I am trying to call GetComputerNameA
from AutoIt, this is my code:
Local $mystruct = DllStructCreate(toStr("struct;dword;char[1024];endstruct"))
DllStructSetData($mystruct, 1, 1024)
Local $result = DllCall("kernel32.dll", "int", "GetComputerNameA", "ptr", DllStructGetPtr($mystruct, 2), "ptr", DllStructGetPtr($mystruct, 1))
MsgBox(0, "AutoIt", "Success")
But after I run it, it doesn't print anything, like the script crashed without errors.
Any idea why it failed to call it?
It has two parameters, specifically:
BOOL GetComputerNameA(
LPSTR lpBuffer,
LPDWORD nSize
);
The first is a LPSTR
(pointer to a char
array), the second is a LPDWORD
(pointer to an unsigned int
).
Here is how you'd call that:
Func _get_computer_name()
Local $dll_struct = DllStructCreate("char[17]")
$sz = DllStructCreate('int')
Local $x = DllCall("kernel32.dll","int","GetComputerNameA","ptr",DllStructGetPtr($dll_struct),"int_ptr",DllStructGetPtr($sz))
Return DllStructGetData($dll_Struct,1)
EndFunc
