script doesn't work.
How to write the script correctly in CE Lua?. In case this function SetWindowCompositionAttribute jut work fine when I am use C++ or Delphi. Any solutions?

maybe it has been renamed and microsoft just added a compatibility rename
check enumerate dll's and symbols and see if you can find it.
or see where it goes to when debugging in c++ or Delphi

Yes, I know that dwmapi.dll still there on system32 or SysWOW64.
Anyhow, when using CE 7.4 Bit on Windows 10 64 bit, when try to load a function i.e : "DwmExtendFrameItoClientAre" or others functions won by dwmapi.dll, CE 7.4 return error "Error:Failure determining what....function name".
That just work find when I try on my other machine, Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit + CE 7.4 64 bit.
The screenshot arttach using Windows 10 64 Bit, shown the dwmapi function still there.
P.S : and CE 7.4 doen't have function "createLib", except add a plug-in and I don;t have that plug-in.

load the dll into cheat engine explicitly and then do a reinitializeSelfSymbolhandler()

Like this?. If yes then thanks DB.
| Code: | dwmExtend = assert( package.loadlib( "C:\\Windows\\system32\\dwmapi.dll", "DwmExtendFrameIntoClientArea" ) )
reinitializeSelfSymbolhandler(dwmExtend)
-- result : Loaded
|
Another test :
Test 1 :
| Code: | sm = assert( package.loadlib( "C:\\Windows\\system32\\user32.dll", "MessageBoxA" ) )
reinitializeSelfSymbolhandler(sm)
MB_OK = 0
MB_ICONERROR = 16
sm(0, "An error has occurred!", "Title!", MB_OK)()
-- result : ERROR. Acces Violation |
Test 2 :
| Code: | function mbox(hWnd, lpText, lpCaption, uType)
return executeCodeLocalEx("user32.MessageBoxA", hWnd, lpText, lpCaption, uType)
end
mbox(0, "An error has occurred!", "Title!", MB_ICONERROR or MB_OK)
-- Result as attached image
