Libcod for windows

[kung foo man]

I just checked what I did actually different in my version and the only relevant change is in main.cpp:

		#include "main.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include "include/functions.h"
#include "include/cracking.h"
#include "include/gsc.h"

DWORD WINAPI MyThread(LPVOID);
DWORD g_threadID;
HMODULE g_hModule;

static int isStarted = 0;
DWORD WINAPI MyThread(LPVOID)
{
    if (isStarted) {
        Com_Printf("Already started!\n");
        return NULL;
    }
    isStarted = 1;
    Com_Printf("[PLUGIN LOADED]\n");
    #if COD_VERSION == COD2_1_3
        cracking_hook_call(0x46E7BF, (int)Scr_GetCustomFunction);
        cracking_hook_call(0x46EA03, (int)Scr_GetCustomMethod);
    #endif

    return 0;
}

extern "C" DLL_EXPORT BOOL APIENTRY DllMain(HINSTANCE hinstDLL, DWORD fdwReason, LPVOID lpvReserved)
{
    Com_Printf("DllMain()\n");
    switch (fdwReason)
    {
        case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH:
            g_hModule = hinstDLL;
            DisableThreadLibraryCalls(hinstDLL);
           CloseHandle(CreateThread(NULL, 0, &MyThread, NULL, 0, &g_threadID));
           MyThread(NULL);
            break;

        case DLL_THREAD_ATTACH:
            // attach to thread
            break;

        case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH:
            Com_Printf("[PLUGIN UNLOADED]\n");
            FreeLibraryAndExitThread(g_hModule, 0);
            break;

        case DLL_THREAD_DETACH:
            Com_Printf("[THREAD DETACH]\n");
            break;
    }
    return TRUE; // succesful
} 
	

That's were I had all my problems as well: server crashed or just didn't work at all.

Changes in SmartGit:



I guess the CloseHandle(CreateThread()) is just not doing anything and could be commented out also. I call MyThread() without threading, since it is just hooking the two functions nonetheless.

When it still doesn't work, check the Com_Printf() to figure out to what point the code actually did something:

File: functions.h

		#if COD_VERSION == COD2_1_3
    #if 0
    static Com_Printf_t Com_Printf = (Com_Printf_t)0x0431EE0;
    #else
    static FILE *f = NULL;
    static int Com_Printf(const char *format, ...) {
        if (f == NULL) {
            f = fopen("libcod.txt", "a+");
            //fclose(f);
        }
        fprintf(f, "%s", format);
        fflush(f);
    }
    #endif
#else
    static Com_Printf_t Com_Printf = (Com_Printf_t)NULL;
    #warning Com_Printf_t Com_Printf = NULL;
#endif

Thank you!
Unfortunately this DLL does not work on my machine either
(when injecting the dll the CoD2 server console throws this unknown function script compile error for not finding a libcod-function)

It might be because it is linked against the mysql library.
Try to copy libmysql.dll (in lib/) with the libcod dll.

Thanks, this did the trick!
I also had to use the -m32 flag in compiler and linker settings to build a 32bit dll (when using TDM-GCC64), now its working

I added basic support for 1.0. But i haven't tested all the functions. So it might be that some functions don't work yet. Probably the entity and vector return value.

https://github.com/M-itch/libcod_win...d9436e4e13b717

I also included kung's injector loop (with a dll check).

Edit: status 1.0

Working
- All param functions are working (string, int, float, vector)
- string, int and float return functions are working
- ip/ping are working

Not working/untested
- Vector, entity and array return functions haven't been tested yet
- All player functions haven't been tested yet (except ip/ping)

Edit 2: https://github.com/M-itch/libcod_win...2b230f5cd3985f (Added player functions to 1.0, build 2)
Edit 3: https://github.com/M-itch/libcod_win...01c2f823c9490a (fix vector stack push, build 3)
Edit 3: https://github.com/M-itch/libcod_win...f943c86cfa6651 (IWD download check, build4)

When i use this, must I still preload it?

EDIT:

[kung foo man]

That's basically "runtime loading", with a possible delay of a second. I think you didn't called your server-binary "sd.exe" (or didn't start yet ^^), otherwise it should be found by the loop and some inject message shoud appear.

[Ni3ls]

Well when I run the InjectDLL.exe and write

InjectDLL sd.exe libcod2_1_0.dll

and press enter it dissappears immediatly. Even if the server is started.
So I modified InjectLibcod.bat with notepad and changed it to the correct files. Then I get that window that doesn't go away. I tried it with server on and off. No result so far. It's a home-server btw

EDIT: Nevermind! Works like a charm. It was the wrong process name

[guiismiti]

Not sure if anybody is still having trouble using it on windows 7 x64, but I just did it successfully.
I'm using the .dll files from Mitch's repository and the Inject .exe and .bat from Kung.

Which compiler do you use?
I'm trying to add missing functions.

No idea. I just build my source with CodeBlocks 13.12 using GCC 4.7.1 (mingw32-g++.exe) on Windows 8.1.

But investing a bit work, it should work nicely with Visual Studio aswell
