New Unofficial Version - 1.6.5

[SevenOptimus]

Hello again,

 

Apologies for the long delay without any new version.

 

UniExtract 1.7 beta installer: http://sevenoptimus.zxq.net/uniextract17.doc RENAME .DOC TO .EXE!! my webhost doesn't allow .exe files to be uploaded.

 

Please provide any bug reports, etc.

 

Au3 source is also attached for anyone else who wants to contribute.

 

Changelog:  Added (basic) multiple file support;
          a message pops up stating "Would you like to extract another file?"

          actual batch processing of files is coming in 1.8; the GUI code is a little tricky to write
  Added support for modern SIT/SITX files (via The Unarchiver)
  Added support for DMG files (via 7-Zip)
  Added support for DAA disc images (via daa2iso and 7-Zip)
  Worked around 7-Zip bugs by having both 9.20 and 9.32 alpha
  Added support for PECompact executables (via Un2Pec)
  Added an Update Checker that runs at start
  Added an 'About' dialog;
          links to MSFN thread and Update Checker
  Updated ARJ to 3.20

 

Planned for 1.8:

(as above) batch processing of files

cascading context menu (I have to learn COM/ATL !!)

try to find a new extraction method for modern InstallShield CAB files (Unshield seems to work on some but not others)

Thinstall unpacker?

Use Download Manager to get above link from Author's website. "Save As" even in Firefox fails just like IE sometimes does (truncated file). Must be the website.

 

edit - If direct download, size should be EXACTLY "10,273,263 bytes".

 

FYI @anyone - you can use the "official" v1.65 that was released (see first post) and get the "noinst" one, then use it to "extract" the v1.7beta to get your own "noinst" (self-contained in the extracted {app} folder). Get and use Official 7-Zip (free) to extract the RAR file.

 

HTH

 

edit2 @SevenOptimus - Errr, forcing an Online Check for Updates each time you execute? Add that to your Preferences to deselect. Surely that's an easy code change?

Updated to BETA 2.

 

DL: sevenoptimus.zxq.net/uniextract17.doc RENAME .doc to .exe - my webhost doesn't allow .EXE files to be uploaded!

AU3 source attached. Any more bug reports/suggestions would be appreciated.

 

A key change this release is that the Update Checker now actually works properly - AutoIt's InetGet function kept getting 403 forbidden errors so I switched to calling wget - not as elegant, but it now works.

 

Changelog (from BETA 1):

Updated 7-Zip to 9.34 alpha.

7-Zip 9.20 stable is used as a fallback if 9.34 fails.

Update Checker at startup can be disabled.

Update Checker didn't work  - now fixed !! (see above)

AU3 source was tidied up a bit.

UniExtract.au3

Hmmm... extraction for purpose of "noinst" (see previous post above) appears that the Package is "incomplete", e..g. where's the UNIEXTRACT.EXE file? Something wrong with the Installer Build?

 

Try the "extract" on the old Beta package and then the New Beta2. Something odd going on.

[SevenOptimus]

@All: A bug has been found with Beta2 above: AutoIt error in Update Checker. Bugfix release available: sevenoptimus.zxq.net/uniextract17.doc (RENAME .DOC TO .EXE: MY WEBHOST DOESN'T ALLOW .EXEs TO BE UPLOADED!)

 

@submix8c: Please try the new bugfix release in case it was just a temporary glitch/file transfer problem. If problems still occur, I'll investigate further and get back to you.

UniExtract.au3

[submix8c]

Still no extract of Installer possible... What's changed?

[SevenOptimus]

Hmm... it works for me. Can anyone else confirm this?

 

Try just running innounp -x -m -a uniextract17.exe from a command prompt. That should help isolate whether the issue lies with innounp or UniExtract.

[SevenOptimus]

Beta 3 is available. sevenoptimus.x10.mx/uniextract17.exe (I have switched webhost so no more renaming .doc->.exe)

 

Changelog:

Switched MHT Total Commander plugin to more modern MhtUnPack TC plugin.

Fixed some bugs in the Update Checker.

Fixed some bugs in the installer.

Added some missing DLLs.

 

Deadline for bug reports is tomorrow. After that 1.7 final will be released.

[submix8c]

Seems to be OK now (extracts properly). Weird Auto-Update on first execution. Would it be possible for it to -ASK- if you want an auto-update on first exeutution (maybe leave that empty in first install inside the INI and check for it as a "first run" test) -AND- if it "fails to connect" will it still run? Or should I turn off Network and give it a go (haven't test "not-connected")?

 

Other than above, will -not- have time to fully test. "Have grand-kids, must travel..."

 

so far...

[SevenOptimus]

Updated to ask on first run. DL @ sevenoptimus.x10.mx/uniextract17.exe

 

The program does still work if it can't check for updates.

[SevenOptimus]

UniExtract 1.7 is released.

 

DL: sevenoptimus.zxq.net/uniextract17.exe

 

 

UniExtract.au3

[SevenOptimus]

1.8 may take a few months to arrive as there will be some pretty big functionality changes. Lower-risk changes and updates to supporting binaries may be backported to 1.7 as point releases during the development of 1.8.

Are you Russian?

In one of the packages I have our Russian file. (.\uniextract165_noinst\bin\Shell\whatisnew.txt)

Seems that's part of "extsis.exe" - "Aquarius Symbian 9 SIS files editor".
