[Gambas-user] Lorenz

[John R. <joh...@gm...>]

@zxMarce

I think that I've finally worked out how to post to Gambas. It's been 
years since I did it and the email address has changed.

You can email me on joh...@gm...

I've not tried the FIALKA (post war?). Lorenz is purely Gambas. It's 
modified from the original in that some characters are not available or 
difficult to use, as the original used a teleprinter whereas I'm using 
standard GUI constructs. Colossus calls a set of command line modules 
(written in Ada by a German guy, whose name escapes me and whose email 
address I've not found and who won a prize offered by Bletchley Park a 
few years ago): I have the sources for those modules and I used the gnat 
Ada compiler, installed using Synaptic on Ubuntu.

I'm happy to provide all Gambas & Ada sources & Gambas 'binaries', 
together with sample messages including the one used by the German guy: 
both the original and my adapted one where I changed certain keyboard 
characters. I offered the Cypher stuff to the 2 Bletchley Park museums 
but they weren't interested. I did give them to the Computing History 
Museum in Cambridge a few years ago as I also got them working on a 
Raspberry Pi (of which they had a few) but I don't know if they used 
them: the guy I met there seemed to be preparing for a job interview and 
his attention span was short!

John,

I'd be delighted to see your WWII cypher work, especially the Lorenz.
Are you sharing the sources or the binaries?
Also, on cypher machines: Anything about the Russian FIALKA ("violet")?
I think its codename was M-125 (http://www.cryptomuseum.com/crypto/fialka/).

Thanks!

[Gambas-user] Apps

[John R. <joh...@gm...>]

I used to put my Gambas developed apps on a particular website. However, 
I've now lost its URL. Does anyone know the URL of such a site?

I have a number of Gambas apps. I've just changed my iRecorder app 
(which uses the get_iplayer command line program) to operate better. 
This app is a GUI to record BBC TV & radio programmes. At the moment I 
just create  a .deb as I use Ubuntu mainly.

I have a number of other Gambas apps e.g. Enigma cyphering, Bombe 
simulation, Lorenz cyphering, Colossus simulation, Stream Recording. All 
my apps are free of charge. If anyone's interested, post to the user 
list: though I only look at the daily digest.

Gambas 3.9 does not have that problem mentiuoned by richad, since the cited

By example some connection to postgres works for me but others not! and

Gambas only connects to mysql that means connects to scholar used, mayor

[Gambas-user] Q) Again how to downgrade to earlier gambas version - continued postgres problems

[richard t. <rt...@in...>]

Hi List,

I've not found a solution to not being able to access my postgres 
database with gambas 3.11, so I need to be able to downgrade to say 
3.8.4 or 3.9 or therabouts which I know runs.

I've even tried installing mint on a new machine and the same problem - 
an error message when I try and log on 'connection is not static'.

I wonder if any kind soul could explain to me how to downgrade to an 
earlier version.


Thanks


Richard

Does the same code work in a C program? It seems like waitpid() is just what
you need to do after PTRACE_ATTACH, but anyway I'd say it's a good idea to
develop the low-level bits in C first, so that we're sure it's the translation
to Gambas which is faulty, and not the algorithm.

Three other remarks:

  * I'm certainly not running a random somebody's buggy program as root.
    Can't you spawn a child process yourself and then use PTRACE_TRACEME
    for debugging purposes? That shouldn't require root privileges.

  * You should also check return values of system calls.

  * THIS MAILING LIST IS DEPRECATED. USE THE NEW ONE: https://lists.gambas-basic.org/listinfo/user

[Gambas-user] external function freezes

[Demosthenes K. <dem...@gm...>]

Hello, i implemented a ptrace and waitpid external functions in order to 
read/write a memory address of a process.

i want to make a trainer for a game in gambas and i created a small 
program that reads and writes to a memory process.

The problem is that when i try to write to memory it freezes at waitpid 
line.

i attach the test program you have to 1) open it as root 2) run a 
process you want to hack and get the pid 3) scan memory with scanmem and 
locate an address you want to write. 4) run my test program and see it 
freezes.

Any help?

Re: [Gambas-user] Multithreaded Programs

[Jussi L. <jus...@gm...>]

No. It's still state machine. Everything is done instruction by
instruction. If no "quantum instructions" are used, it behaves just like
normal computer.
It would be much like some instruction set extension (like SSE etc). So,
maybe some clever optimizations for multi-threading, but no fundamental
difference.

My foul attitude comes from the belief that the original poster was insulting me which he explained he used terminology that apparently did not cross over from whatever culture to whatever culture. Although I do stand by my thought that programmers just have bad attitudes on all sides. Thank you for your information I have a lot of stuff to look up to try to get that together.
