Interprocess communication with a third-party DLL
Hello!
There is a DLL (ActiveX Plugin for MSIE) which does some nice stuff. I analyzed it, found some places inside where the values I'm interested in are available (e.g. where they are PUSHed). My problem is now to access them not from inside the debugger but with my app. I thought about putting an invisible edit-box and an invisible button into my app and modify the DLL, so it does a SetWindowText with the interesting value (it's a string) and then sends a clicked-message to the button. The only problem is: I have just very, very little Assembly skills and I'm not able to implement that (and FindWindowEx and everything I would also need). So is there any EASIER way to send this string to my app, or is there any good tutorial on how to add this message-stuff to a third-party DLL at Assembly-level? |

OK, this Delphi line does exactly, what I want:
Code:
SetWindowText(FindWindowEx(FindWindow('TADCPwnd', nil), 0, 'TEdit', 'punkrock'), 'my tiny little value'); The values are all constants except "my tiny little value". I looked in my debugger what this code looks like in Assembly language, result: http://home.scarlet.be/~il095280/functioncall.gif (only ~ 4KB) How to insert the function-calls to FindWindowExA and FindWindowA into the other program? Only SetWindowTextA is used on other locations in that program. Please help me! Last edited by aldente; 10-30-2005 at 07:24. |

Hi,
does the dll include something like LoadLibrary and GetProcAddr then you may bind the functions FindWindowExA and FindWindowA dynamically. Therefor you may need to add a new section to the binary or find enough free space. Another solution would be to add a little dll of yours to the program's address space - probably using LoadLibrary - and then to use ReadProcessMemory at the particular address. If you load the process yourself using CreateProcess you don't even have to add a dll to the process. searchme |
