 |
|
Heheh, well, uh, my C++ GUI tutorial never mentioned reading editboxes text. And I was going to make a crackme in C++, but I need to know how to do that. My other problem is I need to know the functions that carry out the same tasks as AnsiPos() and StringReplace()
Edit:
I can do it in a console application, but I really wanna do a windows application

It says that GetWindowText is for retrieving the title bar of the window. Wait, could I put like hEdit as the handle?
| Code: |
string *lpBuffer[];
while(1)
{
GetWindowText(
hEdit,
lpBuffer,
strlen(lpBuffer+1) /*wait am I allowed to do that(i don't think =()*/
);
}

"It says that GetWindowText is for retrieving the title bar of the window"
Nope. GetWindowText gets the "caption" of a window. However, an editbox is a window. And its caption is its contents. So, titlebar of a Window is the same thing as the contents of an EditBox.

GetDlgItemText or GetWindowText. It seems get window text would be easier feor me.
Found this code on theForgers win32 application tutorials:
| Code: |
int len = GetWindowTextLength(GetDlgItem(hwnd, IDC_TEXT));
if(len > 0)
{
int i;
char* buf;
buf = (char*)GlobalAlloc(GPTR, len + 1);
GetDlgItemText(hwnd, IDC_TEXT, buf, len + 1);
//... do stuff with text ...
GlobalFree((HANDLE)buf);
}
|
That works right? If so, the //... do stuff with text ... part is where I would do the editing. Anyway, so if its right, what are the two functions in C++ that would do the same thing as AnsiPos and StringReplace in delphi. Because I can do it in a console, but not a window.
