RCG needs help with possible poison characters (getting clos

Posted: 29 Oct 2012 17:46
by timbertuck
I created a RCG, nothing new there as they are a dime a dozen. But i need help on getting the Extended Character Set (as well as the Special) to generate properly. it breaks when using "E" or "S" for the character set, but all the others; A, AN, H, N work as designed.
you can run the program either by:
1) typing in Rand7
and use E or S for the CharSet
or
2) typing in Rand7 4 4 4 E N

There are two other places that could look nicer :shock: , these are:
1) if defined rand16 set Result!maxcount!= found at the outerend loop
and
2) if defined result%%a if "%1"=="/s" endlocal & found at the end loop

i was able to put the #2 in a for /L loop but couldn't fathom a way to condense it further
trying to put #1 in a for /L loop didn't work at all. i would appreciate any help on making these more succinct code even though it works as it is.

note: i did write a basic program that worked on all characters but the double quote and wanted to achieve the same with a batch file.

idea's or thoughts?

echo %0 will create a block of random code based on your input.
echo.
echo The program will ask for character set, loop count, byte size and repeat byte.
echo.
echo The max for loop count  is 64
echo The max for byte size   is 16
echo The max for repeat byte is 16
echo.
echo Thus the max block size is 16K, you will need to extend the DOS console
echo session so that the screen buffer width is 250 or greater, so that will
echo fit the entire block on a page. You will need to be able to scroll to 
echo capture the entire block. Remember to press Enter to complete the copy.
echo.
echo The character set can be one of the following:   Unique Key's
echo ________   ___________________________________ ____________
echo.
echo Alpha    - Upper and Lower Case A-Z, a-z   ^(52^)
echo Extended - Alpha + Number + Special Characters   ^(93^)
echo Hex    - Hexadecimal A-Z,0-9         ^(16^)
echo Number    - Numbers 0-9            ^(10^)
echo AlphaNum - AlphaNumeric A-Z, a-z, 0-9      ^(62^)
echo.
echo This program will produce ^("to the best of its known abilites"^) completely 
echo random code.
echo.
echo The default charcter set is Hex, Loop Count, Byte Size and Repeat Byte is 4.  
echo This is a 64 byte block of random code to use as you deem fit. 
echo Max possibilites 1.157920892373162e+077
echo.
echo Tip: You can use the Edit-^>Mark command of the console to mark a block of text,
echo hit enter to save selected text. Then you can paste into another document or 
echo program.
echo.
echo Tip: Set the properties of the CMD.EXE to Quick Edit mode. Then mark text with 
echo Left click and Drag, Right click to copy selected text. Paste to document or 
echo program.
echo.
echo Tip: to save the result(s) to the environment table, use the /s switch. Type 
echo "SET result" to view the ouptut of %0. Note: Running a subsuquent %0 
echo without the /s switch will clear the previous output to the environment table.

you can run the program either by:
1) typing in Rand7
and use E or S for the CharSet
or
2) typing in Rand7 4 4 4 E N

Sorry, have no clue what your question even is. Perhaps you meant it as a private message to someone intimately familiar with your RCG? "Extended character set" and "special characters" ring some bells, but get lost in the mass of code. If you could shrink it down to a (few) line(s) that demonstrate the issue (and nothing but), that could help your cause and elicit better response.

Your code is running my batch files - this time below it ran N.BAT (nero is not installed) and earlier it ran J.BAT

Is it broken in some manner?

Code: Select all

d:\folder> a.bat 4 4 4 E N

Generating a block size of 64 characters

 %Result1%  =  9 6       if 1==4 goto outerend3 ;D f Z X T 8 ?
The system cannot find the file c:\Program Files\Nero 8\Nero Burning Rom\nero.exe.

Hey foxidrive,

oh yes it is broken as you can see by the error message (there is nothing in my code about nero though).

first run:
RAND7 4 4 4 H N
and you will get:
%Result1% = 6AE5D0B3E035B8C4
%Result2% = FD28A75E0A6BE7D1
%Result3% = F2EF06DE06F9C52D
%Result4% = 99E22CE934976351

then run
RAND7 4 4 4 A N
and you will get:
%Result1% = lfFZhOeHBkhuRYmE
%Result2% = JgbhpVVgvtiMpfRL
%Result3% = CKJghUWHIlqnuMng
%Result4% = CwSluCsDwDiCUMuo

works for "H", "A", "AN","N" (as parameter #4)

but when you run either "E" or "S", you get broken results as so:
%Result1% = *j M if 1==4 goto outerendt }f F o ;z if 3==4 goto outerendf
%Result2% = $[n b 6 V if 2==4 goto outerendD s c if 3==4 goto outerend`f *}
%Result3% = .P M [n Z G D 3 u if 3==4 goto outerendB K o S
%Result4% = [t x ]:,D 5 ;h ~d [?

the Extended Set (as well as the Special Set) contain all of the keyboard "special" keys other than A-Z, a-z, 0-9, of which there are 33 (to include the SPACE character).

i know that using ^! or ^% cause problems (one is emitting a backspace) which is why they are in the reserved set, but all the other characters should emit properly
try by doing:
echo !s:~1,1!
echo !s:~3,1!
echo !s:~5,1!
.....
echo !s:~65,1!
you can see that it walks up the !S! character set from left to right using the above echo's. but one or more of them is causing the problem to break.

any insights?

