Exemod - Colocando arquivos e strings dentro do exe em runtime

unit ExeMod;

{

This is the first beta of the full version 1.00

That allows an ExeMod exe to work properly even

from a CD..for info on how an exe on CD is handled

please see the notes in the Interface section.

Written by G.A. Carpenter (works on D2 thru D7)

This is FreeWare for any purpose...use as you will.

Consider it public domain... feel free to make

any changes you want... if you improve it I'd love

to get a copy of the improvements :-)

gacarpenter386@yahoo.com <gwen carpenter (Gwena)>

You can use this in any program, commercial or freeware,

and you DO NOT need to mention where it came from.

(no attribution needed)

If you use NT/2000/XP please read the NT-NOTE below!

This unit enables you to make a delphi application that can

alter its own exe file on disk... this appears to happen

at runtime but actually the switch quickly takes place after

a shutdown of the running app during which a copy of the exe

deletes the old version and replaces it with a new version.

While it is also possible to alter a running exe directly by altering

the hd sectors that hold the exe's data. I abandoned that scheme

because although it worked quickly and transparently it proved to

be risky :-(

This unit lets you easily create...

-Self altering exe files

-Program Generators

-Apps that update live over the internet

-Apps that keep an internal record of data

(no ini file or registry usage needed)

-File handling utils

-Copy protection schemes

-Self extracting archives

-Programs that alter and store data in other programs and files.

...and many other strange things ;-)

NOTE! ExeMod will not delete a demarc delimited string from an

external file if the deletion would take the file down to 0 bytes

in length! This is because some disk cleanup utils can be set to

automatically remove 0 length files. If you intend to use an external

file to hold data that will be handled by ExeMod you should begin

by placing at least a single byte of data at the beginning of the file.

------

NT-NOTE!

If you use ExeMod.pas on an NT machine then you may need to run the exe

outside the delphi ide... for some reason NT causes the debugger to

faint at the sight of my code :-) the exe files run just fine on NT

but just not from inside the ide....

-------

Here are some simple demos for you to look over.

(Remember to put ExeMod.pas into your compiler's path or into your

project's directory... then add ExeMod to your program's uses clause)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Code to alter a byte in an exe and then alter the exe at runtime and

put the change onto the exe's file on disk

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);

begin

ReadExe; //Read exe file from disk and put into global string named Exe

Exe[3] := 'A'; //Change byte 3 of Global string Exe

AlterExe; //Alter the exe file on disk then quickly restart program

end;

------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Code to add a file from disk to the end of the exe at runtime.

Assume a small txt file named C:\myfile.txt exists and contains

the text 'test'

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);

begin

AddFile2Exe('gac1','C:\myfile.txt');

AlterExe;

end;

The string 'gac1' serves to locate the data at the end of the exe.

I call gac1 a 'Demarc name' because when combined with a few other

characters it serves as a demarcation line in the exe file... this

gives you an easy way to search through the file and find the location

of the start of your data.

Here is what is added to the exe at runtime when you click the button

SO!#GAC1¶testEO!#GAC1

The data from the file is the 4 bytes 'test' all the rest is just delimiter

data so that ExeMod can locate the data in the exe file.

The Character '¶' in the string is to tell the program where the name

given to the data string ('GAC1') ends. it is chr(182) please do NOT

use chr(182) as a character in any demarc name or you will cause an error!

AddFile2Exe will load the exe from disk if it has not already been

loaded... it checks to see if Exe = '' and if so does a ReadExe;

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

-Code to extract an ExeMod data block from the exe at runtime and save

it to a file on disk... then remove the block from the exe and alter the

exe on disk so that it no longer contains any trace of the data block.

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);

begin

ExtractAndStrip('gac1','myfile2.txt');

AlterExe;

end;

This extracts the ExeMod data block gac1 to a file named 'myfile2.txt'

the file is placed into the directory where the program's exe file is

located.

This sort of code is good for making a self-extracting installation

program in delphi. All of your help files,dlls..etc can be extracted

during the first run of your program... exe size will be small because

the data will be removed from the exe after extraction. All files will

be extracted to the program's dir unless a full path name is given.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Code to save a copy of the running exe

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);

begin

Exe2File('MyNewExe.exe');

Exe := ''; //set Exe to empty string (save space if data no longer needed)

end;

Saves a copy of the running exe as myNewExe.exe in the same directory

where the running exe is. If Exe has been altered the altered version

will be saved... if Exe has not been loaded yet then ReadExe is called.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Code to save a modified copy of the running exe... this simple code

gives you a program generator.

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);

begin

ReadExe;

//add code here to modify the string named 'Exe'

Exe2File('MyNewExe.exe');

Exe := ''; //set Exe to empty string (save space if data no longer needed)

end;

This simple code is actually VERY powerful and VERY useful...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

---> Much more Demo code and many more procedures to come..soon as I

get some more free time :-)
