UnRAR allows you to unpack RAR achives into memory or the current directory (at the moment).

The math plug-in has also be updated to allow a string to float value to be returned.
Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...

Let me know if there's any problems - I haven't got the instructions up and running properly yet, athough there is an example program.

It always says "Der Prozedureinstiegspunkt "RARSetPassword" wurde in der DLL "urar.dll" nicht gefunden" and "Failed to load DLL(2: urar.dll).

Is it still failing to load UNRAR.DLL ? It must be placed in with the executable, whilst URAR.DLL must be in with the plug-ins.

Hi,

Until the print "Store:";store;" ";ptr line, the program runs well and all contained files are extracted.

But, in my case, I've experienced some errors with the following part of the example program:

print "Store:";store;" ";ptr
wait key
if RARExtractToMemory(UNRAR_STARTPROCESS,ptr,store,"c:\test.rar")=1
while RARExtractToFile(UNRAR_CONTINUEPROCESS,ptr,"")=1
print "File Size:";peekDL(store,0)
print "Extracted:";peekString$(store,12,0,0)
endwhile
endif

If a change the name of the file, only in that line, say to "test1.rar" then the program continues to the next part of the code:

x=RARCloseArchive()

print "Dynamic allocation"
if RARExtractToMemory(UNRAR_STARTPROCESS,ptr,0,"c:\bed.rar")=1
while RARExtractToMemory(UNRAR_CONTINUEPROCESS,ptr,0,"")=1
addr=peekL(ptr,8)
print "addr:";addr
print "Mem:";addr
print "Extracted:";peekString$(addr,0,0,0)
endwhile
endif
x=RARCloseArchive()
wait key
delete memory (ptr)
delete memory (store)
end

... however, all the printed data for "addr:", "mem:" and "extracted" in this part don't make sense (weird chars).

I did make a mistake with the example program, which I haven't uploaded to my web site yet...

Can you also e-mail me the RAR file - you will get strange characters in the 'Extracted' line if the unpack file isn't a text one.

Actually I tested it with the "titlesequence.rar" file that you uploaded to your site.

Ah, yes that isn't a text file. In that case the dynamic/static extraction to memory wont display anything meaningfull, as its not a text file.

However, it should still extract everything in there...

Well yes, the files are in fact extracted.

Could you pls let's know when the correct example program is uploaded to your website? I'd like to know why the program crashes after the print "Store:";store;" ";ptr line.

One other thing - the largest size in TitleSequence.rar is 1727917, which means that the static buffer size will need to be increase to at least this size.

There is the same DLL in WinRAR, you can use it free and you needn't to write your own.