The random code generator has 5 parameters, the fourth of which is the type of Character Set. All work except "E" and "S", both of which contain special characters. if you run the program without any parameters, it will revert to interrogatory mode and ask you for input. then it generates the code. the program works except when trying to use S or E.

i tried to condense it but without a good section of the code, it broke at that point. so if you could just run it, you will see that by using the defaults, it will generate a block of code. but change the charset from H to E and it breaks.

Rand7
# - Repeat Loop (1-64)
# - Qty Sets (1-16)
# - ByteCount (1-16)
X - CharSet (A-AN-E-H-N-S)
X - Delimiter Usage (Y-N)

so the question is how to use the E or S character set and have it generate without breaking

so i tried to shrink it, but this works or appears to work as i can't get it to break like RAND7. notice it is not emitting the space correctly.

In your code you have the Result!maxcount! variable that must accumulate the value of several Rand... variables. The usual way to do that is initializing Result!maxcount! to an empty string and then accumulate the desired variables in a FOR loop:

Code: Select all

set Result!maxcount!=
for /L %%i in (1,1,%%b) do (
   set Result!maxcount!=!Result!maxcount!!!Rand%%i!%SS%
   rem new_value       =previous_value    etc...
)
However, this would require a double delayed expansion: first on !maxcount! and then on !Result!maxcount!!. The for %%r in (Result!maxcount!) command achieve the first expansion and put Result!maxcount! in %%r, so a further !%%r! achieve the required double expansion. 8)

You may even use this trick to do a three level delayed expansion (or more) in the same line with several nested for commands :wink:

Way Cool Antonio, :P

now to find a way to do just that (three level), so let me search for something to fill in the blanks. i will be asking about this again.

just love this place..you guys are uber-guru's! :roll:


now on the OP, how can i get the (E)xtended or (S)pecial character set to work? All my work is for naught if i can't find out why its not working right???

And then there is the other kludge at the :end loop. how can i condense that?
if defined result%%a if "%1"=="/s" endlocal & set

The problem with this part is that the endlocal must be executed in the same line that all sets, but I think it can be solved this way:

Code: Select all

      for /L %%a in (16,-1,1) do (
         if defined result%%a if "%1"=="/s" (
            set preserve=endlocal
            for /L %%i in (1,1,%%a) do (
               set preserve=!preserve! ^& set Result%%i=%%Result%%i%%
            )
            call !preserve!
         )
      )

hmmm i think i need some sleep cause its not working. i mean i can run RAND7 /S and it generates the code but does not save it to the RESULT vars.

i think i see what your doing but again i need to recharge so i will look at this in the morning. Thanks again Antonio for helping out.

TT

EDIT: you can call an expanded var?? hmmm another new thing for me to look at...

EDIT: so i dumbed down :shock: what you did to this (just the first instance), let me know if its correct??

Code: Select all

if defined result1 if "%1"=="/s" set preserve=endlocal ^& set Result1=%%Result1%%
call !preserve!


so its not working though, im on my first cup of joe and the brain is a tickin :P

what i find fascinating is the call line. i hadnt seen this before (or if i did, i glossed over it) and that is way cool. so i did this little test to see if i understood the components.

Code: Select all

set %result1%=hello
set preserve=echo.helloWorld ^& set result1=%%Result1%%
call %preserve%


and wallah, output was helloWorld

this use of a unexpanded var with the call command is like calling a macro, eh? so i checked by doing a CALL /? and no where is there a hint that you can call a variable this way. So can you point me in the right direction or maybe explain a little further.

so neat though and you can do input in the macro, like this:

Code: Select all

set preserve=echo.hello ^& set result1=%%Result1%% ^& set /pVar="Input Y/N? "

what else can you do with this structure (meaning neat stuff)??

Thanks for your help

Re: RCG needs help with possible poison characters

Posted: 06 Nov 2012 11:27

So i have gotten this so far, it doesnt break when running the Extended or Special Set, however it doesnt emit properly (in that it does not generate a full byteCount on the result line and has lots of spaces which is in the reserved envars) so can someone add some further input on why this isn't displaying correctly? I know im close but still need a nudge in the right direction.

the other section at the end (if %1==/s) that antonio was trying to help out doesnt save the environment variables either, would like to know why.

thanks for all of your help.

note on the E and S charset, as you can see im echoing the entire %S% set, then each odd char in %S%, then each odd on the same line, then the reserved characters. none of them break, they all emit properly, so im confused as to why the code isnt working for E and S.


to run, just run RANDOM7, choose S or E for CharSet, 64 for Loop Count and default all the rest.
